Ultimaker Original Heated Build Chamber System

thingiverse

I'm still using this project as a placeholder, something I wanted to complete over the summer. Instead, I had to work on this: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1263973. This project features several innovative components: Magnetic detachable panels make it easy to remove and replace them without causing any damage. A hot air system is integrated into the design, allowing for predrying of filament and preheating of the build chamber. An optional toxic air vent provides an additional safety feature. This printer is compatible with my dual extruder mount: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:924116. It also works seamlessly with a remixed version of thing XXXX, which includes a mount for 50mm aluminum flex tubing. To build this project, you will need: A CNC milling machine capable of milling acrylic is required to manufacture the components. I've abandoned plans for a nondestructive upgrade. The magnetic panels can now be removed more easily and stepper motors can be replaced after detaching XLR connectors. Making simple modifications to the CAD files would still allow for a less invasive build.
