Kalle Lüütsepp made this simple and low cost wood based small 3d printer. It can probably be sourced for some 150 euro. Hopefully he will open source the build files sometime in the future.
Alle the files to make this printer are available on Thingiverse:
3D printer TRINT with printing area X,Y,Z 140x140x80 mm
Plywood (21mm) parts are CNC-machined in and some details are 3D printed. It can also do without the 3d printed pieces.
