John - yea, think I could go into selling them.
Phil - I`ve been so impressed, that I`m making one for school. In terms of cost:
£80 for a Prusa 2 parts set inc. hobbed bolt for extruder (unless you can find a machine to print at cost, in which case £20)
£13 for M8 threaded rods, 110 M8 nuts, 100 washers ... and a few bags of other assorted fixings.
£22 for 6 lengths of 8mm Silver steel
£40 for a nozzle (but anyone on here could machine one)
£20 worth of linear LM8UU and skate bearings
The rest is in the electronics
£55 5x stepper motors (nema 17)
£50 RAMPs 1.4
£40 Arduino Mega
£40 for 4 Polulu Stepper Drivers
Then there are a few extras/mods:
heated bed - £15/20
Metal T2.5 timing gears and belt - £25

Please.... if you add all that up, just don`t post the answer and certainly don`t tell my wife
