Imported parts list

The RepRap printer will be able to make most of its own parts in its own specification. However, there are a few parts which it won't be able to make... at least for now. The short list includes:

• Grease
• Standard electronic chips such as microcontrollers and optical sensors
• Standard electrical wiring, USB connectors, etc.
• Stepper motors
• A 12V power brick
• Bolts
• ø8 mm steel rods

We expect the printer to make all of its other parts using its FDM Rapid Prototyping technology.
