The object
Nadya Peek led development of Jubilee, an open-source tool-changing machine assembled from 3D-printed and readily available parts. University of Washington reporting describes the device as enabling fabrication and materials-exploration workflows, while her earlier Cardboard Machine Kit reached thousands of users making hundreds of machines.
What Nadya did
Led development of Jubilee, an open-source tool-changing machine for fabrication and laboratory workflows.
Why it matters
UW identifies Jubilee as a reusable platform for fabrication workflows and documents thousands of Cardboard Machine Kit users, showing broad uptake of Peek's accessible machine-building approach.
Living-status check
UW's 2025 directed-research archive and 2026 engineering newsletter identify Peek as an associate professor leading the Machine Agency Lab.
