You might consider a resin printer for your high precision smaller parts. The MSLA machines are very inexpensive... no where near FormLabs prices. I bought a QIDI Shadow 5.5S a few weeks ago for US$289 delivered, but there are a few others in the same market niche. I went with the Shadow because it has dual rails on the Z axis and that's the premium Gen 2 version at additional cost from other companies. So far, the Shadow has been rugged, reliable, and the print quality, as you said, is on par with injection molding. Other than the fun of building it yourself, I don't know why you'd want a delta printer for small high precision parts unless you have a strong aversion to messy chemical goo. _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
