- Install one of the endstops onto the vertical smooth rod, just below the X-axis motor assembly. Use a M3x22 mm bolt, M3 washer, and M3 nut to tighten the endstop assembly
- Note: This endstop will be adjusted during the life of the unit to ensure that the extruder assembly is properly calibrated to the heated bed
- Install the next endstop on the horizontal smooth rod near the Y-motor. Use the same assembly process described above
- Install the final endstop on the horizontal smooth rod near the X-motor. Use the same assembly process described above
This blog is intended to serve as a simple, straight-forward guide for building and using your own 3D printer. I created and continually update this blog for a simple reason: the current state of 3D printing is confusing and I feel that this discourages new enthusiasts. Hopefully the simplicity of this blog will encourage more people to take the plunge into the world of reprap and 3D printing.
