What?
The ReMeCo Projects
The main project here:
RepRec project. (Replicating Recomposer)
A class of pick-and-place robots that can assemble useful products
including copies of themselves.
Overarching collection project:
ReMeCo Projects (Reuseable Mechanical Components) are
a collection of related projects that grew out of or are related to the
Choose your area of interest:
★ (1/3) Future cog&gear style diamondoid molecular nanotechnology.
A far term target of atomically precise manufacturing.
This is the main focus of the projects here.
★ (2/3) DIY robotic home automation.
This is a secondary focus of the projects here.
★ (3/3) Automation in outer space …
★ (4/3) Bonus: As a construction kit toy
Related: RR/TheThreeAreas

For providing productive critique/feedback/contributions please understand the following first:
Chatacter of these projects
The character of the here present projects is:
★ RMC/ExploratoryEngineering
★ GMT/Future backward development
rather than present forward development,
which is happening elsewhere.
★ Consider these notes as active development working notes ...
– Messy, highly incomplete, littered with stubs ...
★ Walls of text and endless link-lists should be avoided though.
– Preserve readability
Fundamental design choices
Please understand them and abide them.
★ deliberate non usage of friction
★ narrow range of part sizes
★ extensive use of tensioning, form-closure, self-centering
RR/BasicPrinciples
