Stand for Mendel
October 15, 2014 02:49PM
Have you ever wanted your Mendel to be a single unit that you could easily move?

I built a stand for mine and mounted the power supply and electronics below the bed. Now it takes up less desk space, I can easily pick it and and move it, and it looks more professional.

Let me know what you think.


3D Printer: Reprap Original Mendel with RAMPS 1.4 electronics, j-head MK V-BV 0.4MM extruder, Wade's geared extruder, setup for 1.75MM filament

Looks good, it would be nice if you had the lower profile PSU rather than a ATX computer power supply, the printer would sit lower. Still great though.

Yes, I'll attach the STL files.

You need two each of the right and left parts. The back ones are the same as the front ones. You will need 8 of the caps to bolt it down. I believe I used M3 cap screws the attach the caps to the legs.
