The open-architecture, open-source Fab@Home platform has proven to be an
important system within the SFF community. In order to facilitate wider spread of
the Fab@Home platform and SFF throughout the world, we aimed to improve
critical aspects of the system, and business model. By changing the electronics
package and streamlining the mechanics, the cost of the system was brought from
2500to1600. By changing the business model we hope to transform the SFF
market and spur innovation.Mechanical Engineerin
