Hello everyone!

After a lot ' of work I finished the 3D printer , Sequel will show my components and the various hardware changes / software :

As for the mechanics, rods, bearings, lead screws, support structures, was material that had already so we had not to buy it.

In the printer has been installed firmware Marlin free download from GitHub: https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin

In the firmware to do a long setup process with the appropriate parameters of our machine.

For PC control and the creation of drawings and related slicing instead use more programs like:

– Cura
– Repetier Host

– Pronterface

– Slic3r

– 123 Design

For now, I tried to print with ABS and PLA materials based 3D printing is worth reviewing the different melting temperatures and thus the print speed.
