I love the motion mechanisms; the tension bearings on the rail remind me of the V1 MPCNC designs and the rope gantry system reminds me of the Kralyn3d Positron.

- TaylorAlexander 4y ago> the rope gantry system reminds me of the Kralyn3d Positron. I still had a spool of high stiffness line that I bought back when people were experimenting with that! It was one of the early delta printer variants, like the Kossel or similar that I first saw that working. It took a little while to prototype the spool winding system but in the end it works really nicely! Its just so light and cheap, I love it. I should throw the STL files up. It was a big rush to get the project finished and I had a lot of other stuff to focus on. And I do want to encourage people to dig in to the design and make forks with their changes. But it does work pretty well as is, so STLs would be helpful. I also accept pull requests! I am super busy and pleasure projects like this are so hard to fully document. I appreciate the kind words!
