makerbot finished?!
We have finished building our little open source 3D printer! However, the tinkering never stops! We are currently fine tuning the design and expect to see images of our builds and the development of the bot as they are ready to post.
Right now we are working on building a heated build platform and are currently designing an enclosure so the model will retain it’s heat when building. If you have any questions, or want us to try building one of your models, just send us a line and we will see what we can work out.
