Spillski

We spill beer so you don't have to.

This project is in design infancy.

The name comes from another hobby, home brewing. The Spillski will be a cartesian printer similar to the ultimaker2 and replicator2. It is controlled by the Smoothieboard. It will have a 3-way Extuder similar to Richrap's design.

The Smoothieboard can be purchased or assembled. Assembling the Smoothieboard is not the easiest for a novice due to the small SMD devices. If you choose this route, note that you will only save ~$25-$30 and some items will have to be re-spec'ed due to obsolescence. This is the nature of electronics, components are here one day, gone the next.

The ultimate goal of this project is to have a very high print quality. Most of the material will be metal, either aluminum or steal. It will be enclosed and contain polycarbonate windows. All dimensions are in inches. The conversion to metric will be considered. Sorry, the USA will probably never convert, and all of my tooling is in inches.

Designs along with BOMs will be posted on Github. Files will be generated using Solidworks and if needed AutoCAD. Other files will be MS Office 2013. Additional neutral formats will be generated i.e. pdf

Specifications and build instructions will be added as project progresses.
