General Mach Discussion / Re: 3D printing with Mach 3, who is doing it?

I have a cartesian machine in the form of a cnc mill with extruder head. The delta style in theory can provide greater accuracy at higher speeds for printing. I am building a large one with a friend and we will see if that holds true as they get bigger. This one will have a circular work envelope 22" in diameter and 25" tall. Also it is somewhat easier to have a heated build chamber as the motors can be below the chamber and not heated by it.
