Kossel Mini K800 Delta 3D Printer

Start building the Mini Kossel 3D printer because it's simplicity & low cost, gathering parts again. Finally I bought a Kossel mini based K800 kit from the supplier. Print quality is better than I expected, I'll record a video when I got more experience on the printer & the slicer. Good day!

Slicer program (Slicing Model)

• Slic3r (Repetier-Host) - FREE
• Cura (Ultimaker) - FREE
• KISSlicer - FREE & Paid
• Simplify3D - Paid - All-In-One program, cost $149 but it's a great program, the best I tired so far, recommended! [Tutorial 1, 2, 3]
