Hey everyone! My Ultimaker is up and running in Fredericton. If there is anyone else around that wants to collaborate or print something, let me know and we'll work something out. Find me @RickMcCaskillby Rick McCaskill - Canada, New Brunswick RUG
Well, I seem to have been able to answer my question. According Zach on "most of the pieces should be 1/4" thick. there is one piece that should be 1/2" thick which is the 'vertical base' part." I'm just wondering if these are still correct. That post is 1+ years old now.by Rick McCaskill - Reprappers
Maybe it's just me... but I'm having a heck of a time finding out exactly what thickness acrylic I should use. The parts list (http://parts.reprap.org/part/module/McWire+Cartesian+Bot+v1.2) doesn't mention it at all. I realize that it DOES mention 'lasercut' parts. But, it doesn't give any specifics. Neither does the McWire page (http://dev.www.reprap.org/bin/view/Main/McWire_Cartesian_Bot_1_2)by Rick McCaskill - Reprappers
I'll give that a try. Thanks, James.by Rick McCaskill - Reprappers
I'm working on a McWire as well following the instructions here: Though the instructions are the best I've seen around (Thanks Zach), I'm finding it hard to follow also. A couple examples: What thickness acrylic do I use? What kind of skate bearings do I use? The parts list says 'Skate Bearings'. I assume all bearings aren't created equal.
