Introduction
Reprap Wilson is a descendant of the Prusa i3 style reprap. It also has elements similar to the Lulzbot Taz.
The main goal of Wilson was to replace the frame with one built from standard Aluminum extrusions (2020). Additionally, the design has a parametric build area, meaning it is relatively easy to scale the X, Y, and Z axis within reason. I've also made an effort to reduce the number of unique parts used as much as possible, and incorporated some other design ideas that I have tried on the Prusa i3 previously (monolithic Y ends, easy adjustment of the Z limit switch, integrated endstop holders, among others).
The standard BOM is for a 210mm x 210mm x 200mm build area.
Build Variants
There are two variants of the reprap Wilson design, tentatively called the R and T Series, or simply RS and TS.
