Build a RepRap 3D Printer

Darwin 
Introduction to the RepRap 3D printer, a self-replicating fabrication machine based on a three-axis positioning system with an thermoplastic extruder much like a motorized glue gun. It's a 3-D Printer that makes plastic parts and is made of plastic parts, so it can make copies of itself (along with other useful or beautiful things. Start here if you want to build your own.
Cartesian Bot 
The 3-axis positioning system.
Thermoplast Extruder 
The plastic extruder that's the heart of the RepRap. (It's like a motorized glue gun.)
Please Note
