Following you now. I’m curious to see what you do with it!

Thank you very much for the feedback, I’m glad to hear that it turned out great for you. My dad is loving the prototype we gave him and I’m working on building mine now.

dont forget, walls add more strength than infill. so u can lower the infil to around 20% gyroid and up walls to 6 and itle be very strong.

For those who do not read Chinese nor wish to be bothered to translate it: "First of all, I would like to thank the author for publishing such a high-quality work. Next, I will talk about some issues about printing and assembly. 1. I used a nozzle layer height of 0.8mm and set the layer height to 0.4mm. I feel that the printing will be stronger this way. I used nearly 4kg of filament (not including the 2kg of filament wasted due to printing failure during the period). 2. Regarding how to determine the size of screws, the author mentioned a brand "McMaster-Carr". You can go to the company's official website and enter the corresponding model number to confirm the size of each screw. Then you can buy it in China. There are 4 long screws. It was not easy to buy, so I chose to buy inch screws and nuts, cut them and make them myself. Note that you need to drill a small hole in the nut and then tap and screw in the small positioning bolt (refer to Figure 2). 3. Regarding the edge trimmer, I happen to have a worx brushless lithium battery model at home. It has no wire restrictions and can be used in a wider range. 4. I think the author may have forgotten to upload the accessories of a clamp. There is also one missing set of tremolo and link turning blocks. There should be 4 sets." - @user_2527737234

I can definitely do that, I’m waiting on the components to come in for the one I’m building now and I will make a video. Thanks for the suggestion.

Looking forward to that!!!!!

Hey, I'm sorry I just saw this. I have one mostly assembled at home, I can send you a few pictures tonight showing how it goes together.

I would love that! please do!

Here I hope this helps, if you need any others let me know.

Thank you, it’s been really nice to hear the excitement behind this, We do not currently have a discord for this but that is a great idea, I’d love to see what people are able to do with this and hear any ideas for improvements. It’s been a really fun project for us. Thanks again!

Depends, but about $100-$140 Quick breakdown. Loose estimates from being bored super late at night. It says it needs 3098g. So about 3.1 rolls of filament assuming no print errors or mistakes, which comes out to 54-80$ of filament depending on where you get it from and what type you use. The cost of electricity for 80hrs@100w where I am is relatively cheap so that comes out to 2-4$. Then the hardware (bolts), just an off the cuff guess at 10-15c per bolt and there are 25 of them. So about 3-5$ with tax. Though if you're building one of these you'd probably have many of these on hand. Conversely you could buy variety packs on Amazon for 5-10$ The router listed is ~40$ + tax and maybe shipping. All in all it's about $100-140 in cost to make. Which isn't bad considering that the cheaper vert mills ice seen normally run you $800+, though the used market and Dremel vertical stands exist. If you have a lot of the parts on hand and you want to convert a tool, it's not a bad idea. Just can't speak to the quality as I've not built it

Wow, thank you for figuring all of that out and answering! Very good information.

all the parts on McMaster Carr were about $75. The tap (optional) itself is another $60.

Hello, those are different print profiles, I uploaded the one that says designer and someone else uploaded one that has more walls. Should be a lot stronger, but also takes longer to print and more material. If you have the material and time, then I would go with that one. As for material, I have only used PLA making these so far. Thanks
