Printrbot Simple Metal - Printbed Upgrade

thingiverse

UPDATE **So I finally got around to more tweaking, Swapped out the power supply for an up-cycled ATX power supply. Hooked up the power switch, voltage and current meters and re-did the wiring completely which neatened things up a little. hope you guys enjoy :) UPDATE **I've modified the swivel feet to allow the printrbot to tilt onto its side. no more need to awkwardly balance the printer upside down in order to get to the board.** Have a look at my project page here: https://hackaday.io/project/7083-printrbot-simple-metal-bed-upgrade I had the new printbed cut from 3mm and 4mm Aluminium and tapped the holes in the 3mm frame to make things easier. The new print volume is 270mm × 205mm × 140mm the A3 sized .pdf files are also uploaded. as for the parts to be printed, i mostly printed with 0.2mm layers and 15% infill, 20% for some structural parts. I'm still updating as i go along, the parts here already have some of the errors fixed. Enjoy
