Openbuilds
Carl Feneck design modded to the Triplebot – I think Adam did that. I built mine almost the same time but never posted it. My belt design is much simpler. I love this machine. Mine is turned around so the motors are in the rear. It is also 12x12x12 build platform. I can send you whatever you need, but maybe by now you are already there. If you post and I don’t respond >> bartipsnews at gmail

In reply to marph. It does in this case because the non-i3Plus version does not use the newer board that the Plus uses and doesn’t have the extra pin header.

Does it make sense to change to ramps? You can use the EXT-10-Pins on melzi for adding BLTOUCH or other sensors or functionality to the Wanhao i3? Take a look: http://drucktipps3d.de/pin-belegung-wanhao-i3-melzi-board/

I would like to build a good core xy machine, but I am struggling to find good info. I would like to use real linear rail rather than smooth rod or v wheels, with three belt synchronized lead screws for the Z stage. What do you think would be the best place to start looking for ideas and references?

It is slightly flexible depending on the thickness. More like really stiff ninja flex. Here is a video of a test strip flexing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNDYFz-1qtc

Hey mate.

Can you please compare this resin to FDM ABS. Is it as tough and flexible or will it snap as regular resin? Can you post a short video showing how it breaks (at what point after bending). Maybe you can print a sample plate (40mm long, 10wide and 1mm thick for example).
Thanks
PS: Do you know of any distributor of this resin in Australia?

“I started down the path to upgrade to a RAMPS control board. Ultimately that is where I will probably go with this printer. But for the moment, while making”

I’m driving right now but here is a link to my old Dropbox repetier I did for ramps. I can’t verify the usability of it since I don’t have ramps anymore but I think it was in working order.
