We've also got people making RepStraps out of copper pipe, wood, and legos. (A RepStrap is a home-built RP machine, capable of making a RepRap or other objects. A RepRap is an RP-fabricated machine, capable of making a RepRap or other objects.) For the curious, these are the relevant websites: http://reprap.org/ http://reprap.blogspot.com/ http://reprappers.blogspot.com/ http://objects.reprap.org and this is a link to the extruder head if you are looking for a weekend project: http://reprapdoc.voodoo.co.nz/bin/view/Main/Version2OfThePolymorphExtrusionHead Regards, -Sebastien ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
