Printed Mechanical Bottom Feeder Mod

[2pak2zero]

BTW, got a lathe for Christmas and leveraged it for one of these:

Kossel 250 V-Slot 3D Printer - DIY Kit [BETA] - UltiBots LLC

Should ship the week of the 12th. Anyone have experience with a Kossel style delta printer?

(Yes I realize it won't be the quality of SLS prints, but one of those isn't in my budget)

Polished white kit please.


You have a coupon code? Magic15?

Very interesting. I might just have to be a guinea pig on that. My biggest gripe with the printed shells is they always seem to have some remanence of scan lines no mater how much you sand.

I ordered a kit already
My understanding is it needs to be mixed with a choice of color (think cerakote)To get rid of the print lines BUT i cannot find the info on the paint needs to be used with the mix ???

 

[TheTurk]

Sweet! Let us know how it works. I am doing 2 GNDAs and 1 peko right now. But can't wait on that stuff to come in to finish them. But I am doing the acetone and super glue again. This time I am going to experiment with dissolving some enamel paint in along with it.

Will do ...

+100 this. Dna40 was not announced when the coop went through so I underestimated my needs.

They have a shop just a couple of miles from here. I guess I will have a little field trip on Monday....

I have 3 Peko's sitting on the shelf and this stuff seems to be worthwhile trying.
I let you know how this goes.

I have an email into to them asking if they would be willing to offer a discount code again.

Great let us know how it goes, i knew i waited too long to order this time

 

[xtreme101]

I put a couple of printed sets in my shopping cart without checking out last night. I'll wait now a bit and see if they send me any discount coupons.

Ambassador all caps, may have been for first time buyers

Dark brown and "puke" brown from Sculpteo, finally finished them . . . great potential once I get better coils in there.

First one took about 2 hours with errors, second one was a breeze (probably 45 minutes)
