-Mission:  To create a delta based 3d printer for donation to LMN +
- +
-I Joe Zimmerman proposed to donate 50% of the cost of time and materials in creating a delta 3d printer such as the rostock +

-Some basic discussion has been started here: +
-https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/lansing-makers-network/y3_D3-leakI +
- +
-  - Determine which style printer we will attempt to build. +
-  - Decide on additional Electronics +
-  - Other electronics needed +
-     * Stepper motors +
-     * extruder heater(s) +
-     * power supply(s) +
-     * heated bed +

-9/18/2013.  Rumba and endstops ordered from reprapdiscount. +
- +
-We need to source the stepper motors and additional electronics.  Ask Mike about the cost of the steppers from sparkfun.com +
- +
-9/27/2013.  Rumba, endstops, wiring kit, arrived.   +
- +
-There are 4 matching Nema 17 motors on the shapoko in the basement.  (3 on the machine and 1 spare)  I think these will work and we can take them and replace the motors on the shapoko with Nema 23's +
- +
-Brent Morse also has offered up some stepper motors.  I also have a bunch of motors pulled from machines.  3 motors should be identical, it would be nice to have a total of 6 motors on hand. +
- +
-I saw a video of a rostock with quick change heads, this one in particular was making a pancake. +
- +
-http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:156715 (watch the attached video) +
- +
-I think I'd like to know more about the pros and cons of quick change heads.  I'd love to have 2 or 3 color extrusion, this might be a good way to do that without adding inertia problems to the head itself. +

-10/2/2013 The rumba kit is in, located near the laser cutter by the delta printer board +
