Are these all the parts I will need to print for my Prusa i3?

I am planning to build a Prusa i3 with a single frame. Are these the only STLs I will need to print for a single plate frame?

I thought the "official" Prusa i3 information is [github.com]

I was having a hard time figuring out the instructions.

It depends what version of i3 you want to make.
The original "vanilla" stl's can be found here:
[github.com]
Click the "download ZIP" button to get all the files.
From that zip I would use the X, Y, Z parts and the belt guide for 623 idler bearings.
The i3 we recently built used a "wades" extruder. We had to use OpenSCAD and compile the stl's ourselves when we made spares of the extruder etc
[github.com]
The "vanilla" uses LM8UU linear bearings for the X, Y and Z axis and M10 and M8 threaded rod for the Y-Frame

The popular i3 "rework" of the original design uses the same LM8UU linear bearings but all M10 threaded rod for the Y-Frame
You can find the stl's here:
[www.thingiverse.com]

Our next builds are the "rework" design.

Hope this helps
Steve

I am making one with a single frame. I have already started printing the parts from the website I first posted. Are these correct? If not what is?

Thanks

They should work. Personally not what I would use.

If you use them let us know how the build goes.

Cheers

I have already printed most of it and will try it, but in case it does not work, what would you use?

Either the vanilla or rework - lots of build info on them.
