BraggBot: A 3D delta printer

My DIY 3D delta printer based on makeblock for structure and linear motion. Enjoy!

Looks awesome! Running Marlin or Repetier?

I’m running LinuxCNC on the Machinekit image (BeagleBoneBlack + BeBoPr++ hardware)

MakeBlock also conveniently supports mods… Here it allowed for easy attachments of polycarbonate sheets to enclose the build volume.

Where have you gotten the arm parts, i’m planing on building a delta robot but haven’t found any linkage arms that I like.

The carbon fiber rods I used: http://www.mcmaster.com/#2153t35/=w4n6sc

The rods were held by stand-offs that I eventually replaced with 3D printed thinner ones: http://www.mcmaster.com/#92825a137/=y1xj0f

The recessed magnets were from amazon: “Neodymium Magnets 1/4 x 1/4 inch Cylinder N48”

The ball joints used were designed by Hayden: haydn.huntley@gmail.com

The youtube video outlines all of this: https://youtu.be/eArWMIoHzmc

Hope this helps!
