I'm interested to build the P3steel. 1st thing i need to do is find the laser cutting. Any shop recommended? If not i'll just google and ask quotation, what i need to do is just send the file to them rite?

Looks like a well built and sturdy machine, since they are using sheet metal as the frame and injection molded parts. The only drawback is it is not open source and the worst of all is filament cartridge is chipped (not cheap!).

Yes, the filament cartridge comes with a chip that stops you from using 3rd party filaments when you replace the filament when it runs low. Same as how laser printer toner cartridges comes with a chip that tells when the ink runs out.

Though there seems to be some instruction to hack the cartridge but it gets troublesome when you have a few cartridges to hack.

I wouldn't mind trying out their 3d scanner. storm88 any plans of bringing in the scanner instead? 
Thats, a really good advice and I strongly agree the frames need to be far more sturdies and why not steel sheet metal. I don't mind the weight because I have been building shelves using steel angle iron and these things are super rigid.

Any plans of making a set anytime soon? 

Good idea, any one interest? We can build it together. I'll go through the link u stated above 1st.

One of them replied me, ss304, rm500/set not include gst.

I had built it. It's the 2nd 3d printer. It's very sturdy and heavy.

The only problem i'm strugling with is uneven print bed. Probably my 6mm aluminium plate/4mm glass is uneven, or x/y steel rod had bent

That is pricey, that's the trade off if the place is near your home.
Maybe it's an alignment issue between the z axis frame and y axis (heat bed). Is the steel frame a little warped after assembly ? Say it rocks a little when placed on a flat surface.

P3steel cutting service and 3mm steel cost = rm250(email quoted on jan 2014),rm200(walk in around June 2015).
U can see how much steel price have drop. Bring .dxf file with u.

Additional advice.
1. Bearings in Malaysia is very expensive especially those small bearing.its cheaper to get from china and replace as they wear.
2. Screw and nuts.Shops that I visit call Hex screw as capped screw. There's 3 type of screw and nuts. Steel(refer to black) which will rust. Galvanised steel(white) will not rust but not available for all size/length. Stainless steel have all size,but some size can be very expensive like m3 50mm is double the price of m3 40mm.

Thanks, will contact them.
If i want to straight do some upgrade on the part, what's ur recommend? Now in mind is the lead screw..

They frame do not rock.its higher only at the centre of the print bed. All side is fine. So I suspect either the rods or the bed is uneven.

I don't use heat bed.because I need to hunt for the termistor.which is why I advise to buy electronic full set.

Thanks, will contact them.

I have lots of spare thermistor and hotends and electronic stuff.  I have 2 sets of ramps 1.4 also. If you need electronic spare parts you can ask me for it. I can send the thermistor by pos express since its quite thin.
Yes, better get the lead screws from overseas or china. Local supplier charge a bomb.

Thanks, will contact them.
