The boards are 1/4" mdf (it might have been labelled “hard board”). The printed parts are PETG. The pictures don’t do this design justice. They fit together great, and despite being very simple, they are artistic in the design.
(((That’s not me in the picture, that’s my son. He likes to move the bed around.)))
I have most of the parts, although I realized this morning when I unwrapped my steel rods that I didn’t buy the leadscrew, so I’m stealing it from my wanhao duplicator i3. I already ordered more from the vicious1 store. I don’t even see the lone nuts in the store now, which will help others from making that same mistake.
I wanted to paint or at least seal the MDF, but I’m too excited to get it moving. The sheet of MDF was so cheap I think I’ll get this one working, and then cut a complete other set and paint those. I have some other ideas about that too, I’d like to make it a bit stiffer, and the base has trouble staying square, although it’s not fair to judge when it’s only half assembled. My goal is to get the motors moving today.
