Any Interest in Laser Cut CupcakeCNC (Makerbot) Parts?
April 13, 2010 11:22AM
I am starting a Makerbot clone project. I have access to a cnc laser at work so I am cutting my own plywood and acrylic parts to save a little dough. Is there any interest in me cutting additional sets for anyone? I am not looking to start a business for these parts just help out someone trying to get started.

If there is interest, reply, pm me, or email: d.e.ferrier (at) gmail.com

I look forward to helping some fellow repstrappers!

Are these from their latest build? Because some of the parts on the xy platform were changed.

I am using the most recent files that they have released on their subversion site. The url is listed below. Do you know what the changes are? I could check. I will test fit the first set to make sure they fit up.

Interesting. You may want to look into your local RepRap User Group:
[forums.reprap.org]

Also, you may want to make a [reprap.org]
(If you do, please buy a set of electronics from Kymberly if you don't have electronics.)

Remember, you're all RepRap developers (once you've joined the super-secret developer mailing list), and the wiki, RepRap.org, [reprap.org] is for everyone and everything! grinning smiley

I have looked into this a little. If you go here, you will see the old version versus the new version of x platform pieces. I will cut the new version.

This is the surface that the part is built on.


I have had one person want the electronics panel. Anyone else? I will be renting time tomorrow. I can do it again but only if there is enough interest.
