Beta Testing the Engravinator, Part 2

Just a quick update on the Engravinator...I completed printing the parts to build, early this morning, and I was really happy with how they came out:

A lot of that goes down to how Adam (the creator) laid these parts out, for printing.  For those who are unaware, the orientation of a part on the build plate, has a lot to do with how strong it is, under torsion, compression, tension, and shear on the X, Y, and Z axes.  This is especially a b.g deal, due to the additive nature of the plastic 3D printing process.

I also assembled the aluminum extrusion frame of the engraver.  Again, I can't say enough positive about the quality of the kit, and the thoughtfulness of the engineering.  Instead of the usual hammer nuts, or t-nuts, Adam included sprung post-insertion nuts, which can be added after assembly of the extrusions, and also don't slide around, or fall out, when you rotate the item being built.  These cost a bit more, but are really helpful!

Here is the completed frame, which is as far as I have completed, so far:

I'll continue to post here, as I build the kit, and give my thoughts on it.
