RepRap

RepRap is an open source, 3D Printer. First let me start with describing what a 3D printer is. It creates objects in 3d by laying down colored plastic layers one one top of the other. when this dries it becomes a solid object usable for anything. This is a cheap 3D printer that can actually print parts for it self. The parts include updates. This is project is to allow small companies and private citizens a relatively cheap 3D printer.
