Im a mechanical engineering undergraduate from India. For my final year project, my team and i are gonna build our own 3d printer. To get started we hav decided to build an existing model. We have chosen The Ultimaker as it has a effective design and the ultimaker community is vast and also very helpful.
All our parts have been sourced and we have just started the assembly. We should be able to make our first print within a week.I will post results as soon as we re done. Any suggestions and comments will be much apreciated.
We have made some changes to the standard Ultimaker. We are using ramps 1.4 electronics with SDramps and LCD, 12v 240w power supply, Reprap thermocouple sensor panels, H3 extruder by Chopmeister, Owens Bowden clamps, GT2 timing belts and pulleys intead of MXL.
Also if anyone wants a BOM or suppliers list, we can make it available.We can also provide laser cut panels set at a reasonable price. Pl contact me at namith_1990@hotmail.com . Ill post pictures shorly!!!
