African inventor has created a 3D printer

A talented inventor, the state in West Africa, has created a full-featured 3D-printer from the broken pieces of scanners, balances computers, printers and other waste electrical and electronic equipment. And interestingly, the creation of 3D-printers have Afat Gnikou Kojo, was the name of the inventor, spent less than $ 100.

E Page Gnikou for fundraising writes:

"Provide the technology in the right hands and give Africa the opportunity to not only be a bystander, but also play a significant role in the development of a new industrial revolution».

Currently Gnikou inventor working in the company WoeLab in Lome, the capital of the Republic of Togo. Creating a budget of 3D-printers for Gnikou was part of a project to develop useful technologies that may one day be used as part of a mission to Mars flight.

Kojo thus wanted to prove that if you want, you can create anything you want, having beside him only a handful of different electronic waste. And taking into account that the mission to Mars specifically choose the right tools for the job is not necessary, the use of even a seemingly normal stuff to build something high-tech now stands for all the really critical issue.
