Re: New Own Design Printer 'Cherry Pi'

Nice one :) I bought my wantai motors via AliExpress - couldn't fault the service. I think my Prusa i3 motors came from there too. I'll be picking up another RAMPS 1.4 and arduino as well, as the one on my Prusa i3 is faulty (cant upload any new firmware). The AliExpress ones are dirt cheap compared to RepRapDiscount (who do also sell on AliExpress).

The only thing I've not been able to find there is borosilicate glass. I'm having an absolute nightmare trying to get a 250mm round piece. The only place that has it is in the US and charges $40 + $30 shipping with no returns (so if it's broken, I'm screwed).

One thing's for sure - the Cherry Pi allows for a very cost efficient build. My biggest expense was the Rumba kit, everything else has been really cheap and easy to source. All I've got left on the list is the glass, and I've got to decide what route to go with the effector with regards to magnetic connections and auto levelling.
