    SmartRap Build - (Frost!) - UPDATED!!

    Just going to start this as a place holder...

    I've started building another Smartrap.

    Fist was just a yellow PLA model which I sold the next day ().
    Printed out a smartrap kit in orange, then decided I don't need another printer - I want to try something different; Now I'm building one for myself, but I'm going to try make it closer to the reprap spirit than most others (fully printable).

    I'm print out as much as possible, designing new parts to strengthen the printed parts and redesigning others.

    My little code-name is FROST (due to the colour).

    I will post up some images here very soon today.

    On a little side note - Does anyone have any ideas for printable vitamins (nuts/bolts)??

    Thought about building something like a split pin or a 'V' shape piece to lock parts together, but I don't think I will bolt motor down using printed parts... Or maybe I will.

    Edit: Some images attached.

    I'd love to print a J-Head body! This is designed to print PLA filament when finished (same as most), I'm building these out of ABS, so it's possible that it will not melt when heated so it could be possible? (CCOOUULLDD!!!!)
