Prusa i3 3D printer modification

grabcad

Dear friends, Here is my version of the widely popular Prusa i3 Single frame 3D printer model, which I believe to be the most accurate one available online. Please feel free to provide your feedback, suggestions or criticism. The hot-end in my build was purchased from the internet as it is designed by me, and I am yet to test it. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to do so soon. I have also added a PSU on the right side of the frame, and the 3D model of the PSU can be found here - Switching Power Supply NES 350; all credits for this go to its author. Additionally, the electronics model used is not mine; it was downloaded from GrabCAD, but unfortunately, I cannot recall the name of its author. As an update from September 2015, I have added STL files for my smart controller box (from Thingiverse), a compact Bowden extruder (self-built and self-printed) compatible with 3mm filament, and my improved Z-axis threaded rods coupler for M5 nuts. This weekend, I will also be working on cable management, have ordered an aluminum building plate and an inductive sensor for auto-bed leveling. Keep an eye out for these upcoming improvements! :)
