May 13, 2016

This week is highlighting the making of open source furniture. Pick an item, and then they send you the file instead of the furniture. As fabrication tools get more personal and affordable this could be the model of the future.

Click, Send, Ship. Could move to Click, Send, Print.

Enjoy.

The idea is simple. A designer posts a CNC file for a piece of furniture. You download it and mill it yourself, or have a local shop mill it for you. Ship files, not furniture. Take a look at all of the fun and functional designs!
