For this reason, building your own 3D printer is kind of a lost art. For the most part it just doesn't make sense unless you really enjoy the challenge (like I do) and happen to have a bunch of the parts you need laying around unused in boxes (like I did). So if you're here to save a buck, go spend your money on one of the many excellent budget printers out there like the FLSun QQ-S, which I used to print many of the parts for this printer.
