Maureen is an open source SLA printer based off of commodity DLPs.

"It takes a thousand men to invent a telegraph, or a steam engine, or a phonograph, or a photograph, or a telephone, or any other Important thing-- and the last man gets the credit and we forget the others. He added his little mite--that is all he did." Mark Twain

Here is a list of important stuff that needs to be done anyone can do this.

TODO [ ]: Get KitBOM embed BOM to show up.

TODO [ ]: Add RepRep sidebox to Wiki (see other project pages)

TODO [ ]: get parts list for Z-stage from here and add to BOM.

TODO [ ]: build Z-stage, take pictures and write up documentation

TODO [ ]: Create a first pass of CAD files for support structure: something to mount the DLP to and something to hold the vat.

TODO [ ]: write up how to create your own vat from glass & silicone

There is a commercial version of such a printer available at B9Creator.

Some theoretical documentation and lots of links can be found at Lemoncurry.

Sub components:

1. structural frame

2. Z-stage dipping mechanism

3. vat: soda glass and aquarium silicone

4. Electronics

5. DLP projector
