3D Printing Beginners Guide (Hardware) - 400 DIY Delta 3D Printer kit JUNUHUNU: Meh, bought it 2 years ago(2017, January, had a lot of problem with M666-calibration / Bed-Scraping Calibration Disaster(Auto-level feature added to 2017 model) / Extruder Tube blocking the print because it didn't go fully inside the hot-end, a LOT of rattling sound(I now figure that vibration dampener on stepper motors might help, stock-endStop had it's metal part Bend(which caused in-accurate M666 calibration Result. Later changed to optical sensor because of this problem, Bowden tube seems to be low-quality(a lot of slack / stringing problem, despite various retraction speed / length settings, Dangerous Power supply Live-AC wire terminal pretty close to where you can get your fingers on.
But overall, it didn't suck THAT much, it just sucked. If I take a look at it now, I might be able to make it work again.

Attension please
This kit is not longer available!
Don't do the same mistake like me and buy another Delta Printer!
Scott's seems to be a good construction but there are a loot of rubbish on the web.
Start with a normal Printer like in his first video, but with a steel frame!
For example look up for the wanhao i3 v2. 1. It makes great prints, is easy for beginner's und the price is under 400 Euro!
Please trust me!
And if you have experience with 3d printing maybe you can build your one Delta machine.

Other delta printers offer more build space per, like Biqu or Anycubic.
But the special metal parts here make sense and look like a real improvement.
The printer is now offered for 340 including heatbed and auto-level.
Only putting the extruder motor on top does not look like the best technical solution to me, because it means the bowden tube is longer, thus extrusion and retraction are less precise.

3d Printers have come a long way and my Anet A8 3D Printer Prusa i3 has no problems at all i get every print a success long as what i am printing is realistic and not impossible with a good bed level. Quality has improved so much in this clones although i think the ramps board might be a better option as i am currently trying to figure out how to modify this board to print 300 polycarbonate

I bought this printer about a year ago and have been trying to figure it out ever since, instructions are poor English and very incomplete, I had to email a Kevin guy for missing parts multiple times. about 95 percent finished there are no instructions on the wiring the position sensor

Hello! I have a delta 3d printer, but that s controller is bad, so i wants to buy a controller like this. Where did you got the arduino code for it? And will it works without the lcd screen? Can i upload files to it from my pc, or i need to buy an sd card reader for it?

DELTA KOSSEL 3D printer for 150 bucks message me. Connorbchavez2002 gmail. Com! Fully assembled and I love it! I'm not into delta printers so let me know of you want it. Printer needs some tweaking to work fully. But I'll ship it to you. I only have one so contact me!

Hey Scott! Question, the printed parts are in white. Kinda hard to see the print quality of each layer. what do the surface finish look like?
Also, this video is 3 years old already so how is your printer now? And would you still recommend it?

reply

with a success rate of 1/2 prints? (6: 20) WTH are you doing wrong? I own now a little anet a8 (prusa clone) and I have a success rate of (to date) 14/14 no print ever failed on me, and I couldn't imagine why it should.
