This is our automated compressed earth brick press. See update post of December, 2012.
This machine does not come with a power unit. A manual version is also available.
The cost of the automated machine is $9,000 USD, FOB Kansas City, Missouri, USA.
The next production run of the machine by OSE will occur in April, 2013. In the meantime, feel free to download our design files (see update post of Sep. 24, 2012) and build it yourself or have your local fabricator build the machine for you.
Note: current machine varies slightly in appearance, and does not include the soil sensor, which was deemed unnecessary in later versions of the machine. Open source components include the 5 industry standard features of the Open Source Hardware Definition - electronics, mechanical design, control code, fabrication instructions, and bill of materials. See OSE License. Note: current machine varies slightly in appearance.
