I’ve always contemplated designing my own printer but I didn’t know how to until I learned CAD, was quite the journey and I learned a lot (still a lot to learn) but I had a lot of fun designing it!

    I see the V0 inspiration. It doesn’t take away any of the glory of designing your own printer. Can I ask what we’re your goals when you started the design?

      Definitely lots of inspiration from the V0 (frame, belt paths) I actually thought of getting a V0 kit but the assembly felt a bit much, Voron are incredibly well designed don’t get me wrong but I’m a sucker for simplicity so that was my main goal for it

        I feel y’a. I have what started as a Hypercube Evolution, now it has a rail on X axis and a custom carriage plus other things. Wires all around. It’s been 5 years like that. I was about to get a Voron but I’m still waiting, not sure for what but I’m waiting…
