Rostock Max V2 in NZ!
Posted: Thu Jul 16, 2015 5:52 pm
Hi Guys,
Finished my build of my first ever 3d printer, and Im very happy with the results. The first issue I ran into was that NZ customs had taken my power supply out of the box!! Was an easy fix as I just purchased a new power supply, but a 700w version. SeeMeCNC even gave me a gift card even though it wasn't their fault it was missing. Huge thumbs up for the customer service.
Was a bit hesitant with this as my first build and thought I would run into a heap of problems, but seems to have worked out very well! My wiring was horrible and I will revisit that later on down the track and clean everything up and rewire a few things that Im not happy with. Mainly the internal wiring and routing in the base of the machine. I spent a lot of time on the hotend making sure that was as perfect as I could get it with the amazing instructions (Kudos to the writer!). As this is my first ever build and introduction to 3d printing I rely heavily on the forum for various things, now I'll be relying heavily on it for getting my prints perfect. I have included a few pics of my completed Rostock Max V2, minus a few panels as I didn't want to install them all just incase I had to make any adjustments. Plus I want to go over everything after a few prints just to make sure all the hardware is still doing whats its meant to be doing. I have also included a few pics of my first prints, please critique away as the information is invaluable to me!!! SeeMeCNC you have a very happy customer here!!!!!!!
