CubeSpawn consists of small Personal Factories which will, at first, make their own parts, and later make as many different things as are added to the parts library.
A “Cube” form factor makes all the machines standard, so that they can be linked together to form assembly lines, in addition, each machine has a pallet mover in the base to transport workpieces between cubes.
Plans for the first machine are expected to be published around mid-march of 2010. The plans will be freely distributed, kits will be available shortly after, for those who do not have the time, or tools to build one from scratch.

A year later I’m about where I’d hoped to be a year ago 😉 didn’t get any funding – but I built it anyway – mere weeks or a month from an operating machine – its not a fast mover, this project, but it sure has shiny parts!!
