3D Printer - CT3D - Work In Progress - All lasercut

grabcad

An initial design of the printer I plan to build is a project I've been working on for some time, but unfortunately, due to work and studies, I haven't had the time to finish it. If someone can offer suggestions, please do! :-) Inspired by Prusa i3 and Prusa i3.2 available on GrabCAD: 3D printer - PRUSA i3.2 LASERCUT, the purpose of this printer is primarily to gain experience with complex assemblies, featuring advantages such as all-aluminum laser-cut parts (ideally ready for installation once cut), a 6mm thickness for added stability compared to Prusa i3, a next-generation, all-steel E3D double extruder for higher print speeds and quality, easily assembly design, external wire feed, compatibility with a small milling cutter or other tools, and electronics protection (with cable slots, air passages, connectors, switches, etc., leaving room to add additional boards or use beyond just 3D printing). However, it is larger and bulkier than Prusa i3 or other printers, and the costs and feasibility of building it are still unknown.
