My name is Hunter McSwain and I am going to be a Senior at Aviation High School in Des Moines, WA. Seniors at Aviation High School are required to complete a Senior Project, and I decided to make a 3D printer because not only are they amazing but I feel confident I can make it do to my experience with robotics through FIRST. I am looking for the quickest and most cost effective way to build a 3D printer (my budget is $1000), and I understand I need a Clonedel for this (I also have access to some machinery). I have never constructed a 3D printer before and really don’t know where to start. Any resources you have would be most appreciated. Additionally, I am looking for a mentor whose job would entail answering some technical questions along the way. If you are able to help me in this endeavor in anyway, I would be more than willing to meet you at Metrix Create:Space. I can be contacted with either a reply to this thread or you can email me at moc.liamg|niawscmretnuh#moc.liamg|niawscmretnuh.

Thank you for your help,

Hunter McSwain
