Basic description:
Idea of frames was inspired by Prusa i3 and it's clones. Y axis base frame construction is similar to Printrbot and just recently find out that similar concept of Y axis base frame was also already used in Wolfy printer one year ago. Similarly to first version of Wolfy, Z Axis frame is also the case of the whole printer. X axis have a separate fra
