If You enjoyed this project and want to show appreciation, consider supporting me by sending a tip on thingiverse or my PayPal. You can find the link here. My version of RatRig V-Core has several key changes from the original design. I've replaced the bowden extruder with a direct extruder, which provides more precise control over the printing process. The enclosure is also new and can be seen in the photos. This 3D printer comes with many useful parts that you'll need to build it. Z_V-slot_set - You'll need four of these to precisely mount profiles that guide the Z Axis. I've swapped out the original idlers for toothed idlers, which provide a more stable belt system and prevent visual patterns on flat surfaces. Without them, you may experience ghosting and other issues. You'll need six Bore 5mm With Teeth idlers for this project. The enclosure is made from 4 mm Plexiglass that needs to be cut by laser. While thinner Plexiglass can be used, the 4 mm version makes the printer quite heavy - around 18 kg. In the download section, you'll find .dxf files for the laser cutter, along with M5x8 screws and T-Nuts needed for installation. The bottom plate has holes for PSU, Duet 2 Wifi, and SSR. Here's a list of parts I'm using: * PSU Meanwell LRS-350-24: http://bit.ly/2ScxuOL * Duet 2 Wifi: http://bit.ly/2TzMFPm * PT100 Module: http://bit.ly/2IbDq67 * DC-DC Step Down Module: http://bit.ly/Przetwornica * SSR KIT AC 40A: http://bit.ly/2S6crxx * Nema 17 Wantai 42BYGHM809: http://bit.ly/2UwYfuV * Keenovo Silicone Heater: http://bit.ly/2TgODUF * Titan Aero (clone): http://bit.ly/2UwZPNn * Titanium heatbreak: http://bit.ly/2RmEkgk * BLTouch: http://bit.ly/2WpGaR7 I've also designed several parts specifically for this 3D printer: * Titan Aero & BLTouch Carriage for RatRig V-Core: http://bit.ly/2CWeMBT * Simple Enclosure Hinge: http://bit.ly/2pu2hdH * Power Switch Cover - IEC320: http://bit.ly/2CWbgYg Other parts worth considering when building this 3D Printer include: * V-Slot End Caps: http://bit.ly/2OjJxG6 * V-Slot Snap Cover for hiding cables: http://bit.ly/2NXXE4R * NEMA17 Motor Vibration Dampeners: http://bit.ly/2D05xjT * Chain used with bed: http://bit.ly/2QAxU03 * V-Slot Cable Clips: http://bit.ly/2Oaaltz * V-Slot Cable Mount: http://bit.ly/2D36cRZ
