I have basic, but clearly missing things beyond the drill and electronics (Uno, AC adapter, shield, A4988 Stepper Motor Driver with radiators)

But what else? For starters seems like I need a Probe.

What else do I need to complete?

Just found another missing item; basically the table that the gun sits on.  I think its called the "T slot plate."  

If I am not mistaken GG sells these at a pricey $100 ea. Any ideas what/were to buy?

My original question still stands. I think I am getting close...

(P.S. Forum search tool seems limited to post titles only, but I could probably find more on my own if it also included the post contents)

My assumption is they can be 3D printed. This is what I am trying to determine now. I really dont want to purchase the thumb drive and expose my banking information since they do not take credit card.

A. Well, I would need the 3D print file in that case. But considering its T-slot, I am concerned plastic is just not up to the strength needed, esp. over time.

B. They also take bitcoin I thought, but maybe not. They also have a data deletion option, which I havent looked into either.

In the original pictures it seems like an extrusion is used as the bed.

Not sure why it wouldn't work.  However I bought the full kit and didn't get that.  No biggie.

I think this would work.

@EEM-LLC

Can you tell me which piece you recommend (and possibly where to buy it)? Prefer something I know will work instead of guessing.

anyone with a working machine can confirm what is used as the "bed"? I just finished building my machine but haven't gotten electronics wired yet.

I was told by EEMLLC that the table can be either two 20X20 extrusions (I think this leaves a gap in the middle) or one 20X60 extrusion. I measured ~240mm for my build I found a stupid cheap 250mm 20X60 extrusion on ebay. Here ya'll go. https://www.ebay.com/itm/254492736127
