FREE access to content from Open-Source Lab: How to Build Your Own Hardware and Reduce Research Costs

This guide details the development of the free and open-source hardware revolution and provides you with step-by-step instructions on building your own laboratory hardware - largely using your 3-D printer.
In the first two chapters displayed for free now (all chapters will be made freely available the Maker community under my contract), I define the basic terms of open-source software and discusses the rise of the open-source hardware revolution and how it impacts science before exploring five pragmatic advantages to joining the open-source scientific community for both your research in general, and most importantly, your equipment and instrumentation.
