/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Oh fuck yeah, a 3d printing thread. I was at /g/ but they're a bunch of not-responding dickheads so here goes.

I went on a hardcore wiki walk earlier today about the current developments in 3d printer technology, specifically repraps, and have to say that I am hooked. I'd very much like to build one and figure that in my n00b opinion a Prusa i3 would be a pretty good place to start at. Does anyone here have experience building 3d printers in general or this one in particular?
