Thank you skarab for the awesome design. I wanted to know at what speeds have you used your iTopie and what is your preferred speed. I detect some resonance and vibrations when I print at slow speeds like 30mm/s.by kaustubh - General Mendel Topics
I have finished my iTopie build and I am very happy that I chose this printer over others. I just love how much more rigid it is than my old 8mm acrylic frame Prusa. I have written 3 blogs on the following themes: 1. Why iTopie? 2. Building the frame 3. Final assembly of the printer I have tried not to repeat too much of what is there on the already very good build wiki. I have mainly highlighby kaustubh - General Mendel Topics
Hi skarab, I just went n picked up the frame, all parts are there, no missing foot. Also, I had an extra frame cut to help those who want to make an itopie and don't have access to a CNC. So, anyone in India, just ping me and I can deliver you the frame. Will reach out with more updates on the build.by kaustubh - General Mendel Topics
Hi All, I have just started my build of iTopie in India. I have started a blog to document this : . I would love to hear from you guys. This will be my 3rd reprap, 1) Prusa Rework (bought as a kit) 2) Cyclone PCB Factory and now 3) iTopie. Considering I bought my first 3d printer in 4 months ago, I think I have gotten addicted to this very time consuming activity . But anyways, wish me luck anby kaustubh - General Mendel Topics

A break down of the cost: Rs 2500 for high quality water proof MDF, could hv saved some bucks here but wanted no compromise on the material. Cutting of 2 frames Rs. 3000 500(??) handling charges. I m not making any money on this, just want to let ppl know thr is a frame waiting for them, if they want itby kaustubh - India RUG
Hi, I recently got a couple of itopie frames cut using 18 mm mdf.(the 16mm MDF used in the original itopie is not widespread in India). I am located in Bangalore. I will sell the frame for around 3k. Please reply if anyone is interested in this.by kaustubh - India RUG
Hey there, Great to find a fellow builder in India. I have found eBay.in, diy-India.com, makemendel.com, 3dprintronics.com, aliexpress.com have all the things on offer. Indian hotends/nozzles, bearings etc are expensive. Best buy those from aliexpress.com, but it takes a 20 days to get delivered. Also make sure that the delivery is through China Registered Air Mail only. I haven't receivedby kaustubh - India RUG
