About The OpenR/C Project
The OpenR/C Project is a open and free-for-all initiative to create R/C projects that you can make yourself mainly using 3D Printers. In the words of Hackaday.com: "If you’re willing to dig, the OpenR/C group has more tips on printing for strength, printing nylon, and printing flexible filaments than any other single resource on the internet right now. These guys are relentless." If you are building one of the existing projects, want to create your own and have questions or thoughts you want to share this group is the place to do so.

RepRap
RepRap is humanity's first general-purpose self-replicating manufacturing machine. RepRap takes the form of a free desktop 3D printer capable of printing plastic objects. Since many parts of RepRap are made from plastic and RepRap prints those parts, RepRap self-replicates by making a kit of itself - a kit that anyone can assemble given time and materials. It also means that - if you've got a RepRap - you can print lots of useful stuff, and you can print another RepRap for a friend… RepRap is about making self-replicating machines, and making them freely available for the benefit of everyone. We are using 3D printing to do this, but if you have other technologies that can copy themselves and that can be made freely available to all, then this is the place for you too. Reprap.org is a community project, which means you are welcome to edit most pages on this site, or better yet, create new pages of your own. Our community portal and New Development pages have more information on how to get involved. Use the links below and on the left to explore the site contents. You'll find some content translated into other languages.
