Building a proper flightcase for a Cerberus-derived delta 3D printer. It ought to be flexible enough to house both the newer -printed- model and the original model in ways that even rough treatment will likely be survived gloriously.
Challenges:
- Find ways to keep weight limited so it can still be carried by a single person.
- Determine how to best design inside of case to accommodate the different variations of the cerberus.
- Find some way to cut foam into arbitrary shapes
- Find affordable sources for support foam and 'hang en sluitwerk' plus wheels.
