V-Chonk
The V-Chonk is a fun open-source DIY project for tinkerers who want to build a compact CoreXY desktop printer.
Combining a small footprint with being built from printed parts and mostly off-the-shelf hardware, our “Chonky Boy” is an ongoing experimental community project designed to push the boundaries of what can be done with 3D printing. Join the community and let's keep developing it together!
