Introduction

Reprap Wilson is a descendant of the Prusa i3 style reprap.

The main goal of Wilson was to replace the frame with one built from standard Aluminum extrusions (2020). Additionally, the design has a parametric build area, meaning it is relatively easy to scale the X, Y, and Z axis within reason. I've also made an effort to reduce the number of unique parts used as much as possible, and incorporated some other design ideas that I have tried on the Prusa i3 previously (monolithic Y ends, easy adjustment of the Z limit switch, integrated endstop holders, among others).

The standard BOM is for a 210mm x 210mm x 200mm build area.
