I am also interested! Only have a few of the thick cut parts to make and then it is only the RP parts that I am missing!by rhmorrison - For Sale
WOW - just think of the possible usable print area with that thing! You could probably do 50 cm x 50 cm by 30 cm high! Of course the build time would be also proportionally longer.by rhmorrison - Mechanics

YES that would be the way to go to quickly produce sets that could be sold to get a good number of Mendels out there but it requires: A full set of high quality Mendel parts (nophead?) to make the moulds from... And either several runs, e.g. 6 frame vertices = 6 runs or 6 moulds... Someone willing to take this on as a project. I suspect that you could easily sell 100+ such kits in a very short tby rhmorrison - For Sale

Re: Melting point? Posted by: nophead () Date: December 19, 2009 01:53AM ABS softens at 90C, melts at 105C, can be extruded at ~180C but needs to be ~240C to bond strongly to itself. HDPE melts at 130C, extrudes at similar temps to ABS. PLA softens ~50C, melts at ~ 160C, extrudes and bonds well at 180C-190C. I would be very surprised if a glue gun gets anywhere near the 240 degrees Celsiuby rhmorrison - General

Hi Guys. ich komme aus Karlsruhe und hoffe Anfang Februar ernsthaft anfangen ein RepRap Mendel zu bauen. MakerBot platinen sind im Post, momentan fehlen nur die thick cut parts und die RP teilen. Alles anderes hab ich schon gekauft. ich hab ein Arbeitskollege das auch ein Mendel bauen will aber will erst anfangen wenn wer weißt das er die RP Teilen von jemand bekommen kann.

I managed to put the SVG in order by hand editing the SVG (XML) file. Now everything appears to be correct but Ponoko.com still won't accept the file. Have sent it to them and asked what is wrong with it. Has anyone ordered the thick sheet for Mendel from Ponoko? And if so, how much does it cost?by rhmorrison - General

Who is shown on this map? Members of the "contributers" group? There are so many people requesting the RP parts for building a Mendel I thought it would be interesting to have a separate Google Maps page with just people who need RP parts with the idea being that it is more interesting to provide parts to someone living near you. Just a thought.by rhmorrison - Administration, Announcements, Policy
I'm in Germany (near Karlsurhe). I have only found the normal steel bar (i.e. RUSTS). BMZ or A2 bar I haven't found yet. The normal hardware store chains here are BAUHAUS and HORNBACH und neither carry A2 steel bar. And the aluminum bar is very pretty, but I assumed that it probably isn't stiff enough for it's purpose in the Mendel.by rhmorrison - Mechanics

Have you thought of converting the STL to VRML and then let the browser VRML plugin take care of the GUI. Then they could move it around just as you can a loaded STL object in the RepRap software.by rhmorrison - Administration, Announcements, Policy
