Build Notes for Clank-LZ
this page occasionally loads slowly
The CAD
Clank was developed in Fusion 360. The most recent .f3z (Fusion 360 Archive) and .step files are available in the CAD folder in this repo. These files have enough hardware included that one should be able to figure out which bolts / etc go where, but are not complete (i.e. in a group of four bolts, three may be missing).

the latest step file
the latest rhino file (thanks Zain!)
The BOM
A Bill of Materials for the lz machine is available in this spreadsheet. Most parts can be sourced from McMaster, DigiKey or Amazon (in the US). Other vendors include SDP-SI and Stepper-Online.
Hardware totals to around $400 USD for the machine.
Controllers used here cost about $250 USD.
The Controller
Our versions of Clank use experimental controllers that aren't available publicly, but the machine could easily be configured for use with any off-the-shelf GCode interpreter.
