Tripod-repstrap
Hi all,
... here i post some pictures of my Tripod-repstrap-demonstrator - when the last parts are ready, then i'll make some more photos of the separated components and the assembling ...
Here the complete Tripod - the toolhead and the ball-magnets-passive-joint-rods lays in the middle, i have to mill the fixings for the ball-magnets to assemble it completely.
The easy to assemble linear drives, actually i replaced the steel-nuts with milled PTFE-blocks for lesser friction ...
And here two of my (old, but still working ;) three microstep-drivers ...

Darwin y axis proof of concept
Here is a copy of the Darwin Y axis made in MDF from the proof of concept pdf. I created it on my band saw in 30 min. but I did not drill any holes first so that needs to be done before cutting it out. I think this will work for repstraping Darwin. I would love to try more parts.
