Contraptor is a DIY open source construction set for experimental personal fabrication, desktop manufacturing, prototyping and bootstrapping. Various сartesian robots can be assembled from Contraptor and used as a prototyping platform for projects such as XY plotter, mini CNC machine, 3D printer etc. Contraptor uses several developments of the Reprap project - specifically, Stepper Motor Driver boards v1.x and Arduino GCode Interpreter.

The main project site is here: http://www.contraptor.org

An effort is underway to build a Repstrap and/or Milling/Repstrap hybrid on the Contraptor platform, most likely using mini CNC contraption as a base: http://www.contraptor.org/mini-cnc
