Make a Big 3D Printer at Home Using Arduino


Recommended Posts

I am interested in DIYing a 3d Printer at home. This is my first to start a project. Firstly, I need to calculate what materials, components and supplies

are needed? This is the Electrical Components Required.datsheet

Ramps 1.4 controller board x 01 Nos.

Optical endstop switch x 03 Nos.

NEMA 17 stepper motor x 05 Nos.

PCB heatbed x 04 Nos.

E3D v6 hotend x 01 Nos.

A4988 stepper motor driver x 04 Nos.

Power supply 12V/20A x 01 Nos.

ATMEGA16U2 Microcontrollerdatasheet

Is that all? I am not sure.Thanks for you sharing your advice

Are you designing from the ground up? Or going from a kit?

There are pre made plans out there. Print parts, assemble, and go.

Voron, ratrig, hypercube, railcore.

For endstops: I prefer mechanical

Though for your Z axis, you might be better off with a bltouch or similar as that'll let you do offsets and bed leveling without having to dick around with 4 corners and paper.

Little hard to judge other bits without specific info. Like... Why are you doing 4 PCB heaters as opposed to one from keenovo? Will a 240w PSU keep up with that?  etc


Open offer: If you need any 3d printed brackets or whatever for assembly, HMU and we can work something out. I can print anything short of PEI parts on my end. Can to PEEK / PEKK, but only small stuff.

I just got into printing shit myself. Fun lil hobby. I just bought one. They are relatively cheap these days, and work well. 

have you printed a cock yet? Because if not, you should print a cock.
