Thank you very much. I love the suggestion of using Styrofoam first. I will be doing that soon. I am curious what is the height of yours from end stop to where the build plate lives. I bought 920mm rods for mine.
My rods are 800mm. It really doesn't matter how tall your printer is. You don't even have to use the entire length of the Rods. At the top of mine, my rods stick out because my length is based of the height of my shortest rod.
The most important part of the design is the 120 degree angles. each set of rods must be 120 degrees, on center, from the next set forming a perfect triangle. And equal distance. DO NOT RUSH THIS PART!!!
My design is wider than the original but still follows that rule.
When I designed my Delta, I designed it so that the rods run through each platform for more stability. I will never have to worry about mine ever rocking.
