Prologue
-------------------
I have always dreamed of the idea of additive manufacturing ever since I saw Jurrasic Park 3 (terrible movie) and it's printed velociraptor vocal chambers. I hoped one day I would be able to print parts in my basement.

Fast forward 15 years and I buy my first 3d printer, a CR-10. After no more than a month of owning it I knew I would want another. The thing was, I wanted it to be an involving experience that would teach me a bunch of things along the way. Enter the idea of designing my own 3d printer, from scratch.

Reality
---------------------
For those who intend to follow my project as I did at the size I did, be warned. It will not be cheap. For smaller sizes I don't think the price would drop far enough to justify not buying an off the shelf model. This is really intended for larger format printers and those who want to learn how 3d printers are built and work.

This project is not for the faint of heart and a deep understanding of mechanic
