snappy-reprap
=============
snappy-reprap v0.90
===================
A parametric design for a cheap self-replicating 3D printer (reprap) that snaps together to minimize screws and non-printed parts.
Building the STL Files
----------------------
Generating STL Files
====================
For all platforms, you will need to have OpenSCAD installed. You can download OpenSCAD from their website at [http://www.openscad.org](http://www.openscad.org)
The Makefile currently defines $OPENSCAD for building on OS X:
OS X:
-----
Under OS X, you shouldn't need to change the Makefile. It should set $OPENSCAD as:
```
OPENSCAD=/Applications/OpenSCAD.app/Contents/MacOS/OpenSCAD
```
Under Linux, you can change that to:
To generate the STL model files, open a terminal to the snappy-reprap directory and type:
```
make
```
Linux:
------
Under Linux, you will need to edit the Makefile, and change $OPENSCAD to:
```
OPENSCAD=openscad
```
To generate the STL model files, open a terminal to the snappy-reprap directory and type:
```
make
```
Windows:
--------
Under Windows, you'll probably have to open each `*_part.scad` and `*_parts.scad` file individually and manually export the STL files.
Printing the Parts
------------------
You will need to print out the following parts:
| Qty | Part File
|----:|----------------------
| 1 | cap\_parts.stl
| 1 | drive\_gear\_parts.stl
| 1 | motor\_mount\_plate\_parts.stl
| 2 | rail\_with\_motor\_mount\_part.stl
| 1 | rails\_90deg\_joint\_part.stl
| 2 | rails\_end\_part.stl
| 7 | rails\_part.stl
| 1 | roller\_parts.stl
| 3 | sled\_end\_parts.stl
| 2 | support\_leg\_part.stl
| 2 | xy\_joiner\_parts.stl
| 4 | xy\_sled\_part.stl
| 1 | z\_platform\_joint\_part.stl
| 1 | z\_sled\_part.stl
Required Vitamins
-----------------
You'll need the following un-printable parts:
| Qty | Description
|----:|----------------------------------------------------
| 1 | RAMBo controller electronics.
| 1 | 60 Watt 12v Power Supply
| 3 | End-stop micro-switches and wiring.
| 3 | NEMA17 Stepper Motors, Less than 35mm length
| 1 | NEMA17 Stepper Motor, High Torque.
| 1 | Wiring for Extruder Heater.
| 1 | Wiring for Extruder Thermistor.
| 1 | J-Head Extruder.
| 1 | Threaded rod, 300mm x 8mm.
| 1 | Nut, 8mm.
| 2 | M3x15 Socket Screws.
| 18 | M3x10 Socket Screws.
| 4 | M3 Nuts.
| 16 | M3 Washers.
| 6 | M2x15 Socket Screws.
| 6 | M2 Nuts.
| 1 | Spring. _(**TODO:** determine size)_
| 2 | M3x20? socket screws. _(**TODO:** determine actual size)_
| 2 | M3x20? countersunk screws. _(**TODO:** determine actual size)_
| 1 | Extruder Drive Gear.
| 1 | M2 Extruder drive gear set screw.
| 2Kg | Plastic Filament. _(**TODO:** determine actual amount.)_
Required Tools
--------------
You will need the following tools to assemble this printer.
- 3mm hex wrench.
- 2mm hex wrench.
- Small flathead screwdriver.
- Small phillips screwdriver.
- Medium-Grit Sandpaper.
- Possibly cyanoacrylate glue. (super-glue)
You _might_ be able to run the makefile under CygWin, if you set $OPENSCAD to something like:
```
OPENSCAD="/Program Files/OpenSCAD/openscad.exe"
```
Assembly Instructions
---------------------
TBD
=====================
Instructions on what to print, what non-printed parts to get, and what tools you need, can be found in the [Wiki]<https://github.com/revarbat/snappy-reprap/wiki>.
