I see strides being made in open source electronics www.crowdsupply.com may be easier here because scalability (PCB fab, pick and place, etc). What would this look like for a microscope frame?

'Open source' is a great concept--but I think the bottleneck is fabrication. We need a low-cost partner building open designs at reasonable scale. Open source works so well for software because the 'fabrication' is simply computer execution (+/-compiling and distribution).
