Brisbane RepRap getting built!

The Brisbane RepRap is (finally) getting built. One of the “shareholders” has found himself having abundant time for a bit, and is tacking the job in the Hackerspace Brisbane location. See James Churchill’s blog for progress reports and photos.

The group that owns this RepRap kit has a Google group – feel free to join if you’re interested!
