i3 in a Box - Joe's RepRap
Description
I Designed This Printer To Get A Very Rigid And Easy Boxable Construction Without Any Too Complicated Mechanics. I Used Many Parts Of My Old Prusa I3 - So Basically, It'S An I3 With A 2020 Aluminium Frame Inspired By Haeckel, And Most Of The Prusa I3 X Or Y-Axis Parts Will Fit. This One Uses 8Mm Trapezoid Threaded Rods With 17Mm Nuts, Feel Free To Build It With Any Other I3 X-Ends. The X-Carriage Is A Modified Version Of Clefranc'S Universal X-Carriage: Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:97719 Just Added A Small Piece To Hit The Endstop Switch. I Like Ffleurey'S Direct Drive Extruder: Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:147705 Download It There Or Use Any Prusa I3 Extruder You Like, Or Use A Bowden Setup As Shown In The Second Picture. For Endstops, I'M Using Some Like These, Or Just Be Creative: Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:1037870 Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:30085 Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:85368 Print Space (Depending On Extruder Design) Is 200X200X210Mm, With Enough Clearance On X-Axis To Add A Dual Extruder. Anyway, Dimensions Are Easy To Vary By The Lenght Of The Aluminium Extrusions. *Update 22 April '15: Some Minor Changes... - Clearance To Insert Tr8 Nuts - Made Belt Guides A Bit Wider - Made Tensioners Wider - 3-Way-Connector Is Now More Printable And Has More Clearance *Update 19 Aug '15: Changed Length Of The Extrusions. 430Mm Just Wasn'T Enough For Y-Direction! *Update 09 Okt '15: Uploaded A New Version Of The Bearing Clips And A Belt Holder With Tree Holes For The Printbed. Seems Like The Drawing I Referred To Was A Quite Old One, These Should Fit Much Better. *Update 25 Okt '15: Added/Modified The X-Carriage, New Picture
