A simple, stable, and scalable 3D printer proposal.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Barton Dring (bdring<\/a>) of Buildlog.Net fame recently designed a 3D printer<\/a> based on the multifunctional MakerSlide beams. MakerSlide<\/a>, another of bdring’s projects, was designed to provide a standardized linear bearing for CNC digital fabrication equipment. It launched on KickStarter last year with 5x the requested funding.<\/p>\n

This new design takes advantage of the simplicity and scalability of MakerSlide. The result is a 3D printer that is easy to fabricate, easy to assemble, easily scalable for a larger build area, and is extremely stable. Oh, and the wires are hidden inside the hollow space in the MakerSlide. Overall, it looks like a promising project.<\/p>\n

Bdring is considering offering this as a kit if there is enough interest, so if you’re interested, be sure to tell him. If you want to work on it yourself, the design files are available on Thingiverse<\/a>.<\/p>\n
