I am working on the base case of the 3D printer. I am planning to make most of the parts such as the power supply reusable.
In two days, I will obtain some funds to continue building the 3D printer. I must confess that I am excited. This cash will let me obtain tools and materials that I need to work on this project. As I explain in previous postings, building a  3D printer using recycle printers parts is like working with […]
