First blog, First post

Hi all,

As you may have guessed from the title this will be my first blog.

Why now? Why another reprap blog?


Well when I discovered Reprap I was amazed by the possibilities and cost of creating a 3d printer.
I've seen 3d printers before, but until I discovered Reprap they were always something I'd only own if I won the lottery.
After reading the introduction pages on the Reprap wiki and reading through the forums I thought I was almost ready to order the parts.
However in true newbie style I'd completely over looked some vital parts.

I posted on the official forums and the reaction to my post was a mixed some posting that I was lazy and other being very helpful.
As I learnt more about Reprap I thought back to my initial thoughts on the project and how mixed and messy it was to find the basic, get your own project going, information.

So I thought I would start a blog allow others to follow me through my personal project as well as offering a nice reference for anyone wanting to build there own Reprap.
