Description
This is a vertical X axis that conforms to the reprap vertical x axis standard. It uses a particular 10mm Acme leadscrew (Discontinued: a comparable can be found here) but an adapter is available that hold an m8 nut for standard studding-driven mendels.
I'm not certain that the PrismX or OB1 prism conforms to the standard spacing (I'm not even sure the Sell's Mendel does; i recall that the spacing was a bit arbitrary), so double check your printer before printing out the pieces!
It includes a Greg's/Wade's compatible carriage, but an integrated carraige/extruder is to follow.
This is a refinement on a design i worked on a couple years ago. Hope you like the Art Deco inspired design.
