Description
This is my design for a z-axis for a lemoncurry like DLP printer. I call it sloth DLP reprap for now. That will propably change ;-)
You will need to mount an acrylic stage to the aluminium angle.
For more information on lemoncurry visit code.google.com/p/lemoncurry/wiki/main
or
#lemoncurry on freenode.net
This is the third iteration of design and there may follow further, when i get the other parts for my printer. You can get an impression what I am planning in the first image.
I am planning to document the progress here and on my blog when I get the time: blog.krieft.de/2012/04/11/dlp-drucker/

Your STLs aren't showing because of how far off-center they are. If you move them to the origin it should fix things up real quick. (A cheater way to do that is to load them into ReplicatorG and center then click yes to save when you go to generate your GCode). ;)
