I am ordering the Lego mindstorms kit for my son, although I will probably be playing with it as much as him! and I plan on posting a review on the "toy" as soon as I get a chance - so stay tuned!

Hey Everybody!

Just a quick post / update... I uploaded a new site design today - hope it's better than the last, it seems to me to be better anyway.

The Reprap project is going well, I am working on getting my heated bed installed and getting ready to start printing my first part in ABS plastic! I also spent a little time starting to wire tie all the wires (pictures coming soon!) and also mounting the electronics on the frame, so hopefully by this weekend I'll be set! I still need to find a permanent home for it in the workshop, right now it's sitting on the CNC machine and I'd have to move it to CNC anything, so that's not going to work in the long run...

In other news, my band has finished producing our first music video :) if that interests you check it out here: High Tonight

Ok that's it - I said it'd be quick ;)

Just a quick update - the Rerap project is printing consistently now! - so now it's time to tweak and tweak here and there (and to print some upgrades) :)

it's printing well enough to print some upgrade parts so here's a look at the first "official" parts off of the printer! This also marks the first official multiplied printing - printing 4 parts at a time!

As usual - if you have any questions (or need any parts printed) email me This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and I will soon have parts for the reprap in my store! To start I plan to sell some hobbed bolts made on the lathe, and also some aluminum timing pulleys made on the lathe and 4 axis CNC. After that I will probably sell some complete extruders (including hobbed bolt), and after that we'll see! :)

Here's my journey of building a Reprap 3d Printer. Took about two weeks to get to the point where I was printing and I am still tweaking things to get good prints but it's working well enough to share :)
