Mendel building
We have plans to build two mendels this summer in the Helsinki hacklab.
We have
- One set of mendel RP parts, another one is ready, waiting for payment etc.
- Fasteners, but not everything needed
- Two bearing sets have been ordered
- One old set of electronics tied to a WIP cnc. Would prefer to get new kits instead of using these
- Some smooth bar from printers etc. but need more. Especially >495mm 8mm thick
- Some studding
TOGET
- Motors

- Smooth bar

Sprints

Official RepRap Suppliers
Local Suppliers
Local Shops may be better or worse than buying from online retailers. This depends on your local shops and what you're getting. Stepper motors you'll want to get online, steel rod - perhaps not. Fasteners, it depends. You may want to check your yellow pages to look these up, as opposed to online.
- Local Steel Suppliers (e.g. Construction suppliers)
- Local Bearing Suppliers (Skateboard Shop)
- Local Fastener Suppliers
- Local Electronics Suppliers
- Local Machine Tool/Industrial Supply, (Occasionally unwelcome to hobbyists, but who knows?)
- Local Electronics Surplus Shop

(For all those tiny drill bits for the nozzles.)
