Hi everyone,

Does anyone have interested in a reprap build weekend?

I am just posting to see if there is any interest in that. We would ideally like 20 people or so.

Please reply if you are in interested and could make it to the Minneapolis area.

Hey all,

Wow I know that this is late but I have to ask is there going to be another meeting held? I am from Eau Claire but would make the road trip. I would also like to start something in this area.

Thanks
Yes please! Infact I'm dying to get together with some people and learn more about this! I started reading about it online and now I can't stop thinking about these repraps!! Ive been thinking of ways I can build a cheap Lego one so I can print parts for an actual rep rap presa!! Anyway, I'm in lino lakes and would definitely make the drive!!

Hello,
New to this and live in Faribault MN, not to far from the cities and well worth the drive to get together with others. I just finished a build on a MendelMax 1.5 and am working through the calibration now. Would love to talk with others in this community to get ideas and trade some of the ones I have. Let me know if anything comes up again to get together.

This thread doesn't look very active. But I was looking for a group that would be interested in pooling time, resources, skills, etc to build a printer to be shared to build parts for each other's individual printer.

I am in the Mpls area.

Hey People,

I just e-mailed a local hackerspace here in Minneapolis.

Here is the link to their homepage:

[www.tcmaker.org]

I asked if they would be willing to run a build weekend. I'll keep you guys posted if and when I hear back.

Thanks,

Matt

I would like to meet other reprappers. I just got mine printing ....still have issues.

Since I am talking about issues.
Anyone have a clue about the first couple of layers and the hotend dragging
Once it gets through the first 1.5-2mm it prints fine before that though you can see the hotend dragging across the plastic.
Going to check my z axis and extruder calibration tomorrow
