Its pretty much the same size as the prusa mendel. It maybe has 50mm more Z travel. So 200x200x150mm ish I won't know exactly until I get the hot end installed and run it through its motions.
Yes, it will get a heated bed. I don't have a piece of borosilicate glass yet so I might just steal the bed off the old makerspace printer. I haven't decided if this one will replace that printer or not. I've condemned that old printer either way, there are just too many problems with that frame and z axis. If this printer works really well and doesn't need constant attention it will become the makerspace's 3d printer.
I'm not totally sold on the plexiglas frame. Its the weakest link in this printer so far. I might just use the plexiglas as a template to make an aluminum frame from 1/4" 6061 plate.
Right now I'm trying not to rush into wiring and do it right. If I wire it up temporarily I'll never get around to wiring it up proper. I left the connectors and wire at work to do it right. Its killing me right now not to go wire it up with whatever scrap I can find.
I think I'll work on assembling the new extruder next.
