The project is not stalled but rather I have been spending the time getting to know the "How to's" of 3D printer repair, as well as doing a few mods to the printer.
Got the nichrome wire and Kapton tape for the heated bed and so just need the appropriate thermister and a decent power supply.
Since I started turning up at the local field with 3D printed items I have been getting a string of orders and so I am hesitant to dismantle my printer at this time. Some of the orders have and do require special designs,
. In addition I am contemplating extending the bed to 150 x 300 to suit some of the larger jobs but then a heated bed would be a mandatory requirement.
Spare parts printer will be ordered soon but the local currency is diving like Trump's popularity, (only faster!). Also I have needed to buy more filament as I have burned through almost all of my original rolls of filament.
A Question for the Gurus of 3D printing! What do you use to glue the various pieces together when required?
Must get back to flying again soon, 3D printing and part design is a huge time sink!
Have fun!
