Hackable MakerBot Parts in the Wild! Chris
When we made MakerBot we made it so it would be hackable so that you could buy the pieces for a MakerBot and make different things with them, including different 3D printers. Chris Meyer has done just that. He’s put together a cool mill/reprap style design that utilizes the mostly assembled electronics to control it. AWESOME! Hackable MakerBot components for the win!

I have a set of MakerBot Electronics and Nema 23s (from MB) driving a K2CNC 14145 router table. It’s pretty big and the axis that drives the gantry needed to be just right. Here’s a YouTube of an early test. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vnx4oQ7FhEc Now I have to build up another Plastruder and try it out.
Another set of MakerBot Electronics is driving a RepRap Mendel with Nema 17s.
