Following the pre-release of my printer design, BotMaker, here is a more complete follow up, and the first section is focused on the assembly of the printer.


Here is how it looks!


The following images consist on the assembly guides version 1.0.


****Edit**** I´ve just realize that we only use one extrusions in the bottom midle, and not two like the previous render showed. There is only space for one!
































Note that there are 3 holes on the top cover - that's where I attached my electronics. In this case a ramps 1.4 board.
