The parts have been shipped!

I received an e-mail from the folks at MakerGear this afternoon that the Prusa Mendel Kit has been shipped. Woohoo!

It should be on it's way to me through the auspices of the United States Postal Service. I expect it should be here by next Friday at the latest.

Parts - They are a thing of beauty

The folks over at MakerGear posted some photos of the parts in the Prusa Mendel Kit. It is great to see what I'll be getting, and hopefully they will be shipping the kits soon.

Looking at the photos this looks a little daunting. But I think I'm up to building it. It looks like a large chunk of it is the nuts, bolts, and misc. small parts. Looking at pictures of the Prusa Mendel people have posted online it doesn't look that complicated.
