Our 3d printer based on the Prusa i3 design.

Specifications

  • Maximum print sizes: 170mm, 170mm, "a lot" (x,y,z). However the printing will suffer from "warping" much before those limits are reached.
  • Minimal print resolution: ?, ?, ? (x, y z).
  • Extruder nozzle size: 0.35mm
  • It can print overhangs of <45degrees without scafolding.


Printing supplies

  • 3mm PLA (hard and britle, doesn't warp much, biodigradable)
  • 3mm ABS (soft and tough - LEGO like plastic, warps much more the PLA)

Toolchain

  1. Make or download 3d objects in STL format.
  2. The slicer software (Slic3r) will generate the actual printer commands (G-code).
