[https://replimat.org/ Replimat] creates practical tools for positive change. 


This wiki documents a building system which requires only a few hand tools, is compatible with other building systems, and makes more of itself.  A small number of [[:Category:Parts|parts]] are reused in many different ways to build many things [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maslow%27s_hierarchy_of_needs most people need] including tools needed to make more [[:Category:Parts|parts]].
Welcome to the [https://replimat.org/ Replimat] Project, also known as the [https://reprap.org/wiki/RBS_Overview RepRap Building System]. As an open-source modular construction system, Replimat provides you with the resources to construct a wide variety of machines at home using reusable [[:Category:Parts|parts]]. Designed for ease of assembly and disassembly, our parts are constructed from durable, reusable, renewable, recycled, and recyclable materials, making each part a multi-use carbon sink that contributes to a more sustainable future.


Replimat parts are designed for disassembly and cradle-to-cradle reusability, and constructed wherever possible from waste or other durable, reusable, renewable, recycled and recyclable materials. Replimat components form a long lasting, mult-use carbon sink for the waste streams of other processes. Component parts which can not yet be replicated are known as [[vitamins]].
Machines built from Replimat parts can be used to reproduce many of their own components, significantly lowering costs, decentralizing production, localizing supply and demand, and enabling innovation. This system reduces inventory and storage requirements enabling individuals and small groups to create custom solutions to their unique challenges. Parts we haven't replicated yet are referred to as [[vitamins]] and can be sourced from existing processes or manufacturers.


Self reproduction lowers cost, decentralizes production, localizes supply and demand, enables innovation, shortens supply lines, reduces inventory and storage requirements, spreads knowledge, and empowers individuals and small groups.
Replimat's design promotes simplicity and reusability, allowing anyone to build projects quickly and efficiently. Our system is designed for disassembly and reuse, reducing manufacturing requirements and ensuring worldwide availability. All parts are compatible with [[modular construction systems|other building systems]] and interoperate along the same [[Grids|uniform pattern]], offering versatility and adaptability for a wide range of projects.


Replimat is [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-source_hardware open source hardware], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_and_open-source_software free, libre, and open-source software], and an example of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-design_movement open design movement].  The Replimat project follows a community [[code of conduct]].

==Reasons to use Replimat==
==Progress==
* Build projects fast while having fun!
○ = Conceptualization and planning<br>
* Simple to learn and use
◔ = Identifying vitamins and [[grids|grid]] intersections<br>
* Designed for disassembly and reuse
◑ = Documented and drawn in CAD<br>
* Standard components drastically reduce inventory, manufacturing requirements
◕ = Examples built<br>
* Worldwide availability
● = Nothing more to remove<br>
* Interoperate with [[modular construction systems]]
 
==Design goals==
* The '''right way''' is the '''easiest to copy'''.
* Design parts against the [[replimat grid]] to reduce complexity and increase [[modularity and reusability]]
* favor parts which can be locally reproduced and have wide application
* enable local production via locally made machines
* consume waste materials for use as raw materials wherever possible - [[trash to treasure]]
* promote pools of compatible parts, within which innovation can happen as fast as communication
* strive toward openness and wide application of all components, production processes, firmwares and [[software]]
* Avoid unnecessary [[:Category:materials|material]] [[:Category:Transformations|transformations]].  Reduce modifications to standard [[:Category:Parts|parts]] wherever possible.

Welcome to the Replimat Project, also known as the RepRap Building System. As an open-source modular construction system, Replimat provides you with the resources to construct a wide variety of machines at home using reusable parts. Designed for ease of assembly and disassembly, our parts are constructed from durable, reusable, renewable, recycled, and recyclable materials, making each part a multi-use carbon sink that contributes to a more sustainable future.

Machines built from Replimat parts can be used to reproduce many of their own components, significantly lowering costs, decentralizing production, localizing supply and demand, and enabling innovation. This system reduces inventory and storage requirements enabling individuals and small groups to create custom solutions to their unique challenges. Parts we haven't replicated yet are referred to as vitamins and can be sourced from existing processes or manufacturers.

Replimat's design promotes simplicity and reusability, allowing anyone to build projects quickly and efficiently. Our system is designed for disassembly and reuse, reducing manufacturing requirements and ensuring worldwide availability. All parts are compatible with other building systems and interoperate along the same uniform pattern, offering versatility and adaptability for a wide range of projects.
