Ooooh very exciting, cant wait to see finished product and prints!!! Definitely keep us posted please! Kits? Are you planning on offering kits if and when the prototype is done? Just asking..
Thank you for the compliment!
The I3 was a kit I bought myself, but because of some improvements it looks a bit different now. As I mentioned before, I´m have by far not finished my work on the printer yet. Currently I´m working on stabilisation parts and a housing for the electronics - to make it look even more cleaner... It will take some more days until you will see this build in a new outfit.
I do not plan to make a kit out of that, but I´m happy to help others with all my knowledge and experience as long as I find the time to do so.

Am I the only one here using a RepRapPro Ormerod? ;)

It has some key bits replaced from stock:
- Different fan duct ("BigBlue360")
- Aluminium bed support
- dc42's improved IR sensor
- Better PSU (Corsair CX430M)
- Various printed upgrades
Also hooked up to a little wireless bridge thingy so I can put it out of the way when printing (currently sitting on the kitchen table).
Hello,
I'm using a K8200 from Velleman. Aka 3Drag:

I have modified it for better quality. Started with printing ABS last week with quite some satisfying results so far.
Btw the eifeltower is printer in 9 pieces ^^
Here is a picture of my son's printer bench. I know there is room there for at least one more printer? But I am sworn to secrecy for now.
Here's the little beauty I own, a sunhokey prusa i3 😄

Started printing with reasonable results within a few hours.

I think I have the PLA settings sorted, now on to the ABS which I expect to be a bit of a challenge.
Next I want to add another extruder, so I can use multiple colours 🌈 in one print job.

I just purchased a used Prusa i3 which seems to be working for the most part. Previous owner was not the original, and doesn't know details about it. But I want to identify it. There is no maker information on the frame (I believe it is acrylic, not metal or wood). It uses a RAMPS 1.4 board. Can anyone identify it?
Here's why I'm asking: I want to update the firmware to support an LCD display, and also in case something goes up in smoke, I want to be able to get it going again. I have a new Arduino Mega and RAMPS board, and I want to load them with test firmware and use them as the testbed (so I don't screw up the working boards).
Is there a standard firmware download for these boards and this printer configuration, or do I need to start from scratch? Where can I find firmware to load for this printer, and if possible a configuration that might match? Thanks
