Anybody willing to show their Reprap

Hi,

I'm looking to build a Prusa Mendel but also looking to improve on its design. I was hoping if someone in the Sydney area has an active Mendel working and be willing for me to visit to have a look on a weekend.

Let me know. I'll buy lunch?

How can you improve on a great desgin when it's always being imporved on but the desginer..
You should BULID one before you try !!!!!

I think most people on the forum are trying to improve the machine's capabilities regardless of the original designer.

I would love to build one, but I don't have the money I need to buy all components. That's why I want to redesign so it becomes a cheaper unit whilst keeping it's self replication ratio as high as possible.


Have you built one yourself?

Pat.

HI..

Yes, I have a working Huxley, Prusa and a working Mini Prusa which I desgin myself.
I have printed sets of parts to sell and sell ramps here in Australia.

Let me help you on your way.. Send me you home address via a PM and I will send you a RAMPS 1.4 PCB

That's awesome Auzze.

Do you sell a fully constructed RAMPS 1.4? Also do you have stepper motors? Looking for 4 NEMA 17s with >~40Ncm.

Thanks for the offer. Does the board need SMD components?

Hey Auzze

Does the ramp include the arduino by any chance?

Sorry, yes, a mega 1280, but only with the full kit

Hello reprappers and aspiring reprappers (like myself).

I would like to meet reprappers and can suggest a suitable venue with a great synergy.

I am a member of SLUG (Sydney Linux User Group) another highly geek centric group, with I think a compatible set of interests. They hold a regular meeting on the last Friday of the Month in the Google offices, Walsh Bay, just opposite Star City Casino, the meeting starts about 6pm and runs to 8pm or so, full details are here:
[www.slug.org.au]

The meetings are friendly and informal, the administrative issues are dispensed with in moments, then the meeting shifts to the technical things. Sometimes there is a feature presentation (This month it is an update on the OLPC (OneLaptopPerChild) project) , always there is a string of short "Lightning Talks", anyone can present one, no prior registration is required. While it is a Linux group, other open source interests are well embraced.

I would be delighted to meet, hear from or see anyone from the reprap community at this meeting. I can assure a friendly reception.

Regards
Ross Mitchell
