Portable i3 printer with rotating tablet

thingiverse

I have owned my Reprap Prusa i3 for two years now, and I am thoroughly thrilled with it. I purchased it as a DIY kit for 300 euros, and as a budget-friendly printer, it has performed flawlessly. It features an acrylic frame, an aluminum bed, and a very stable and robust head. Nowadays, you can buy it on eBay for less than 200 euros. A word of caution: avoid purchasing a model with the acrylic bed; it cannot withstand high ABS bed temperatures. Since I have not had a dedicated space for my 3D printer, I needed a simple solution to move it from one room to another. One way to do this is to place it on a 50cm x 50cm stand and attach handles to the sides:). Some 3D models come pre-assembled, while others require modification to fit your needs. The models are also available as 3Ds max open files. All models use M3 bolts. All legs at the bottom of the stand must have an M3 nut. The M3 nut fits snugly into the leg, but for added security, you may use a superglue to keep it in place. A tablet holder has been designed specifically for 7-inch Google Nexus tablets. The tablet can be rotated 90 degrees. Printing apps for Android using OTG-USB adapters are available on the Google Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.dietzm.gcodesimulatorprinter&hl=en Watch a video tutorial here: https://youtu.be/PY1ML9IerGo Have fun printing!
