Abstract: A system for making three dimensional objects. The system may have a frame, a build platform movably coupled to the frame, a vat removably secured so that the build platform may be lowered within the vat, and a movable radiation source capable of movement along an x and y-axis. The vat may have a radiation permeable flat bottom. The build platform may have a work surface disposed thereon. There may be at least one stepper motor capable of moving the radiation source, the build platform, or both the radiation source and the build platform. There may also be a power source, a data reader device and or computer communication device, and a microcontroller in communication with the at least one stepper motor and at least one of the data reader device or computer communication device.
