"Kentstrapper was born in 2011 as part of the RepRap Open Source project and was the result of the collaborative effort by many people and the web-sharing of their ideas.
The 1st italian RepRap center was created in Florence, along with a team for researching and developing this low cost rapid-prototyping technology. As Kentstrapper grows up, new ideas flow in, such as the “3d printing school project”, that wants to help students learn to use this new kind of technology, or the ""Object of the month section""."
