I'm making the Rep(st)Rap redux, using the SVG files from sourceforge:
[
reprap.svn.sourceforge.net]
I'm going to use my school's laser cutter to cut out the parts, rather than go through Ponoko. But I'm a bit confused about what thickness and size of acrylic sheet each file should be cut on. The files I am cutting are:
P1-8mm-extruder-redux
P2-3mm-redux
P3-5mm-redux
P3-MDF-beds-redux
I've heard variously that the '5mm' files should actually be cut on 4.5mm acrylic, that the MDF should be 8mm thick, that the MDF should be 9mm thick ...
Please help clear up my confusion! Thanks.
