Sure I can help you if you need assistance in building one. There are many sources out there to purchase a reprap. I have a huxley which I am not using anymore which I am willing to sell. It needs a little tune up, but I did all the building for you already and It does operate very well. Please let me know.

Well you have to understand that you can build a printer for 200$ (mendel 90 or printrbot) then resell for 500 or so. So its not as high as you think especially if you buy in bulk and also sell online.
Anyways. Would be good to know how others did doing this. Please keep us updated.

Yeah you both have great feedback. I was thinking a similar approach with printed parts available for show. I saw a video of some folks in Germany who setup a kiosk in the town center square with a kinect camera. They took 3d image of people posing in different ways and printed that out for them. Great attraction and personalized and might get the occasional person willing to purchase a printer

Hi all,
Has anyone tried to setup a booth/kiosk at a mall to spread the word and sell 3dprinter kits and fully assembled kits?
I want to know if your experience was good in terms of sales or was just a show for publicity? I was thinking if you can print our peoples names in a cool 3d way (google sketchup) that can sell and then you might get a few monthly sales?
Please let meknow your expeire

May I ask where you got the parts for the mendel max from and what the total price was of all the parts?
Looking forward to your reply thanks
About the boogers, maybe the head is dragging on the surface due to unalignment of the bed? Also check your Z axis raise rate?

One thing for sure is , this will definitely open the doors for more creative people to help advance the Reprap project. With a good first printer, they can print good enough parts to test and begin moving reprap ahead so it stays the PIONEER of the 3D printing rhelm and keep reducing the costs of production. Big corporation is taking over fast. Be it makerbot, or 3dsystems Cubify. But if they

Good Work! I know how that feels. Even after buying a "full kit" from a company, you have to purchase and put more hours than expected to get the results you want.
checkout my blog for stuff related to the reprap Huxley: www.omemon.com
I hope you enjoy your continuation in this community!

yeah that burn leaves a scar. I have a nice nozzle scar on my finger after foolishly trying to adjust the bed while the tip was hot at 220C. yep...

yes would be good if he shares his design as it is derived from some prusa stuff correct?
lookin forward to it. I also think it wont be able to expand in all directions because of wobbling unless there is more support added.
It is a good item to have for cheap in a classroom, but loosing a lot of platform space, but still great to have. It was my reason of getting the huxley originally, so it i

Hi all, Just saw this today on Kickstarter. Interesting approach to make it cheaper. He removed all the triangles. Im thinking it cannot be expanded as he states it can because it will wobble more and more without extra support.
The hot end looks like just nichrome wrapped around, which I've experienced doesn't last too long.
Anyways. Thoughts reprappers? I saw he is using some designs from

@ Spenc, I destroyed 2 tips. the design is known to fail but they keep selling it. i bought a hot tip from the user: CdnReprap. he sells a nice adrian extruder tip for $45 and its working great. The x axis carriage does not grip the tip good at all, it gets pushed out, so i screwed it with a wood screw , lame fix but works so far. The monotronics does not work with Skeinforge latest software so

Agreed,
After starting the project, I used it on my resume and my current employer was very impressed with my enthusiasm for reprap and my ability to even build one from pieces and calibrate it.
Definitely a great project to have on your engineering resume to get back into the workforce and OH a lot of fun!!!!
Thank you reprap community and Dr. Adrian from Bath University.

Thanks!

so in one post, can you summarize what A new techzone build needs in order to not skip z steps? I wonder if Lambert or Kurt know about this. (the techzone crew)

yeah I saw that they use cork plates to reduce the vibrative noise of the motors. I read that that reduces the noise a lot.
Anyways. back to the subject. there needs to be more business out there like the UP! printer business. A device that is cheaper than the UP, but same quality. Time will tell.

Yeah the mosaic looks really nice in terms of print, I think all wooden repstraps have that noise factor though. Anyone can share?
