Simple CNC plotter that can draw and burn wood. Made with Raspberry Pi Pico and Python.
This project took me 3 months to finish but I spent a lot of that time studying at the university. I learned sooo much while building this project and I hope that it will be helpful for some of you! By taking the look at my Python code (it's not perfect but it works) you can learn the basics of CNC machines and it's also a nice and simple example of H-Bot based construction.
Indystry: indystry.cc
Files, parts, code: github.com/NikodemBartnik/Pico-Plotter
Stepper motors: bit.ly/3jrCJqY
Versatip: amzn.to/3jEaGoH
Raspberry Pi Pico: amzn.to/2Tjz9Vd
MGN12 rail: bit.ly/3jvdd4f
Profile: bit.ly/2UF2auT
Additionally, there are smaller cool things like custom PCB machined on Dremel CNC with FlatCam and BCNC, some cool drawing on paper and burning wood with Versatip which turned out great and I think it's a pretty unusual use for such a thing. Sure lasers are more precise but those produce a completely different result same thing with a pyrograph.
Above you can find links to the files, code and parts I hope you like this project, share your thoughts in the comments!
