A new member of the family! Last week i got this #MakiBOX 3D printer from a client who had never used it to extrude plastics. I think i am putting a laser in there and turn it into a small engraver. The build volume is not that great and also i heard it pretty much sucks as a printer. Today i can add another 3D printer to the fleet as i'm going to get a proto-type kossel delta printer that never got to the production phase. It has a huge build volume of 300 x 490 mm so that's going to be fun.

Mold

So I got the bracket for the Muribot in the mail and it's awesome! Shapeways really out did themselves. Unfortunately all my attempts to mold it have been utter failures. It's just not suited to being molded this way...

This necessitates getting a 3D Printer before my kickstarter, but which one? I took a look at the Makibox but I'm not sure if it'll be high enough quality, it's cheap though and the build area is exactly what I want. The next is the phoenix 3D printer, it's build area is way larger than I need at the moment, and the price is about double, but the quality of the prints in nothing to scoff at.

I think it's a wise investment, that might allow me to make the Muribot even better. If you have any input on good 3d printers I'd be happy to hear it!

I've been working on the software for the usb bootloader, as well as doing a final debug of the pcb. I'm glad I do so many checks because I discovered a bunch of problems with the SC806 charger IC I'm using and how I had it wired up.

Giving up on Makibox

After over six months of waiting and some recent frustrations with the staff I have decided to give up on trying to get the Makibox 3D printer which was mentioned in the opening post of this tumblr. I hope that the group is successful but there are just too many problems dealing with the company. (and some with the box itself apparently). Anyone who was thinking about getting one I would suggest that you wait until they have them on the shelf. I did order a peachy printer due to the low cost to try out but I still want something that prints in PLA/ABS. Currently I am thinking about printrbot, pheonix, or rigidbot. Hopefully I will get my refund from Makibox which I can apply to the savings for this.
