Project Description
Like many others, I want to create a machine that is capable of replicating itself. My project (Hopefully) will fulfill all of the requirements of the Gada Prize.
Project Goals
The goals of this project are many-fold:
- Creation of an entire machine that is capable of achieving self replication
- The target build area size for my machine is 12" x 12 x 6"
- The majority of the machine will be printed, including fasteners, The goal is to have 0 metal (besides the motors)
- A secondary goal will be to eliminate the stepper motors altogether.
- The machine will also contain a system for removing items from the build area.
- Creation of cross-platform software necessary for serializing and controlling the build process.
- Development of mechanical systems necessary for completion.
