Fab @ Home:About
From Fab @ Home
Fab@Home is an open-source personal desktop fabricator kit.
- By open-source, we mean that all of the code and designs are freely available, and you are welcome to modify (hopefully improve) them.
- By personal we mean that you don't have to share it if you don't want to.
- By desktop, we mean that it is small enough to fit on a neat person's desk.
- By fabricator, we mean a machine which can build 3-dimensional objects for you from a variety of materials, and the objects can be useful.
- By kit, we mean that you buy the parts and build it yourself, given our instructions and parts lists.
Fab@Home was conceived by Prof. Hod Lipson of Cornell University.
The design and implementation of the rest of the Model 1 (hardware, software, firmware, website, documentation) has been primarily the effort of Evan Malone.
