Topic: need a co-worker to help making a printer.

hi folks
i need a coworker to help with a project; make my own 3d printer.
the beauty there is that you get your 3d printer as well.
you help for the electronic and some fany extruder desing
i get the box done and cnc machine all the part to make it work.

i have a cnc milling, a lathe and the tools to make some good quality harware.

what i need is someone to have the knowledge to sort out the electronic side of the beast.

i am thinking wireless capability as well as wired, super fast heating bed and heater core, bulletproof boards. 300mm x 300mm x 300mm of printing surfaces with incredible extruder precision. 

i need someone who can make 3d desing that is accurate and machinable(since its going to be made on a cnc) i dont steal other peoples work neither and dont want to copy stuff.

if we both pay for our own stuff(boards, bearings, ballscrews), we should get a dual extruder printer going pretty soon for a relativly cheap price.

pm for any questions.

Re: need a co-worker to help making a printer.

Is this your first 3D printer
If so I would get some hands on experience
with a kit and then go from there

I learned a lot from the build of an Ordbot Hadron kit

"desing"   what does this mean?  designing?  design?

I would stick with a known electronics design
RAMPS1.4 or Azteeg X3  with known arduino software environment

Re: need a co-worker to help making a printer.

i think its fine for the hands on experience assembling parts smile

still looking for a good electronic guy to get that thing done.
arduino boards with wi-fi and usb.   running servos ideally. . . . .5 or 6 of these.
