It took me 22 days working about 2-3 hours every other day to assemble the kit to a point where I can print parts. I still have some wire management to sort out, and I&#8217;ll probably eventually build a cabinet for it,  but the basic printer is finished after around 25 hours of work. Here is an animated gif I made of the time-lapse photos of the assembly process.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2456\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.summet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/anim.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2456\" src=\"http:\/\/www.summet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/anim-300x240.gif\" alt=\"Animated GIF of the build process\" width=\"300\" height=\"240\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2456\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2456\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Animated GIF of the build process<\/p><\/div>\n<p>My first print was a teardrop (the RepRap logo) shaped <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thingiverse.com\/thing:11944\">shot glass by raldrich<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.summet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/first_part-e1356033023715.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.summet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/first_part-e1356033023715-258x300.jpg\" alt=\"Teardrop Shot Glass\" width=\"258\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2459\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.summet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/first_part-e1356033023715-258x300.jpg 258w, https:\/\/www.summet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/first_part-e1356033023715.jpg 381w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 258px) 100vw, 258px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Next up&#8230;.printing all of the cool additions, upgrades, and add-on&#8217;s for my 3D printer, plus a box of spare parts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I built a Prusa Mendel RepRap printer from a kit sold by MakerGear.
