Anyone know where I can get my Rostock arms printed? The two printers I have access to can't accommodate.

@Taylor

Nice. What's the process to acquire them? Also, if I'm building out the rostock delta, from the rostock delta wiki page, would they be around the same size or I just signify in the coding what length they are so everything runs nice. (This is my first 3d printer build by the way.)

Thanks,

Andrew

If you're building a stock Rostock, I have the arms already printed. Just text me at 831-588-7121.

Though actually I'd recommend carbon fiber rods and traxxas rod ends instead of printed rods. Search the deltabot mailing list for "goodwinds" for carbon rods and "traxxas" for rod ends.

If you still want printed rods though, I have some. I think the carbon rods are a better choice though. They're stiffer and appear less likely to come unscrewed.
