to arms as guaranteed by the United States Constitution and affirmed by the United States Supreme Court, through facilitating global access to, and the collaborative production of, information and knowledge related to the 3D printing of arms; and to publish and distribute, at no cost to the public, such information and knowledge in promotion of the public interest.” So far this movement is legal since a person is allowed to create a gun for their own use.
A 3D printer is composed of many different parts, some of which include a heating bed, micro controller, electronics board, firmware, motors, extruder, and a skeleton. These components cover a lot of different fields of science. Some of these components will be modified from their traditional design for the specific purpose of this project.
