== Summary ==

The idea here is to assemble and calibrate the Prusa i3 kit that is available from 3DPrintronics in India. Once assembled, [[Siddhesh]] will likely start another project to build an experimental 3D printer based on the Prusa with the following goals:

* Multiple extruders
* Larger print area
* Add a touchscreen display
* Remote management
* Dream: Port Marlin to another board?
* <name your idea here>

'''In Progress'''

This is a log of events that track highlights of the project.

* '''25-May-2015''': The Prusa was assembled after a lot of pain that was documented in a [https://reserved-bit.com/2017/05/10/the-third-dimension-3d-printing-at-reserved-bit/ blog post]. The build is still not complete because the parts have not been put together very well and the prints are unstable as a result. It is stable enough though to print one of the parts (Y-axis motor housing) that was found to be damaged, so this is the right time to take the printer apart again and reassemble, this time with a better finishing. Things to keep in mind during reassembly:
** Replace the Z-axis end stop screw with a longer screw (M3x30 or thereabouts) and also push up the Z endstop by a bit to give some room for Z-axis calibration.
** Spare nozzles (purchased)
** Nozzle cleaning kit (purchased)
** clean nozzle fully
** Reassemble the hot end
