intro and trades!
Tiago Santos
I'm a weird guy from Burnaby who tinkers with things.. Over the past couple of years I've accumulated a ton of automation related things due to building a CNC mill conversion. Started with small plans but things expanded and sort of went overboard...
Anyway, one of the bits that ended up as surplus was the control box and motors for a previous CNC attempt. It has a Gecko G540 4 axis stepper drive/BoB thing, 48v power supply, enclosure and 3x 425oz nema 23 steppers. Its all wired and worked OK, but my machine kept growing and the steppers weren't really big enough anymore (I'm now running 400w AC servos).
Long story short, I want to have a 3D printer.. I have tons of motors, linear bearings, big 45x90 aluminum extrusions, etc. What I don't have much is time :/ too many projects and things that need to happen before I can dedicate days/weeks to building something else! If anyone out there has a working printer, or a half done project, or a kit gathering dust, get in touch! Especially if you've always dreamed of building a bigger CNC thing, say a router or a really large printer, I am sure we can work something out :) I have been extremely lucky with getting all of these parts so I'll be OK with being on the "losing" side of a trade.
Even if this fails, I will have a printer sooner or later! So I'll hang around the group and see what you guys are up to :)
Cheers!

I have 2 printers half built
And I can print you a prusa kit
Would love to get some of these other parts
For a couple of projects that I have been thinking about

Broncosis, tell me more about what you have. I'm not terribly excited about a prusa, but who knows.. :)

Cheap and still fairly easy to find, 51v, 57A :D It does need 220v input, though. I've been using one of these on my CNC mill for a year, works great. The pinout on the connector to make it work is well documented online..
