Sorry for the late response, S&H is what set me back for the most part. The rest is my fault, procrastination is a terrible habit, I know. I have definitely considered linear rails as opposed to rods. I may have to bootstrap this by carving wood though.by RepRandy_1 - Mechanics
This is good advice, but I'm sticking with the frame made out of plywood idea. Again, time and budget constraints. Some day I'll upgrade to makerbeams, but I won't be using any now. So anyway, no smooth rods then?by RepRandy_1 - Mechanics
So hi, I'm new. I'm looking into building a Prusa i3 clone with a box frame. I'm already at an awkward start because of a limited budget and time, plus I just had to buy a large heated bed/platform. It's 300x300, and I'm want to finish this with as little mistakes as possible. I know I need the timing belts, rods, and bearings, if anyone can help me out, or pm me with advice.
