Ok, finally got there smiling smiley

The new arms are on order, these will fit directly onto the Mk2 Ormerod and also onto the Mk1 Ormerod with the addition of this little print (thanks Ormerod168)...

Ormerod RepRapPro 3D Printer. Extra support for the extruder:
[www.thingiverse.com]

Or you can simply print the Mk2 extruder mount.

The price is as before, £40 a set including assembly screws, plus postage of £5 for UK, £8 for EU and £10 for ROW.

I can now take pre-payments to sales@ddmetalproducts.co.uk via paypal.

They will also be going on eBay as soon as ready and on eMakershop too.

I am hoping very much to get these posted before the holiday starts so please get your orders in now smiling smiley

Thanks for the interest

Dave

How much extra weight do the aluminium weigh compared to the acrylic? Awesome work!

I think it's about three times the weight, but in reality it makes no difference, the benefits far outweigh the weight increase.

X-Axis-Plate + X-Rib, acrylic = 139gram
Ditto aluminium = 325gram

There is AFAIK no downside to the added weigh, one upside I can think of is the nozzle can do the shimmy with less vibration, another one would be the aluminium don't suck as much heat as the black body acrylic parts and will help in keeping the ormerod printed parts cooler

Do you think I should wait to mount the ormerod2 for these to arrive or not?
This is not my only printer and I can wait, even if ... Waiting to mount it is getting very difficult!

The arm is a bit of a strip down to fit so if not essential, I would wait.

I think my one took me an hour to fit on a mk1.

I am very happy to announce that the new arms are in, they look excellent too.

I will be preparing them and packing this weekend and all pre-orders will be off to the post office on Monday morning.

Thanks for the pre-orders and yes, I have plenty of stock left so any more who want can order when wanted.

I will not be shipping again until after Christmas though as we are away, you can of course place your orders though.
