RepRapMicron brings self-replicating microscale manufacturing to hackers

Original: RepRapMicron

RepRapMicron, a project by RepRap co-founder Vik Olliver, is drawing attention on Hacker News. Hosted on GitHub, it applies the RepRap self-replicating machine concept to microscopic scales, aiming to build tiny machines with machines. The project's wiki documents the effort, and developers are discussing its ambitions for open-source microfabrication.

Why now: It is a new project from a RepRap founder extending open-source self-replicating manufacturing to the microscale, which is novel to the technical community.
