Once the preserve of large companies, 3D printing is now heading for the home. The founder of the open source 3D printer project RepRap tells TechRepublic about the coming revolution in home manufacturing. Imagine if replacing a cell phone was as easy as The printer -- which the company hopes will fill the gap between very expensive commercial 3D printers and inexpensive RepRap printers, its core competency -- was developed from the ground up and is not based on previous designs. “Our customers asked us Like all the best African inventions, his new design — christened the RepRap Morgan — was born of necessity. "I started trying to build a 3D printer around two years Kick off your day with ZDNet's daily email newsletter. It's the freshest tech A student at Virginia Commonwealth University wants to bring the reality an idea that 3D printing enthusiasts have so far only dreamed about - printing all the necessary parts for a 3D printer, with a 3D printer. Of course we are not talking about various RS Components (RS), the trading brand of Electrocomponents plc (LSE:ECM), the world's leading high service distributor of electronics and maintenance products, has signed a landmark distribution agreement with RepRapPro Ltd that will deliver affordable German RepRap (Feldkirchen, Germany) will introduce a new large-build-volume 3D printer at the forthcoming Euromold trade show in Frankfurt, Germany.

another 3D printing relic has been staring me down. Noisebridge owns a RepRap: the do-it-yourself printer that started the hobby 3D printer movement back in 2005. Noisebridge’s particular model is a Prusa Mendel, which was first invented in 2010. Poland and Hong Kong based GADGETS3D has introduced the small-sized, low-cost RepRap G3D, especially designed for schools, small businesses and individual customers. Next month, GADGETS3D will launch its “3D Printer in Every School” project. Starting on July 28, NextFab Studio will be hosting three weekend events in Philadelphia where people will be building their own MendelMax 1.5, the most advanced version of the RepRap 3D printer. How does that work? Well, the RepRap is a particularly you can use your 3D printer to print yourself another 3D printer. Called RepRap, it has more than an air of Heath Robinson about it, with its open circuit boards, gears and worm drives. But it is a fully functioning 3D printer, which you can build yourself .
