Converting the Robotdigg SCARA printer to Duet electronics
In my previous post I described the Robotdigg SCARA Arm 3D printer in its original form. This post covers the conversion to Duet Ethernet electronics. It may seem odd to use top-of-the range electronics with budget mechanics, and I am … Continue reading
More Delta Printer upgrades: WiFi and Silence!
Some of you may already know that I have been working on a new version of the Duet 3D printer electronics. The new board is called the Duet WiFi, and it a joint venture between my own company Escher3D and Think3DPrint3D. The first … Continue reading
More upgrades to the large Delta 3D printer
In this post I describe three further upgrades: 24V power, moving the electronics under the bed, and the Robotdigg aluminium effector.
Upgrading the large delta printer
In my previous entry I described my large Kossel-derivative delta printer. Since building it, I have upgraded it in a number of ways, which I will now describe.
Building a large delta 3D printer
In this entry I describe how I built a largish delta printer based on the Kossel design. It started up as an upgrade to the Mini Kossel that I describe in earlier posts, but now there is very little of … Continue reading
Upgrading the Mini Kossel to Duet Electronics Part 4: the Z probe

Upgrading the Mini Kossel to Duet Electronics Part 3: Calibration
In the third part of this mini-series, I will cover final commissioning of the Mini Kossel with Duet electronics.
Upgrading the Mini Kossel to Duet Electronics Part 2: Software and Commissioning
In Part 1 of this two-part series, I covered the hardware changes needed to use Duet electronics with the Mini Kossel in place of Arduino/RAMPS electronics. In this second part, I will cover installing the software and the first stages … Continue reading
Upgrading the Mini Kossel to Duet Electronics Part 1: Hardware
The Mini Kossel delta 3D printer is available in kit form from various suppliers, including Think3DPrint3d (T3P3) in the UK. The kits currently supplied by TPT3 include an Arduino Mega and a RAMPS board to control the printer with Marlin firmware. Although this combination … Continue reading
Converting the RepRapPro Ormerod to Two Colour
The RepRapPro Ormerod is sold as a single-extruder 3D printer kit. Although RepRapPro is promising to produce a multi-extruder conversion kit for it, they have not yet provided a date when this will be available. So here is my recipe … Continue reading
