    I built the Micro Kossel as my second printer after wanting something smaller and easier to transport than a standard Kossel Mini. I've posted full details and the design files on my blog.

    Cool build! Seems like a cost efficient solution to use open beams too if people want to save time on printing.

    Ed that is awesome! The joints for the vertical beams are they glued? If so what did you use?

    @Dan: the frame was 3D printed precisely because v-slot is hard to find in Canada, at least in my experience
    @Eugene: Nope, not glued, there isn't any glue in the entire printer. I used 8-32 threaded rod (M4 if you want the metric) mounted in the center holes of the beam segments. You can probably do something similar with aluminum beam if you have an M4 tap as well.

    I remember meeting the OpenBeam guy before, he mentioned he would drive up to the border and meet up with Canadian buyers once in awhile. This was awhile back so it might be worth getting in touch with him haha.

    @Dan W: Minor clarification, I spec'd the frame based on Open Build's V-slot 20x20mm extrusion, not the 15x15mm OpenBeam extrusions, largely for greater strength and better print quality. As for where to get OpenBeam, Solarbotics in Calgary is the canadian distributor.
