I know it is 25% the cost of your printer, but since you are looking at options…

I'm going to do just that. I didn't print out the bracket thing. How can I mount it without one. Can I buy one?
Which e3d lite do I want? Universal or Bowden
Would something like this work as it says universal? Was having a slightly difficult time looking for my Maker Select as most things are listed for the Monoprice Mini as it is much more popular.

I already have saved money. The PSU I definitely have in my bin of power bricks. It might need a new end, but I think I can handle that. On the subject of the Arduino, well, Don't take my word for it.
And as for the extruder, hotend, and printbed, lets assume I get this $30 hotend from an article, that still leaves me $90 to get a printbed. I'll buy an extruder if I need to, but honestly it's just a stepper motor held in a bracket. I really don't see how that's hard to make.
Look, I'm not saying you don't know what your talking about. Anyone who has 14 3d printers didn't get them by accident. But I'm not looking for something that'll just work right out of the box. I want to make this myself for the same reasons someone might want to own a 1987 Jaguar XJ6, and for the same reasons I never wanted anyone to help me with my lego sets as a kid. I'm only doing this because I think it's fun, not because I have to. If I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it my way.
