The first RepRapUA festival brought engineers, enthusiasts and professionals to the KPI library to show how 3D printing works for entertainment, everyday life, business, science and education. The show & tell format meant that most of the day went not to the stage but to conversations at the booths, where you could compare technologies and materials, including experimental and self-made ones.

The name refers to Adrian Bowyer’s RepRap concept: a printer that prints most of the parts for the next printer — a self-replicating machine. The whole amateur 3D printing movement grew out of that idea, and that is what the community celebrates at the festival.
