Fab@home
a platform of printers and programs which can produce functional 3D objects
The Fab@Home is a machine that prints static and dynamic three-dimensional objects. it can print – for example – a miniature model of a space shuttle that you can hold in your hand, not a three-dimensional picture of it on a piece of paper. The purpose of the Fab@Home is to make real objects; the Fab@Home has printed a working flashlight. The Fab@Home Project is an open-source mass-collaboration developing personal fabrication technology aimed at bringing personal fabrication to your home. Members include those who use their abilities to develop novel hardware, software and uses for digital fabricators and those who simply use it to make unique items. The Community includes hundreds of engineers, inventors, artists, students, and hobbyists across six continents. Engage with the community by participating in our blogs and forums
