Buildlog
Frame is built out of Cnc_makerslide but openbuilds v slot linear rail is alternative and much cheaper.

This is the Quantum ORD Bot. It is 3D printer mech platform made from MakerSlide linear bearing. It is extremly ridged and very easy to build. The design can easily be scaled in X,Y and/or Z by simply changing the Makerslide lengths plus belt and leadscrew lengths. This is the mini or 'Quantum' version. The parts other than MakerSlide are either off the shelf standard items or easily fabricate with a laser cutter, 3D printer or CNC router. There is a blog post giving a lot more detail.

http://www.soliforum.com/topic/6697/ord-bot-hadron-build-reprapdiscount-kit/ It looks like you have a bent Z rod, which I also got. Nag them about sending a new one, or ask to buy the trapezoidal screw, which is what I did. In the meantime, have a look at this- http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:42658, http://www.buildlog.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=1680 (ORD Bot anti-wobble system) .Once I had the Z sorted out, I was amazed at how perfect my prints were at 150mm/s without any fuss.
