Is there a BOM for Simple-DR?
Ie how many parts I need to print of each component.
What "Vitimins" are needed?
i don't want to answer for JohnSL, but I’ll explain from my perspective, appears if you’re not using the simple to print the delta, then you print 6 main platform parts,3 top 3 bottom, then you print off 12 of the rod ends, one carriage, the bearing sleeve/belt mounts, you'll need 3 of those, the 3 pulleys for the neema stepper motors.. i think that's all, I’m sure John will have a complete How to when he's finished, I however, with some careful prodding, convinced John to make the parts printable on the simple's 100x100x100 mm build volume, and use the nuts and bolts from the simple along with the rods and bearings, pretty much all you'd do is buy a simple for 299$, assemble it, print out the delta parts then disassemble the simple and use it's printrboard, stepper motors, rods, bearings, wires, nuts and bolts... pretty much everything but the wood pieces (lol I’ll find a use on the delta for those yet), then assemble your delta flash new firmware and BaNg! you now have a simple Delta capable of being scaled up by printing special extension blocks to make a bigger X/Y print area, as far as Z your limited to the rod length so you can buy new rods to increase that.... hope all that helps :) hay john correct me if I’m wrong on anything :) as this was your brain child and i just threw ideas at you to see what would stick...lol
OH and pick a Bowden extruder of your choice and print/assemble it for use on the “simple delta”
