FoldaRap, the Folding Reprap (Q59934)

Since 2012, I'm traveling around the town/country/world with my little folding RepRap ! I started by a folding reprap the size of a Mendel, then a smaller version more Huxley-transportable, and finally I'm developping this one build with standard aluminium extrusions. The FoldaRap was the world's first foldable 3d-printer (yay!). More on the RepRap Wiki [FoldaRap's page](http://reprap.org/wiki/FoldaRap) Lots of pictures/videos on [flickr](http://www.flickr.com/photos/watsdesign/tags/foldarap/) My adventures/travels with it gave birth to [OpenEdge](https://openedge.cc), which grew to make even more FoldaRap and Mondrian, then moved toward the industry/education with customs Alto and the HD/HD-E. During the summer 2017 I went back working in FabLabs, but found time to update the FoldaRap with ideas waiting for implementation. I also started a [LiberaPay](https://liberapay.com/EmmanuelG/?lang=en) account to explore alternative business-models : micro-donations for the design/documentation rather than selling hardware. **[Version 4.0](https://github.com/EmmanuelG/Foldarap)** (released winter 2017) [Version 3.5](https://github.com/EmmanuelG/Foldarap/tree/FoldaRap-3.5) : released autumn 2017 [Version 3.0](https://github.com/EmmanuelG/Foldarap/tree/FoldaRap-3.0) : released summer 2017 Bringing an easier folding/unfolding mechanism (from 5min to [2sec](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyQI8Z36uE4) and a whole redesign. [Version 2.5](https://github.com/EmmanuelG/Foldarap/tree/FoldaRap-2.5) : released summer 2015 Version 1.0 : released summer 2012 (main pic by [Belowdesign](http://flic.kr/p/dW6tMP))
