thingiverse

This delta printer design aims to minimize unique V-Slot parts and costs. It employs a Spectra line motion system with printed sliders on OpenBeam extrusions. The design utilizes 623VV bearings as pulleys for the fishing line. A detailed build blog is available at http://spellicer.blogspot.com/. Drawing inspiration from Rostock, Kossel, Cerberus, and 3DR designs, the build costs approximately $250 (including an E3D hotend). Key components include a RAMPS 1.4 board, Arduino Mega, Pololu stepper drivers, MK7 filament drive gears, binder clips, push-to-connect fittings, PTFE tubing, 3M OpenBeam, NEMA 17 motors, Spectra fishing line, 12 x 623VV bearings, three microswitches, a 10-inch mirror, a 10-inch corkboard, and assorted M3 nuts, bolts, and other hardware.
