So, it seems we are going to be build 3 Prusa I3 printers sometime in the future.

This page is an attempt to document it all, our own little BOM.

Needed

power supply

Currently i am using a 12V supply for everything, but it is quite possible to heat the bed on 24V and run the motors on 12V. Maybe

40 euro

hotend

I don't see any reason to not use a J-Head.. 0.5 is fast but i might follow ID and profzon and go for 0.4..

60 euro

hobbed bolt

Arcol's hyena is awesome :)

15 euro

electronics

No idea yet.. Maybe go for 4pi?

Or this thingy for cheapness?

stepper drivers

Provided we are _not_ going for 4pi, we need some. Stepsticks should be fine.

stepper motors

They cut us a deal earlier, maybe we can try it again?

http://reprapworld.com/?products_details&products_id=94&cPath=1614

55 euro

smooth rods

Not sure, maybe profzon has an idea about this?

20 euro

threaded rods

We have a shitload of M8 threaded rod on the space already, we _will_ probably need to get ~5 meter of M5 rod.

10 euro

nuts & bolts

Again, not sure... profzon?

10 euro

bed heating

I would like to maybe experiment with a different sized bed, seeing as this is available for not much more money.

30 euro

build surface

Piece of glass from the neighbours? Or maybe finally use that piece of scanner glass i've been saving.. hmmm

5 euro

bearings

10 LM8UU style and a couple of 608 and maybe a 624?

We have some 608 floating around in the space ...

6 euro

printed parts

Yes yes

belts & pulleys

T2.5! So ...

25 euro

endstops

280 euros , missing electronics

Wow, really 280? This can't be right :P
