Here are some renders of the new X-Axis Gantry design that I’ve been working on with Scott!
Update- Because a concern friend had asked me how the new gantry design handles the movement of the Goostruder I’ve added this extra render!
The MandelBot is a Bicycle Powered 3D Food Printer from the Groucho Fractal Show. I’m building it with SuperHyper – a collaborative open hardware and software project oriented around education and the development of programmatically generated devices.
This is all with the old X-Axis Gantry! Everything here fit together wonderfully on the first go around.
Scott Beibin and I stayed up all night designing and building this enclosure for the MandelBot. It’s designed to use a minimal amount of mechanical fasteners, in a style inspired by the Architect Gregg Fleishman.
