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.
