Already have a 3D printer? Want another 3D printer?! Well all right you greedy person, I'll show you how you can print your very own mini 3D printer by 3Dtje!

Why would you want to do this?

Well, lets say, you have your larger more capable printer printing high temp materials, or large objects for a project, and you would like to print small/useless/other objects at the same time.

Or, you believe in the idea behind the RepRap movement, that a printer should be able to self replicate!

Or you want to challenge yourself, and your understanding on how a 3D printer works

Or your current 3D printer is just sitting and collecting dust in the corner of your room because you have nothing else to print because you lack creativeness or the skill to design real world objects that have actual uses so you decided to browse the web and find something that does something in an attempt to prove that 3D printers have actual usefullness but settled on self replication because it seems like a worthy endeavor despite not having a solid goal in terms of problem solving.

Still with me? Let's continue...





btw the video showcases what the printer is capable of. You may require quite a bit of tuning to get it to this level, but if you're good enough, you may not need to!
