Rep-Rap 3-D printer
« on: May 28, 2011, »

  It all started with a Egg-bot using an arduino to print on eggs or golf balls, my advance students got the bug! They asked if they could build a DIY Rep-Rap 3-D printer using the arduino.  After many long months, they almost completed the bad boy but we ran out of time.........

  I got permission from the district to allow the students to come in during the summer to finish this awesome project. I'll post pictures of it printing when they do.

May you have Good Health...
Great Wealth.....
And your stein never be empty.
