This is a Rep-Rap style CNC vacuum former design for Nema 17 motors and a DIY heater. Off the shelf electronics include Arduino Uno, TB6560 stepper drivers, and an Itead Nextion 320x240 LCD touchscreen.

Full 200x200 print area is required for the vacuum bed which also requires an entire roll of PLA plastic and approximately 35 hours to print! Most other pieces were made out of ABS for a little flexibility. 

Additional non-3d printed parts needed:

• 2 - 12"x14.75" steel or aluminum sheets for frame
• 4 - 8mmx500mm linear rods
• 4 - LM8UU linear bearings
• 2 - Nema 17 stepper motors
• 2 - GT2 16 tooth gears
• 2m GT2 timing belt
• 1mmx5mm Neodimium magnet
• 1/4" case magnetic proximity switch
• 2 - 5v controlled relays
• 1 - 2000W AC PWM control
• DIY Heater Assembly
• 1 - solenoid valve
• 3/4" Watertight conduit fitting
• Misc screws, wires, junction boxes, switches

Arduino Uno and Nextion display firmware are available as well.
