Unallocated Space has acquired the parts to start building a 3D printer called a RepRap Prusa Mendel.

This bot will be a valuable addition to the space and can be used as a source of custom one off parts as well as fun odds and ends.

The 3D printing initiative will be headed up by Hexjunkie, please see him if you have any questions.
