if you bought the parts seperately, about $400, but in a kit with everything ready was about 600, but now I know what's in it and what I can get parts for, it wont be anything near that price.
#1 most expensive item is the bearing sliders for the arms, from $50 onward each... i see now why people use V-slot runner wheels instead ...
The aluminum bars are $18 for 1 meter, I bought 10 meters, but you need to calculate your grinder size as you will lose like 3mm per cut, the black are like out of stock everywhere .
M3 screws are much required in this kit, there is 16xM3-15 in each base foot, 5 in each top..
Allen key / spring / safety pin / endstop microswitch makes up the autolevelling feature..
Traxas rod ends and graphite rods so easy to get... everyone has got them...
The speed is unbelievable from what I have seen, for me it means double the reliable speed at 150ms feed rate.
My round glass plate that came with it is 180mm, but I have a boroscillate round glass at 170mm and a 160mm round hotbed, so will prob use the 170mm.
I find height is what I want more, and the kossel mini is rated to 240mm high prints! so I will have a print area of 170x170x240
Kickstarter campaing LEGENDARY...
