Looking for a reprap kit for around 500$

[Stigern]

Since my last post above, I've had to replace a few electronic pieces as well as new rods and bearings. I'm not sure where you're buying from, but I strongly suggest going through a reputable outfit. I chose the "cheap" route buying from China and I'm paying for that mistake. I've invested about 8 hours building it, and 20 hours troubleshooting/calibrating, and I still have not had one successful print! I should have just bought a Taz5.

Yes, it is risky. But I'm willing to take my chances on this one. (famous last words)
