Introduction
Reprap is an open-source 3-D printer, under development with the goal of being able to print all the components which are used to build it.
- useful for enabling local technological development
- self-replicating
- open-source, community project
- developed on its wiki and through its mailing list
- Mendel is RepRap v.2; Darwin was v.1
- In most cases it is environmentally beneficial to locally manufacture plastic products with a RepRap than to manufacture and ship them conventionally. See : Environmental impacts of distributed manufacturing from 3-D printing of polymer components and products
Reprap.org is a community project, which means you are welcome to edit most pages on their site community portal and New Development pages have more information on how to get involved.
