RepRap Rapid Prototyping Flyer

Bath and Bristol Young Members are pleased to announce a lecture about RepRap, humanity's first general-purpose self-replicating manufacturing machine.

This 3D printer builds real, robust component up in layers of plastic. This technology already existed before RepRap, but the cheapest proprietary machine then would have set you back £15,000. And it wasn't even designed so that it could make itself!

The Guardian said of RepRap, "[This machine] has been called the invention that will bring down global capitalism, start a second industrial revolution and save the environment..."

Note that one of the RepRap machines will be there on the day for a live demonstration!
