Highland Community College, 606 W Main St, Highland, KS, 66035, United States.

Learn how to build an open source 3d printer in ONE DAY - and take it home with you. We’ll show you step-by-step how to build this modular design in an accessible and straightforward way. Bring a friend for free and work as a pair. You’ll appreciate how an open source 3d printer is designed and experience how teams can work together to build something amazing, even if they’re novices. Please visit our website for more details. Refund and cancellation policy: If you cannot make it to the workshop, you may have a friend take your place. Otherwise, sales are final. If you are not satisfied with the workshop outcome, you may return the 3D printer to OSE for a $500 refund.

We design and build open source industrial machines and publish the plans on the internet for free. The mission of Open Source Ecology (OSE) is to create the open source economy. An open source, libre economy is an efficient economy which increases innovation by open collaboration. To get there, OSE is currently developing a set of open source blueprints for the Global Village Construction Set (GVCS) - a set of the 50 most important machines that it takes for modern life to exist - everything from a tractor, to an oven, to a circuit maker. In the process of creating the GVCS, OSE intends to develop a modular, scalable platform for documenting and developing open source, libre hardware - including blueprints for both physical artifacts and for related open enterprises. The current practical implementation of the GVCS is a life size LEGO set of powerful, self-replicating production tools for distributed production. The Set includes fabrication and automated machines that make other machines. Through the GVCS, OSE intends to build not individual machines - but machine construction systems that can be used to build any machine whatsoever. Because new machines can be built from existing machines, the GVCS is intended to be a kernel for building infrastructures of modern civilization.
