- Screws, bearings, pulleys, belts, springs and insulating tape (of course)
- Hobbed bolts?
- Hot ends?
- Motors?
- Z probe servo?
If you have stock MakerFarm-shipped RAMPS electronics, you might also need
- A4988 driver board
- RRD Fan extender
to control the extra motor and print cooling fan.
Everything (except the RAMPS electronics) can be sourced from a combination of MrMetric, MakerFarm, Pololu, McMaster Carr, HobbyKing, Harbor Freight and a couple of Chinese eBay sellers for around $253, including shipping to the US (2-3 weeks). I'll upload a shopping list soon.
I've been investigating volume pricing, and I could probably offer an all-inclusive kit (everything except the RAMPS electronics) shipped Priority Mail in the US for a little less (maybe $230, depending on sourcing).
