Printing LulzBot Mini parts with a LulzBot Mini. Reprap FTW! reprap.org The printed parts were printed from LulzBot’s open source Mini files. We used a mixture of Mini V1.03 “Foxglove” and updated V1.04 “Gladiola” pieces (Z lowers, X connector cover, Beefy Idler/latch). Â If you have a Mini, be sure to use the production tuned .gcode files for production quality, strength, and blazing fast print speed. Â We even have the heat inserts you need.
Jodi worked on building her own LulzBot Mini 3D printer. Mounting the cable relief to the left side panel
The X/Z carriage assembled using a mix of foxglove and gladiola pieces.
Y carriage and spool arm mounted to the chassisFinal assembly began in earnest over the last few months. XZ assembly, RAMBO and Y harnesses mounted to the chassis Many heat inserts were inserted with the heat insert soldering iron. We salvaged and built the wiring harness (the most difficult item to replicate) in bits and pieces over time until it was complete.Electronics mocked up in the control box. It’s running!Electronics after tidying and finish mounting of ferritesThe result is a beautiful, great printing Mini for (very patient) Jodi. Bonus points for those that can spot the final change shown in these last two pictures.
Jodi’s message for you all. Thanks for checking out our build. We hope you’ve enjoyed it!
