RepRap Forum Threads

Thread where thetazzbot has same one-day workshop and similar workshop plan spreading ideas as D3D. Suggested kits: Reprappro Fisher (repo with GPL licence, build instructions), folgertech 2020 prusa i3. Note on Fisher: I (Tobben) has built one of these myself. It's not what D3D wants.

Thread where beginner decides which Prusa i3 kit to order. Community ends up recommending Makerfarm's kit.

Thread where printmate3d.com founders present their workshop-friendly Prusa i3 design. Sadly, it has a non-commercial licence. Their design can be found here.

Other Workshops

Matterhackers workshops jan 2016

botbuilder.net does Prusa i3 workshops, lists suppliers and uses libre licences. Fantastic! Instructor John Abella would be interesting contact for D3D.

BCN3D hosts 1-day intensive RepRap workshops. Doesn't include build though (they have 3-day workshops for that). The printer they use (BCN3D+) is expensive (740€ per kit), but is libre (MIT-licence), CAD files are step. Found here. Build manuals here.
