I am very interested in your build. I am converting a Uconduit H-bot to CoreXY. Still in the initial building phase, not exactly sure how I am going to do the conversion. I printed a Corexy carriage, but I think I am going to have to do some hacking to make it work.

How about the new ED3 Big box
Designed to be hachable and fully open source.

675 £ for the dual extruder kit. And these come with the ed3 v6 arguably the best hot end on the market.

options options options.

Not sure which is harder selecting the first printer or the second.
budget? what do you feel comfortable spending?
Materials ? high strength materials require higher heat so you need a good hot end.
bowden style extruders tend to run faster as the motor is mounted on the frame less mass higher acceleration.

I have had an sd4 for a year I have pondered 3 options. for next printer

1) makerbot clone ie flash forge with metal frame. But at around $1300 retail not doing it.
a) a deal on above have been looking .
b) ctc printer $500 concerned about quality.

2) a Kossel delta kit from folger tech add metal connectors effector and mounts for the arms. probably about $450-$500 when I am done.
3) a solid self built machine with quality parts like rumba board , Quality import PS ED6vs extruder(s) aluminum carriages welded frame .

Other than the Site needing some work so the home page doesn't have a "page not found" message, could you please move this to the B/S/T section if you are trying to sell a service.

I decided to build my own for the ultimate in hacking and modding :-). I'm by no means finished yet, but I think I'm making progress. Most of my work so far is documented here: http://home.comcast.net/~tomhorsley/har … orexy.html

Right guys,

Thinking of considering my next 3D printer but not sure what to get?

I need to be able to 'hack' and modify it and preferably dual extruder or more

Hopefully you could help

Thanks
