"Ubiquitous automated manufacturing can thus open the door to a new class of independent designers, a marketplace of printable blueprints, and a new economy of custom products. Just like the Internet and MP3’s have freed musical talent from control of big labels, so can widespread RP divorce technological innovation from the control of big corporations."

Description

"Goal of this project

"To offer an open-source, low-cost, personal SFF system kit, which we call Fab@Home. The aim of this project is to put SFF technology into the hands of those same curious, inventive, and entrepreneurial citizens. In addition, through this Wiki web site we hope to inspire users of Fab@Home to exchange their ideas for applications and their improvements to the hardware and software with us and each other. Several machines are already in use." (http://synth1.mae.cornell.edu/wiki/index.php?title=Fab%40Home:Overview)
