Please inform us of anything you encounter.  Huge Thanks to Pedro Oliveira! He spent a good amount of his time to create for the community a Fusion360 file of the MK5KIT: Ender 3. This will be considered a Community Revision 2.Due to my lack of time to print and test from this file...We're looking for Beta Testers.Please comment below if you are interested - of which I will reach out to you in DM with the share link.To be a tester you must fall under the following lines...You will need an abundance of filament, knowing some parts may need to be printed for testing - we need to know if they work or not.Electronics and parts for MK5KIT : Ender 3 Build.You need to be very aware that these parts printed may need alteration - and if they do...you are welcome to make them or report back issues and suggestions.The model was created with a 2.0mm tolerance in mind for slicing, though I do try to push that limit to 3.0mm, which did cause me some issues among my own printing. I try to aim for speed, rather than quality. With this in mind. 2.0mm is suggested for your slicer - though I welcome anyone willing to experiment with a faster printing speed among a 3.0mm size, with the knowing the printed part may have some tolerance issues.I welcome anyone's help moving forward on this - as well, suggestions on how to properly manage the parts among tested parts and making note's properly among the connected network of testers.BUILD VIDEO: Join Our Groups to Stay Up To Date!FACEBOOK: http://facebook.com/groups/recreator3D DISCORD: https://discord.gg/vn2CH72bMqThe Recreator 3D's purpose is to Recreate PET#1 recyclable plastic bottles into useable 3D filament. The smallest, most compact, and portable pultrusion unit seen within the community. It's ability to strip, reform, color, and spool all in one continuous pull cycle. This community kit should inspire most households and community team leaders. The Recreator 3D, inspired by the XViCO X3S 3D printers. It's base structure, a few accessories, and a handful of 3D printed parts are all that was used. The Recreator 3D will be 100% free as a community build.I wanted to further adapt PET#1 recycling to be more accessible to every person even easier. With this goal; we'll reshape our future's recycling methods, One bottle at a time! JRT Joshua R. Taylor http://jrt3d.com/http://recreator3d.com/http://recycle3d.xyz/
