I am trying to build a Kossel xl, but I find it difficult to find all parts in Europe, especially the heated bed and the carbon rods.
Any suggestion where I could find them?
Thanks!

You can find carbon rods in almost any rc model shop or a kite shop. It is common material to build air planes or kites. If you are in a bigger city you probably have such a shop locally. You will also find small ball joints in these shops.

I found the carbon tubes for my delta in an archery shop close to my house; 3 tubes of approx 750 mm lenght each for a total of 10€ (basic tubes - good linearity)

for my point of view, absolutely not necessary to spend more in RC shop or another fields
