> say you did have a 3D chip printer, but you didn’t know how it worked and you couldn’t look inside, would that be open source?

How could that possibly be Open Source? :)

If it breaks, or you want to modify it, then it's a no go.

The stuff you'd be able to create from such a thing could be, but the 3D chip printer itself... nope.
