I'm interested to build a reprap, it has a couple of free software
tools for converting 3d models and sending g-code to it. They have one
at forskningsavdelningen in malmö and they say it would take about
100h to print all the parts it can print that is needed for printing a
darwin, i'm not sure i'd want the to ask them to use 100h for our
project, so perhaps we can order some of thoose parts aswell.

Anyways perhaps we should start with an sanguino board and mod it for
a reprap. There is just a little but too much smd-soldering on that
board for me to solder it.. unless we get an smd-oven, which would be
another project i'm interested in building if anyone is interested.
