Time to bite the bullet and jump into the deep end. I am planning to order the following from Aliexpress in the next couple of days.
If anyone sees something they think I should avoid/ change, comments are greatly appreciated.
I decided to source most of the parts from one supplier, as they have had a few good reviews on some of the items.
RAMPS 1.4 + Mega 2560 + steppers + heatsinks: www.aliexpress.com
GT2 belt + pulleys: www.aliexpress.com
Linear rods: www.aliexpress.com (Same supplier as Zerker had- here's hoping for the same luck)
NEMA 17 motors: www.aliexpress.com
Hotbed: www.aliexpress.com
L8MUU (with spares) : www.aliexpress.com
Cabling (because why not? :) ) :www.aliexpress.com
Thermistors: www.aliexpress.com
endstops: www.aliexpress.com
I have sourced a 520W ATX from a colleague, and will shop around for S/S threaded rod, fasteners and glass locally. Will get proper j-head (3mm, 0.4mm nozzle) from hotends.com
Any recommendations where to get a hobbed bolt from? This is the best I could find online: www.aliexpress.com
Would love for someone to print me a set of RP parts (incl geg's wade extruder) before the new year, reimbursed of coursed. Otherwise I will source that online too.
Cheers
