Here is a link to the BOM.
A few people are already done printing some parts. That is awesome but I haven't assembled the instructions yet. I just uploaded the STLs. One of the biggest gotchas is that all the holes for M8 and M3 bolts will probably have to be drilled with the exception of where you actually want to thread into the plastic. The other gotcha is that you will probably not be able to drop the 608 bearings into their holes. I put the part in an oven on low. I take it out every minute and hit it against a hard surface. When the tap turns to a thud you are ready to insert the bearings. I have heard reports that you can do this also by heating a bearing with a hot plate or heating the part with boiling water.
@MattMoses: I feel silly setting up my own bounties. However, if people wanted to setup bounties for things they would like me to work on (or people in the community at large) then I will do my best to collect on them assuming they align with my overall goals and time restrictions. I really like the ideas of bounties. (BTW, I can't wait to start working on BOB but so many other things are in front of him. I really think I could get all the non-plastic parts down to just the steppers, controller, and the hot end.)
