Introduction

Prusa Mendel is simpler remix of normal Mendel. I want to use bushings instead of regular bearings, right now, my prototype is using two bearings, one for X and one for Y axis. I still need to to design Z-axis but I want to use two motors instead of one as on original. Exact bushings I use are Igus Iglide J http://www.igus.com/iPro/iPro_02_0017_0000_USen.htm?c=US&l=en they are working pretty smooth by I really should get bearign rods instead of regular cheap-o :-) <videoflash>DNRapg2gaPg</videoflash> <videoflash>OchanU6KD3Y</videoflash>
