Beginning with a scrapped RepRap printer and possibly whatever other scrap can be salvaged The idea of this project is to design a custom FDM 3D printer in the most Mad Max possible way.

  • Printer should use 1.75mm filament
  • Cost should remain under $100
  • Prefer to set up for nylon

Dimensions:

  • ??? we dont know yet

Salvaged parts:

  • Stepper motors (x5)
  • Bearings (x6) standard 608
  • Threadstock (x14) Mixed lengths
  • Bushings (x12) Copper 10mm
  • Various small hardware

Need to find/purchase:

  • Belts (length presently unknown)
  • Acme all thread (Thread)(length)
  • Brain (Smoothieboard?)
  • Buildplate glass
  • Hot end (all metal)
