The RepRap project first showed the world cheap small scale 3D printing in 2006. Their design was intentionally not very well thought out. The idea was that a 3D printer that could print its own parts would be improved through evolution like iterations, no matter the quality of the first design. This turned out to be quite correct, as a large community quickly grew around the first few RepRap designs. RepRap users started to experiment and remix all parts of the printer, including its Cartesian coordinate system.
An early non-Cartesian design was the Tripod-Repstrap[1](2007) and its geometrically similar successors Rostock (2012)[2] and Lisa Simpson (2013)[3][4]. Other non-carthesian designs include GUS Simpson (2013)[5], Morgan (2013)[6], Wally (2013)[7] and Feather (2013)[8].
All these printers tries to trade heavier geometrical computations for getting rid of hardware requirements or time consuming build steps.
Understanding the market
This is where you can describe what already exists, what is needed, etc. You may want to include inline references. [9]
To make bullets use the asterisk:
- Like this
- and like this
- and two for the next indent
- and back to one...
Project goals
Describe project goals here.
To make a numbered list use the pound sign:
- Like this

- See Help:Contents for more formatting code.
Design
Describe your design here.
- Sample gallery
-
Sample caption text.
-
More sample caption text. This would look better with different images. :)
-
Even more sample caption text.
Next level heading
You may need deeper level headings. Just keep adding equal signs to get that.
Costs
You may describe your costs here.
| header 1 | header 2 | header 3 |
