Creative plotter ;-)

#1

Hello,

I failed miserably at creating a plotter with makeblock. It accepts my commands to draw a couple of squares, and then interpretes those commands in a very creative way :wink:

I never built a plotter before. I will try again soon with the servo motors.

cheers,

Very nice and small :wink:

Here are two videos of a plotter i’ve made with 3 axis if it helps your inspiration

It uses GRBL software for the arduino board, and you cand draw all you want with inkscape and send the drawing to your arduino using GRBL controller

Thanks for the videos (though I saw them before because I search for makeblock projects on youtube often). Unfortunately I don’t have the parts that you have…

I built an improved version of my plotter yesterday and will post the video’s soon. Having few parts makes a creative mind.
