Heaven help me - I've just bought a delta kit :-)

[curious aardvark]

given the sheer heavidutiness (yeah it's a word) of the 30x30 struts and corner pieces and the fact that I'll have reinforcing bars about 2/3 of the way up (also necessary for the control panel if the printer is on a desk) and an aluminium plate on the base. Also the commercial units will have a top aluminium plate as well. The BB will have a plywood top, so I can move stuff around easily.
Definitely only need one set of horizontals.
Don't forget, all the gear: steppers, psu, motherboard, will be top mounted.
Probably go for a side mounted filament holder, you won't want to stand on a chair to do it.
The only thing going at the bottom is the heated bed, which will be manually adjustable. After the recent threads - going to avoid topographical mapping completely. It's definitely not necessary as long as you have an adjustable bed.

Until I get the cupped magnets and wheels and pulleys - don't know how big the carriages will be - so won't finish the corner pieces with the pulley until I get those.

It does mean I'll need to print an extra set of corner pieces - but at 480 grams a set - I can live with that.
Finally found some decent priced wheels last night. Sets of 9 - so bought 2 - came in at £6.80 - so about 38p a wheel (under 50 cents).
White with bearings.
Haven't decided on final colour scheme yet - but probably go with white pla as it contrasts well with the silver aluminium. Plus it's really hard to see the print lines of white pla :-)
Or I might go with black - or red.

I don't really do colours lol

Currently contemplating whether to buy a set of metal nema 17 brackets or print plastic cages.
Probably go for the metal, for longevity. Plus they aren't exactly expensive.

Cost is currently at £270 and I think, just the printbite (and motor brackets) to go. Though I am also thinking about a volcano hot end with gears.
But should still come in under the £350 mark and that's with upgrading almost everything compared to the k200.

I'll get the frame up this week and cut the top board and maybe get the aluminium cut as well.
