If you have a access to a milling machine/router that can handle the size of parts google I3 graber and make your own frame from aluminium or ply (The DXF files are open source and freely available) and buy everything else separately.
I am about to rebuild my Mendel to a I3 Graber so I can write you a list of parts and do a little build diary if you want.
I wouldn't expect to save money doing it yourself but I would expect the product to be far superior. Autolevelling is an inductive (Or capacitve sensor) cost me £1.50 to implement with a chinese special but sourced from UK still under £10.Last edited by Desertboy; 25-04-2017 at 03:52 PM.
