About the project
The μRepRap project extends the open-source RepRap 3D printer to micron-scale fabrication. It uses GCODE, GRBL, NEMA17 steppers, and materials like UV nail gel and standard resin.
Useful for
- Build a micron-scale PIKA 3D printer using OpenSCAD models and wiki instructions
- Convert GCODE from PrusaSlicer into point-by-point deposition sequences
- Print a PNG image via GCODE in dip-pen mode

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
