Buying a Ormerod or not ? (4 replies)

Hi everyone.
I will start to say that i totally new to 3d printing and i´m trying to learn as quick as possible.
I been looking at this printer and my first thought was that this machine i want !
But when i started to read in this forum i become more and more unsure because of all the problems there seams to be.

At this moment i thinking about if i will buy this one or the older mono mendel.

Are there anyone who can explain why i should buy the Ormerod instead of the mendel (or should I)

I´m interested in raspberry pi and Arduino and looking forward to trying use the Raspberry camera to view the print and show data from the printer.
When i was reading about the mendel I saw something about that but do you think it will be possible on this one as well in the future.
It is possible to communicate with the electronics on the I2c port or i must buy the expansion board to do that.

Has anyone tried to put the Ormerod in a box ? If yes, It is possible to handle the extra fan in the box to keep a steady temperature while printing ?

If i buy one from RS today will some of the problems a read about be fixed on that one ?

Many difficult questions but i hope someone take time to answer some of them.

regards Peter
