Vik Olliver's RepRapMicron project, an open-source effort to build self-replicating micromachines using RepRap-style 3D printing principles at micro scale, is drawing interest on Hacker News. The project, documented on GitHub, applies the RepRap self-replication concept to microscopic hardware, sparking discussion among makers about the feasibility and implications of microscale self-replicating machines.

The open source RepRapMicron project now cures resin at micron scale using light delivered through an ordinary network patch cord, its developers report. The approach repurposes standard fiber networking hardware for micro-scale 3D printing, potentially lowering the cost of ultra-fine resin printing for hobbyists and labs. The project builds on the RepRap tradition of open, self-replicating 3D printer design.
