Did people really expect a company called Pirate to be worth sending money too?
Obviously this thing will be way out of my price range, and even if I had the cash, I would probably choose to do something else, and knowing Canon they will hold features back, so you need the new...
Bobby's comments are on the money, and sound like the most compatible route, bio-polymers very interesting if you have the backgound and know what to do, or can easily find additional reading...
Moore's Law is not as certain as Murphy's Law, Price point's can stay the same while the technology or features improve.
I can't work it out from your edit but assume it's probaly half the flex in your rods, maybe even less due to the shorter rods. (but then I do have a little extra weight on the end of the rods/...
There was a news story on the other day where hospitals or printer manufacturers where trying to justify the £700 printed heart, I don't think they used flexible material just a rather expensive...
I have 300mm 8mm rods, not sure of the exact weight of the carriage 3-400g, they are not supported both ends at the moment, the arm's more likely to want to bend at the point where it meets the Z.

Must be really frustrating trying to teach your boring lesson, to an 8 year old with internet device and a knowledge of google, challenging your every word.
I wonder if these kids lives are...
3D Rapid Rickshaw Printing condems kitten to a life running tourists round Bangkok.
Yes I wonder the same thing, maybe if L shaped inserts and external corners, and any other buttress triangles where used and they where all metal, it could be made quite stiff, but still having it...
Handy to know added to bookmarks, will no doubt need some in the future, right now I could reall make use of 8mm insets, ideally 15mm diam'. 15mm length, with flange would also help. Keep me posted...
Because I lost both my thumbs in a drone attack.
I realize it's probably not the way to do it, but was working on the gimbal before the printer, and the thought of software contol of the pan &...
and here's your second one :)

Ok still some way to go yet before it's working, as has been...
Pity they dont mention what 3D printer was bought?
Just looks like a re-housed leap or kinect at the moment, can it run windows8.1 and use apps already made for kinect(or get a windows dongle to do the same), if it can do much higher rez 3D scans 360...
in 2050 someone will build a fungal based nanomite replicator without a nanomite containment shield(as that was already patented in 2049) as a result the planet is reduced to slime by 2060.
With some sceintist rushing to patent low cost production of graphine, I wonder if that would help in plating, Graphite/graphene? Maybe if you got on the trail of graphine(or at least a use for it)...
Less form filling more Producing! I went to a conference the other month called "the Future of Skills", the speakers managed to talk all day without mentioning which skills are needed for the...
Imagine how many different machines you could build for 40k, teach that and you have a winning course.
Is the accuracy the same as it was before update?
Good to see an update to Marlin, nice to know its not been forgotten.
Which is the reason all these new softwares that allow you to start your jobs by phone are a little dangerous. Get Home to find your house is somewhere in the Clouds
Depends. if you can get your hands on some old printers for rails, and salvage any other items, it wouldnt cost much at all. Maybe the Printed kits have a package weight and you could workout how...
If you want to get a job Solidworks would be high on the list of software to learn, or Catia/Inventor/Pro-E
But if you want to try something different have a go with IRONCAD or Innovate, A joy to...
