Bruder 574 RC conversion weekend project!

Skeeter,

I'm jealous, sounds like a LOT of fun getting to learn and play with a new 3D printer and converting a loader! You should start a build thread including setting up and using the new printer!

Stein,

Thanks again for sharing the files and knowledge!

There's not much fun setting it up, & learning it. If it weren't for this gentleman, I would be a LONG time before I could print anything useful. Converting the loader I think will be fun

You wouldn't be so jealous if you had the credit card payments for it. I put it on my Fry's Electronics credit card. Their interest rate is Prime, PLUS 27.35%. The printer, & 4 spools of filament, plus a 32GB thumb drive was a touch over $800.oo after taxes. I plan to pay it off in 3-4 months, so that the interest WON'T kill me.

I could do a thread about getting set up, but......every manufacturers models are different. I don't think it'd be very useful. I messed with it for over 6 hours yesterday. Calibrate, make recommended adjustments, Re-Calubrate.......it's a viacious & seems never ending cycle.

I added some weight to the wheels to give the loader some more traction:
