Brian.. Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 John, I would love to know what printer you're using an how you've found it handles. Perhaps not to hi-jack this thread, but it's worth a topic of its own. We are clearly entering a new age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robothut Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 Yes I plan to do a run of these Alpha-Rama bots after I tweek a few of the CAD files and find the money to move forward. The LED lighting I put in the Robot Hut was all on credit cards and so the wife was not real pleased when I bought a broken printer off ebay. But now that she see's that I have it printing and yes I print things for her and the grand kids as well, she is OK with it as long as I pay back what I owe the bank. So first off is to find the best way to sell off the prototype in a fair manner. I would just use ebay but I hate selling in general and hate selling on ebay more. So I am open for ideas. Brian I will start a thread on 3d printers, then all of us that are using them can post from our persective"s. I am using a a machine made by FashForge there DEAMER unit. It was designed for ABS printing mainly as ABS plastic is harder to print with out warping problems, so the unit can be completely closed up and the inside temperature controlled. But when printing in PLA plastic you do not need the 3d printing chamber warm, in fact you need it cool. Well I will go in to this more in the 3d printing thread.

Joe K. Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Hey John -If there's a bit of a cash flow problem in getting these going, I'd be more than happy to pre-pay for mine. LM (us) K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonydroid Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Hi John thanks for the videoi love the bender´s eyes it´s very coolif it goes for production let me knowCongratsCheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robothut Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 Paul suggested a fair way to find the Prototype a home. I set a price, lets say $250.00 "the money goes to a good cause, helping robots" then anyone that is interested in having the robot at that price, lets me know and I will randomly draw a name from a hat and that person gets it. Every one has the same odds that way. Does that sound fair to you all ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 If folks agree John, then put my name in please. There would have to be a cut off time/date then I imagine for people to get their names in in time?Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian.. Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I'd also be delighted to put the money up front to oil the wheels. And please add a decent margin for yourself, John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 That's also a good option isn't it John. We pay you up front. That way you get to keep your prototype or sell it as you please. I am happy with whatever you choose to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
