Laser Cut Parts
These Parts need to be laser cut.
- The Wooden box is made from '1/4 in' (.2 in) or 5mm sanded ply.
- You will need a 2ft x 3ft board to do it all. (usually sold in 4 ft sections)
- There is also a Piece made from acrylic, but I haven't designed it yet, so that will have to be put on hold.

Other Parts..
Here are some of the electronics I'm using.
- Extruder -
I'm not sure what this extruder is called, will try to update when I figure that out. - Controller -
This printrboard was made by geeetech, I got it on sale for a great price! :) - Motors - (still need to take a picture) I'm using 5 compact Nema 17 stepper motors. Most Nema17s are pretty similar, but there are some differences, mainly in the wires.
