DESCRIPTION
The ExoCube is a moving gantry, Core XY printer that can be built to any size (within reason). The documentation is based off using standard 700mm length 3030 extrusion, resulting in a build volume of 520x490x500. If you want to increase the build volume in any dimension, just substitute longer extrusions for that direction! The build is currently in the V4 iteration, with the addition of 8 corner brackets, 4 worm-drive gearboxes for the Z, and more ExoSlides.
The ExoCube was designed to be quick and easy to build. The ExoSlides snap onto the extrusions, and the kit comes with all the custom laser cut brackets for the Core XY motion system. Outside of wiring, the printer can be comfortably assembled in under 5 hours.
The ExoCube XZY Kit includes:
So what else is needed to build a complete printer? Head over to the ExoCube Printer page under Guides for the latest BOM, build guide (also here), CAD models, and firmware. Besides the ExoCube XYZ Kit here, all that is needed is one order from Misumi for the extrusions (or your favorite extrusion supplier), and a final order to your favorite retailer for all the remaining parts (see the BOM for links).
Note: The ExoCube XYZ Kit is the motion and bracket kit only (the extrusions and other transparent parts are shown for reference)

The kit was ok as it barely allows the use of a 400x400 bed, but does print like a champ, however I still have yet to receive the corner brackets. When I made my order, I was told I could wait for the whole thing or get the kit now and brackets later, well 9 months in or more and still waiting.
