RepRap state-of-the-art is well represented by John Mulac's Mulbot and Mike Jeffs' ReprapMJ. Alternatively, you can create your own individual configuration by creating a new one from scratch or by loading an existing JSON template: Custom configuration. In 2019 Adrian was awarded an MBE by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II for RepRap. Price: 399 Available on Prusa Store here Print volume: 180 x 180 x 180 mm Print speed: up to 200mm/s The Mini 3D printer version of the wildly successful Prusa MK3S, the Mini retains the 0.05mm layer precision and can still calibrate itself, but costs less than half of the i3 MK3S. Also in 2017 RepRap's creator Adrian Bowyer was awarded the 3D Printing Industry's Outstanding Contribution to 3D Printing Award and was inducted into the 3D Printing Hall of Fame. That is to say people think that the most important thing you can print in a 3D printer is another 3D printer - the whole reason for the RepRap project. RepRap was voted the most significant 3D-printed object in 2017. It has become the most widely-used 3D printer among the global members of the Maker Community. RepRap was the first of the low-cost 3D printers, and the RepRap Project started the open-source 3D printer revolution. You'll find some content translated into other languages. I also have a control display connected to the arduino but I can't seem to get that to work either.
It seems every software I try (ex: pronterface) it will not connect to the printer. I am almost finished except for getting the printer to work. Use the links below and on the left to explore the site contents. I am currently building a prusa i3 rep rap.
Our community portal and New Development pages have more information on how to get involved. 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. 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 is about making self-replicating machines, and making them freely available for the benefit of everyone. 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. 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.
RepRap takes the form of a free desktop 3D printer capable of printing plastic objects.
RepRap is humanity's first general-purpose self-replicating manufacturing machine. TED圎WB Talk: Adrian Bowyer at Imperial College, London, introduces RepRap
