I had a feeling this was about Sam Zeloof.
I came across him on Twitter while back and found his work pretty fucking cool.
Only thing I haven’t bothered to figure out is how he managed to get started in all this. Surely doing homefab requires equipment that costs a lot of money? I can’t imagine less than tens of thousands of dollars even for very old equipment.
- _Microft 5y agoI would expect that it is certainly expensive but he seems to be building lots of his equipment himself instead of buying it. The photolithography machine is a modified microscope with a projector for example. The centrifuge for spin-coating the wafers with photoresist is also DIY'ed according to the video from the article. http://sam.zeloof.xyz/maskless-photolithography/ http://sam.zeloof.xyz/maskless-photolithography/
