Anyone supplying printed prusa parts?

Hi all,

I'm looking at building a prusa mendel, is anyone up-and-running enough to print out parts? Or is Vik still NZ's main supplier?

I'm in Hamilton so Vik is probably the closest, but postage is nothing compared to the cost of everything else.

I am in Hamilton (well, out near Ngahinapouri actually). I should be able to do you a set - I haven't printed prusa parts before, but have previously done two mendel sets, with another about half printed.

Cheers,
Len.

Just out of interest.
There are a few components that ive been having a bit of trouble finding suppliers in NZ, such as the 608 bearings and belts
any wisdom on this matter would be appreciated.

608 bearings - at any local skate shop in any town

We've started a viral plastic effort which hopefully should grow exponentially - we'll let people know when more slots are available
