Featured Parts
XY Stepper Mount
Why Core-XY: I wanted to build a core xy because first of all they are really compact. Second I already own a bed slinger 3d printer. Also the belt routing really interested me.
Power Supply Mount
Changes: Had to move power supply out of the skirt to make space for Z steppers
Spark Console
Why
I din’t want to have a big touchscreen in the center of the machine. I wanted to go for something quince. I chose to have an OLED screen on it to have because it dose not steal the spotlight but can still display useful information. I also added neopixels so that it could have a progress bar that reacts to the current state. Finally I added 8 buttons for commonly used actions for anything more complex you probably want to use the web UI anyway.
