The Replicant

Please download the ZIP file as this contains all the files

The Replicant is a completely DIY duplication machine. This manual machine allows you to 3d print an item and replicate it in wood or other suitable material. Gun stocks, cosplay parts, furniture pieces, the possibilities are limited by your imagination.

For example, if you want to build a Mandalorian rifle, you can print the stock, mount it in the machine, and replicate it in any wood you'd like. This will not only be much stronger and feel more realistic, it will be unique and beautiful.

A full BOM with links is provided, as well as assembly instructions. This will require a palm/trim router of your choosing. This is a stable Beta release. Some improvements might take place if I receive any problematic reports.

7-18-24 Update: Modified the rotary body and lock bar. This update will significantly improve the lockup of the rotary mechanism. This will require 2 more M5 heat inserts and 2 more m5x20mm screws. When cutting a large piece of wood, the two screws can be tightened to hold the lock bar down tightly I will update the BOM and instructions to reflect the changes this weekend. 

7-24-24 Update: Due to irregularities in 3d printing and variances in 3d printer accuracy, I modified the stylus to be adjustable. I added a set of centering jigs to the helpful tools section, allowing you to center the router and stylus perfectly. I have updated the instructions and BOM to reflect these changes
