A project log for TOME - Portable 3D Printer

Portable and self contained FDM 3D printer designed to be the ideal tool for field hospitals short on supplies and nomadic engineers alike.

This project was first imagined in late 2012 and was briefly worked on as a personal project with the hopes of turning it eventually into a kickstarter. Working several jobs in preparation for a cross country move put this on hold. With a new teammate (Corey Renner) and a new venue for sharing this project (Hackaday.io) it is finally time to bring the TOME to life!

I've pulled all of the sourced components out of storage, over the next few days I will be getting back to work on the design once Corey and I have a moment to sit down and hash out final specifications for things like filament cartridge capacity, battery chemistry, and extruder design. 

More to come very soon!
