As my latest experiment with 3D printing — and frankly the only one to date worthy of a blog post — I purchased the cheapest Chinese clone, Prusa i3 based printer I could find, took the parts I liked, ditched the rest and created the, “Gruvinator 3D”, 3D Printer.
The final result is a mash-up of (mostly) my own Prusa i3 style printed parts and Chinese electronics, motors and misc. hardware from the kit.
