Welcome to the Thames Valley RepRap Users group forum. FAQ and more info can be found at
the wiki. (see note below)
We are a community that came together in the Autumn of 2011, to do a
group build of machines based around the Opensource 3D Printer, the Mendal/Prusa from
RepRap.org. Our first
build of 20 machines was completed early 2012, and some these machines replicated themselves for the Round2 builders. The design is revised by the interests & experiences of the members. It is driven by custom designed electronics that are part of a separate
Opensource hardware multi-axis controller project. Round 2 was completed early 2013 and Round 3 is now complete too. A Round 4 was planned, the design tested and is on a hiatus as the group has found in interest in improving a wider variety of cheaper kits that give the best of low cost and quality prints.

A number of group members still meet in Reading, Berkshire at the Reading Hackspace (
