Update:
Here is a short video of it printing a tree frog. I have not finished the extruder calibration yet but it is printing pretty good.
Building upon the great work done by Marshall Peck and others.
I wanted a larger build area, stability, low part count and a easy to access tool holder.

Information on the starting point of this build can be found here:
Voxel OX - Extendable 3D Printer and CNC Platform | OpenBuilds
I increased the size of the build to accommodate 500mm z-axis lead screws from openbuilds.
The printer will start with a E3D V6 Lite hotend and will be controlled with a Azteeg controller running Smoothie Firmware.
I am including build dimensions and pictures of the build in process.

Reason for this Build
I wanted a larger build platform compared to my homebrewed printer. Also I wanted stiffer mechanics to support other types of working ends. I am thinking of adding a simple cutter in the future.
When it is completed and running it will get a dual hotend and the old printer will become something else.Inspired by
