Infinite Z-Axis Printer Sets Goal to Self-Replicate

Hackaday posts about the Infini-Z 3D printer , which aims to eventually print a copy of itself. The printer features an infinite Z-axis design that extrudes its own legs to raise the gantry. While the printer cannot currently create a practical printer due to the need for additional parts like bearings and electronics, the creator believes these challenges can be overcome.

The project reminds one of the Creality CR-30 , which also features an infinite axis system.
