Check out the Makerslide Delta Robot 3D printer on Thingiverse. My Google/ROS friend Damon has been begging me to do this for a while. Looks like I waited too long.

I also has a design for a 6 DOF version, but never rendered it.

I have being pondering with the idea of a Delta printer (especially with MakerSlide) for a while now. With a little searching I found some others out there.


This one isn't MakerSlide, but it’s pretty cool. It’s also built using a CNC router.

The one mentioned in Bart's earlier posts has started to develop.

I am starting to pool some ideas and see what I can come up with. I don’t currently have access to a 3d printer, so all the parts I fab will have to be made on a lathe or my ShapeOko.

There are a few of us playing with Makerslide and the delta's - I hope I'm going to have time to play more in the New Year.
