I don't know if any of you have seen the Delta-Pi printer. Seems like a good alternative to the rostock!
I was looking at doing a rostock, but seeing this is much cheaper, and quite possibly more accurate than chinese linear rod I might just build this instead :)

Instead of using linear rod which can be expensive, Mike is using Stainless steel tube 3/4" (19mm) but 20mm will also work.

All credit goes to Mike, thank you for designing it! (tu)
Anybody here built one? Your thoughts?
