@Stoney3K Aluminum requires 660°C for melting, so I guess you'd need extra cooling for the whole rest of the machine

If only there was an extruder head for aluminium on the Mendels.
Strictly speaking this one is a RepStrap (sine it can't print parts for itself), however, a head for Al would be absolutely awesome.

@poller2810 I don't know the exact weight but I didn't modify from the original design much and it seems to be fine with solid Al parts.

Excellent!
What did you slice it with? RepRap host, skeinforge, or something else?
