Belfry Fabber Mk1 rev6 by Revar

When MakerBot’s Cupcakes were in short supply last year, Revar did what any self-respecting maker would do.  He built his own from scratch.

He must have been saving up the announcement of his designs for a while, because his Belfry Fabber Mk1 rev6 is Thingiverse Thing # 1952.  Based on the comments for Things #1951 and 1953, that means he started to upload his ideas back in March of last year.  The designs were clearly worth the wait.  His ‘bot features:

  • An expanded build area (165x175x170mm)
  • A custom heated build platform
  • Internal electronics, custom LCD and keypad mounted to the front (with an itty-bitty slot for the SD card)
  • Thing-O-Matic style cantilevered Z stage and endstop support for automatic homing and centering

More?!  You need MORE information about Revar’s amazing robot???  Then more you shall have! Behold his video walk through!
