    Here's my YouTube channel, several videos of my 3D printer and South Bend lathe are found here:

    OpenSource 3D Printer

    In 2013, I built my own opensource 3D Printer. I modified the Prusa i3 design. Controlled by: Arduino Mega + RAMPS 1.5 with Sprinter firmware. The frame is made from 1/4" laser cut steel plates and 3/4" lathe turned rods. The build surface is heated and 10" x 10" x 10". Recently, I made several improvements and upgrades, which include a large screen graphical LCD with SD card reader and a genuine E3D titan extruder. Future upgrades include a BL Touch auto bed level and 1.75mm E3D V6 Nozzle.

       Several of the parts I printed in the Makerspace:
       * Tan LCD display box
       * Purple X-axis belt tension bracker
       * Purple Arduino & Ramps box
       * Purple Printer cooler fan shroud
    


    • Exorcist3D Printer
    • 3mm Budaschnozzle to be replaced
    • View from above
    • Upgrades Waiting: 1.75mm E3D V6 & BL Touch


    1934 South Bend Lathe Restoration & Projects

    Over Christmas break 2017, I machined some small parts for my lab. These parts are cannula, used to mount soft tissues on our inflation-extension test device. The material is PEEK plastic, it can be auto-claved and machines nicely. Check out my YouTube link above, there is a quick video of the PEEK being machined. The lathe I used is a 1934 Southbend 9" Workbench 405. This lathe is a restoration project I completed in 2010.

    • 3.0mm Cannula
    • 1/8"NPT to 3.8mm Cannula
    • 1934 Southbend 405 Lathe
    • X-axis fine adjustment
    • Updated tooling post
