Reprap
PLEASE NOTE: This page is a historical document, the actual Wiki Mainpage for the project is now RepRap.
In addition the tumblelog reprap.soup.io provides actual informations and reports about new achievements.
WTF?
This is a robot (3d printer) that I hope to have done for Roboexotica 2007 - "Festival for Cocktail Robotics" which starts this Friday. The noble goal is to be able to print out shot glasses!
Fellow metalab guys know already from Paraflows 06 that RepRap is short for Replicating Rapid-prototyper.
If you would like to help that would be great. I'll be at metalab every night all week, but feel free to contact me.
Components
Here are the parts of the project. If you can help on them, great!
What's needed?
Urgent: Supplies needed! If you can give, lend or sell me the following things, that would be great
- Power supply: 12 volt computer power supply... the kind that come in beige boxes will work I think. GOT IT!
- Skate Bearings GOT THEM!
- Non-Metric and metric drill bits and taps
- 3 Stepper motors beefy ones would be good, but if you just have an old printer we could probably extract them.
