I got some parts in for my ORD BOT 3d printer build and I spent a good day putting it together. Well I didn’t make as much progress as I anticipated and sadly had a pretty frustrating time, mostly with the QU-BD extruder build. While it should have been fairly straight forward let me start off by pointing out the build instruction flaws.
I was greeted with a package today containing some of the parts for my 3d printer (ord boy hadron). So late last night I spent about 6 hours putting the frame together. I can’t say the assembly documentation was well spelled out, it was just barely enough to get it done. And even then I know I put some parts on wrong. I’m not worried about it though I just wanted to roughly put it together, as I have no electronics other than steppers at the moment. So I’m still waiting on the extruder, heat bed, controller. I didn’t bother running wires or aligning the rails. It moves pretty good but I need to take the gantry off and flip the mounting bracket for the extruder, also some how I have the stepper on the wrong side for the y axis even though it shouldn’t matter. I feel good about it, there were some annoying things like the front foot didn’t mount well. The holes in the aluminum weren’t tapped and the only tap I had was a cheap chinese one that didn’t work _at all_.
