Open Source 3D Printers and Robots for Makers, Hackers and Enthusiasts
About Kitchissippi Robotics
Kitchissippi Robotics is a home for open source 3D printers and robotics designs. The main development is done in Canada’s National Capital region overlooking the Ottawa River. The name is derived from the original Algonquin word for “Great River” which was the original name for the Ottawa River.
We're Open
All Kitchissippi Robotics designs are currently released under the GPL. Additionally, we strive to keep our prototype 3D printers machines as RepRap compatible as possible.
Current Projects
We’re always working on something. Currently the main focus is on developing the K02 Gemini 3D printer which is a large-format dual-material printer, and the K03 Kitchissippi Delta 3D printer which is a scalable 3D printer uncommonly designed to be made from commonly available low cost components.. Check out the blog page for the most recent information about what we’re up to.

The Kitchissippi Robotics 45 Degree Linear Carriage (A brief history)
This linear carriage design is something I have been toying with for several years now. It all started with having picked up a bulk lot of 608zz skate bearings with the intent of making a Rostock or similar delta printer some day, but mostly because I needed a few for...
