Im just ahead of ya Got mine 2 weeks ago, had a smashed finger so I waited for it to heal up enough to not hurt every time I moved it. Been working on mine since Friday morning, doing a little bit then taking a break. Had a 4 day weekend.
Got the bed leveled dismorning. Had a few small issues that Colin was quick to reply on so I should be printing in a few days.
Once I get a small desk for it its going into my closet and I will be enclosing/filtering it later so I can do ABS.

Next comes the X Idler assembly and here are the parts required:
And the finished products:
Not much to comment on with these parts... everything is well laid out and goes together easily.

Up next is the metal X carriage and the parts required are shown here:
And the assembled unit looks like this:
I'm really enjoying this build so far... I love kits like this. It's fun seeing a bunch of parts laying on a table start forming into something useful!

I am curious as to how you guys hook the printer up the to atx power supply. Are you cutting off molex adapters? Or wiring molex's to your printer? I am gonna order myself another printer maybe today, just might be this one too. The only part I am not sure on is the power supply, as in trusting a ebay or attempting to make a atx that I trust work with the printer.

I haven't gotten that far yet, but I'll likely be cutting/soldering/heatshrinking the connections. You are having the same thoughts I did with regards to the power supply. I've seen some of the shit that gets passed off as good items on ebay. At least with the Thermaltake ATX that I am using, I know exactly what I have.

Moving on to the extruder assembly next; here are all the parts required
Some of the holes in the printed parts had debris in them which required a little cleaning out but the stringers came out easily
And the finished product!
Chow for now.
