So I picked up a new 3D Printer - this time went for something a bit more 'Pro' then the previous ones I've had. Also decided to pick up a kit version as it was cheaper by a fair bit, as well as getting to know it inside out by building it myself....

Laying out my work area......

.....and started with the main frame.....

Added the Y-Axis stepper motor......

Then added the bottom frame that holds the heat bed....

Next, time to build up the X and Z axis frames.....

And then the intricate part of constructing the actual extruder....

before mounting it onto the X axis.....lots of cables to tidy up!....

nice one.
I have anycubic i3 mega and it has been really useful plenty of times. I love finding custom usecases around the house. But lately it keeps failing prints so i should get familiar with the internals to be able to find the root cause.
