Description

Isaac is a derivative of Mendel with the primary goal of making it easier to machine on 2.5D CNC machines. Isaac is a RepRap/RepStrap hybrid with parts that can be either printed on a Mendel sized 3D printer or CNC machined.


What's Different

  • Vitamins: We have reduced the number of nuts/bolts/washers/bearings used to minimize costs where possible
    • Rods: We have reduced the number and some lengths of threaded rods
  • Components: We have reduced the number of machined/printed pieces from ??? to just 45 (19 unique parts)

Current Status

We have begun selling Isaac kits. The Alibre assembly files are complete and are now posted. We are constantly updating the build documentation.
