This week my priority was Frame/Gantry Assembly and 3D printing. I made significant progress and am proud to see the design from CAD coming to life.
I printed the feet of the frame and partially assembled the frame of LivePin. I also finished the hopefully final design of the carriage, where I added lightning holes, made the mounting holes. for the servos bigger, and increased the size of the rack slides to allow for easier sliding this time around. I finished printing it! And now need to assemble it on Sunday and design the mount for it onto the frame.
I also printed 16/32 racks, no pinions yet, and printed most of the components. I aim to finish 3D printing by this Wednesday. I also aim to have the frame completed by Sunday, and mount the carriage and belt by Friday.
I am a little rushed for time, but I am ahead of the schedule on the update Gant Chart.
