"ExtruDraw" 3D Printed Pen Plotter

This is a full assembly walkthrough for the "ExtruDraw" printed pen plotter. STL files, the project poster with additional instructions & drawings and the CAD files can be found on the Thingiverse page for this project: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:299...

I watched the video through and realised that I mentioned Eggbot but forgot to mention AxiDraw - this is a proper commercial product with the same kinematics as this machine & which uses a similar (original EiBotBoard) control board and the same software. I don't have an AxiDraw and this is not affiliated in any way but I do have an Eggbot from the same company and both their designs and support are excellent so it has my recommendation if you want to buy rather than make: https://shop.evilmadscientist.com/pro...

Notes on the video:
apologies for the lighting, I don't have proper lights so everything you're seeing is a result of a mix of standard room light and some natural light with added forgetting to fix the white balance
apologies also for the sound, I don't have a good microphone so this was done with a cheap headset
focus is poor at times, that's also my fault when I forgot to re-set the fixed focus point
