If anyone tells you they're thinking of building the Prusa Mendel design, gently advise them it's a huge POS of a design. Sure it's relatively inexpensive but there are many far better and easier to assemble designs that have been made since. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQuUqd9ldUU I'm mentally working on a design built from 40/40 extrusion, connected with both the end to side fittings and inside corner brackets at every joint. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.
