How to engage
This is a proposal of engagement of FabLabs with Open Source Ecology.
The most simple way is to create production power with open source tools like:
- Laser Cutter - Lasersaur http://labs.nortd.com/lasersaur/
- CNC Multimachine - Category:Multimachine , http://opensourcemachine.org/
- CNC Circuit Mill
- Industrial Robot Arm - Industrial Robot Intro
- 3D Printer - 3D Printer Concept
- 3D Scanner - 3D scanner
Why to engage
Engaging in these activities will help strengthen the open source (OS) community and has advantages like:
- more people capable to build OS tools
- much better documentation
- improvements of the OS tools
- wider support of OS tools
- more training offered by using OS tolls
- immediate interoperability by using the OS tools when we create the global repository of downloadable designs
FabLabs
This a list of FabLabs who are engaged in producing and using the open source tools OSE is using.
