Does anyone have a working dremel-head that I could print either for the RepMan or for one of the others (so I´d have to adapt the model)? There are so many people talking about milling, somebody ought to have designed this already.by MarcusWolschon - CNC Routers, Mills, and Hybrid RepRapping
As the RepMan (and of cause Makerbot, Darwin and Mendel) allow for exchangable tool-heads... who would be interested in designing some? I guess a simple dremel-holder for RepMan attached to the 3x M5 holes it has as a toolhead-mount would be the most interesting one. But something simpler like a pen-holder would be a good way to get people started.by MarcusWolschon - Let's design something! (I've got an idea ...)

What´s the shipping to Germany for 5Kg. And I guess then we have to multiply the sum by 1.065 for customs (plastic->other->other) and then by 1.19 for import-sales-tax .by MarcusWolschon - For Sale

Ah, mea culpa. I thought about rope, not steel wire. I thought steel wire would cut into printed parts too easily. How it that setup tensioned?by MarcusWolschon - Reprappers
Sorry but your cable_pull_x_drive will not work with the precision required. I'm currently designing a carthesian-bot that should work but AoI is crashing on me all the time and boolean operations take minutes after you subtracted 3 objects already.by MarcusWolschon - Reprappers
> Do you have a picture of a "cable-pull" that you have in mind? The term is too generic for me to look up on google. No problem. The mass should be as small as possible. I have some design-ideas that only have the tool-head as a moving mass. Streching is a property of the type of string you use and some testing should be done. A sensible rope that is not hollow streches very little and ifby MarcusWolschon - Reprappers
From what I see on your design you used the wire directly, without a cable-pull that will easily provide any tension required. With flexible Nylon-rope instead of rigid wires you will not require as much tension. The rolls can contain a hole for a skateboard-bearing to give little resistance. As for the rigid frame. That is something that is easy to change using the maker-beams. After all, we aby MarcusWolschon - Reprappers
I had an idea on how to have a larger percentage of the parts of a RepRap being printed. Why not get rid of the steel-rods, threaded rods and pulleys? Instead of printed gears that never fit perfectly and thus have backlash and a but of free motion when vibrating I thought about using rope instead as an alternative to threaded rods. We can easily build cable-pulls instead of gears. They can beby MarcusWolschon - Reprappers

Hello, for an helmet-like object I require a hollow half-sphere. Any ideas how to print such a thing because of the restrictions on overhang? My best idea at the moment is to segment it. Have the outher side of each segment round and the inner flat (because the inner side sits on the printing bed). Then combine them with screws and either rips or small helper-objects that go between 2 such segmby MarcusWolschon - Let's design something! (I've got an idea ...)
Displaying the NAME of the object in the overview would be a definite improvement. And when I click on it I would expect a text-area with a description of the object's purpose (optional: required tools, settings, who submitted it, tags, version,...)by MarcusWolschon - Administration, Announcements, Policy
