Think I'm going to call mine r3d2 (Rostock-3D-v2). I'm about 2/3 or more through the build, here's some shots so far.

Re: r3d2
Your dropbox photos appear to be set to private. I had to go looking at the HTML to figure out why they weren't showing up. May I suggest Imgur as a photo host for the future? Not had any issues with them in the past.

Re: r3d2
Sharing photos from dropbox doesn't work well ever.
Never do anything you don't want to have to explain to the paramedics.
Re: r3d2
OK, I moved them to G Drive, and "think" I figured out how to post (at least I see them). I finished this baby this morning, and if you can see the last image in the OP, these are my leftover parts. Are any of these necessary? No Smoke! Didn't know you had to be an electrician to build this!
At the end it says plug the USB cable in, but the acrylic won't go on then. I cut a notch for the cable. Also a finished "r3d2" photo (hope these show up!
Question: I am going to put this in a heated enclosure. The Base (bottom 6") won't be heated. I would think the PS fan blowing out would want it's source air from the bottom (not from the heated enclosure). Is it OK to plug the vents on the top surface of the Base?

Re: r3d2
There's actually a hole in the base plate for the USB cord to be routed through.
I took the liberty of putting a red square around it to show where it is.

If at first you don't succeed, you're doing something wrong. Try again, and if it fails again, try once more. Through trial and error, one can be the first to accomplish something great.

Re: r3d2
Yeah... funny, I read "Route the USB cable up through the hole in the front of the machine..." thinking it meant through the big front opening. I even remember looking at the picture to see where it plugged in. Oh well, looks fine with a little notch in the acrylic.geneb wrote:Psst! Page 142. Fig. 18.2-1.

Re: r3d2
About done with my enclosure. 1/2 sheet of 1/4" plywood and 3/4" foam barrior, 8' 2x2, and some aluminum tape. I'm awaiting a 19" x 41" piece of 1/4" PC from a local supplier, will be the hinged door (will stop at lower rib). The front 1/3 of the lower rib area slides out (removable); rib baffle is 1/16" above top of base on v2. Cover for plastic reel access. Opening in lower right for fan output and access to power switch.
By the way, I traced the main top piece (of base) of the v2 before I assembled anything, made it easy to carve out the rib and top pieces (3/4" ply I had laying around). You can also saw through the 1/4" ply about 3/4's of the way through and all 5 sections will remain one piece.

Re: r3d2
Thanks for posting the pictures. It is amazing how you and others create these enclosures and each one is a little different.
Great job!
Great job!

Re: r3d2
And r3d2 in it's home. Now I need to get a new PC or run a really long USB cable to my garage. MatterControl doesn't like XP Anxious to get this baby calibrated (just to see if it moves!)

Re: r3d2
About insulating the enclosure with foam, I have read somewhere on the forum that ther has been an accident already... The insulating foam melted and dropped on the hot end => Fire => House down.
Yours is covered with aluminium; so it may be safier.... but personally, I would reconsider the use of such a material.

Re: r3d2
Your enclosure looks fantastic now that I see it completed, I would consider the temperature controller that I linked to previously, it will keep the insides
of the enclosure at a constant temperature by operating your heat lamp and an exhaust fan to cool when necessary. Best to you with your printing.

eagle, that display on the top is the temperature controller. He does have a heater bulb in there too.

It's my old mind I'm worried about. Got to say this is a fun retirement toy!Eaglezsoar wrote:Indeed it is, thanks for correcting my old eyes!Xenocrates wrote:eagle, that display on the top is the temperature controller. He does have a heater bulb in there too.
Damn, got to calibrating E-steps, went to install a reel of ABS, and couldn't figure out how to feed it... turns out I put the extruder on the wrong side of the plate (speaking of old eyes!). Once I relooked at the pictures I figured it out. Looks like an after dinner job...
