Easy 3D Printable CNC Drawing Machine - Draw on Cakes, Phones, Paper, Shirts | Arduino GRBL Plotter

cults3d

How to make a simple and high quality CNC drawing machine to draw on almost anything. I'll step you through how to build your own including all the files you need. I made a video guide for assembly instructions here: https://youtu.be/XYqx5wg4oLU This project has a relatively low cost and can produce some very detailed drawings. I've used it to create t-shirts, cake decorations, drawings to colour in myself (and some it coloured in for me!). You could also use it to draw out scale drawings, wedding invitations, birthday and Christmas cards and anything else you can think of. :) A second video covering uploading the code, creating drawings, and sending them to your machine will be ready in about a week.
