Foxy Unboxing

After a somewhat epic trip across the city and back, today I picked up my ORD Bot and brought it home.  The box was surprisingly small and light, but all the ingredients were in there:

Unopened ORD Bot box
The box itself, freshly arrived from the exotic Orient.

Kit in packaging, first layer
Inside the box, layer 1 - RAMPS
kit, heated bed and part of the frame.

Kit in packaging, second layer
Inside the box, layer 2 - The rest
of the frame, wiring and endstops.

Electrical components

kit I bought includes a display.

Endstops

mechanical and one set of magnetic.

Allen key in packaging
The tiniest Allen key I've ever seen!

All ORD Bot parts unpacked.
The whole assemblage.

The ORD Bot kit doesn't come with an extruder, which is part of why I chose it since I'm going to fit it with a paste extruder anyway.  Initially I'm planning to use a peristaltic pump, which seems to be the simplest option to start off with.

Let the assembly begin!
