It's difficult to tell what all the required tools are. Sure, I looked at the assembly file, which seems easy enough, like an Ikea instruction manual--am I missing something?

I have not dealt with 3d printers before, but bought one 5 min. ago so I could attempt this.

Thinking of also creating a build video, but only if I felt that it was ready enough to actually build one; based on the sounds of things, the electronics assembly is still a bit of a mystery, right?

So far it has been easy but I am still missing about 1/3 of the supplies. I am building it from the build list and not from the kit. I wanted to build it at the max specs. I just finished the first page.

The physical build is pretty straight forward if you have the printed parts along with the other bits of hardware, and the electronics side seems to be more or less the same as a lot of other arduino/cnc shield projects (make sure you plug your stepper drivers in the right way). The more challenging part seems to be the software side, at least for me, and I don't have all that much experience with CNC or 3d printers.
