Hi Folks:
I started this thread for those of us who live on the other side of the pond, and need to source our own parts and components. Shipping a kit to me, is pretty expensive and then add the duty and VAT, just too much $$…thanks to OpenSource and a good community, I’m onto a scratch build.
Andy is going to verify a complete BOM (bill of materials).
I will try to post sellers of parts that turned out acceptable (mostly from eBay and Aliexpress for me).
If anybody else has had success in sourcing parts on their own, this would be a great place to share sources.
My build will be based off of the current Onshape Model, which I will date stamp here as Nov 2019, as I’m sure build updates will come along and the model will change, down the road.
This build won’t be super fast, since i will need to source a lot of stuff, but I’m thankful in advance for all scratch builders who share their finds.
Hansi
