Print Area 12x12x18
PCduino with Adafruit motor shields to control the printer.

I like it. I like it a lot

I like it but would prefer the bed to lower during prints because it is harder to adjust a gantry that is moving than a stationary gantry. I also prefer not to use roller bearings riding on two separate extrusions, binding can be an issue unless the extrusions are perfectly paralleled and all 4 vertical supports will need to be perfectly aligned. This is all my opinion anyways.

I am designing this to be used with my cosplay business I am starting. It will be used to make some large prints so I wanted to keep the print bed fixed.

Interesting, why did you go with a moving gantry?

Ordered most of the parts today.

looks really interesting - keen to see more.

I’m going with the moving because this will me making very large prints.
