The level of care to detail is so amazingly high in this video - WOW. I appreciate the helpful tips to help you ensure everything has worked correctly, such as the troubleshooting steps for the belts, and the continuity test of the contact switches. This is particularly remarkable because it the most complicated build that I have ever seen that is made so accessible to an absolute beginner. If you have access to a few basic tools (glue gun, screwdriver, soldering iron, multimeter), you can make this.

What a calm and instructive video! Louis presents the video sitted in a sofa in a clean and wide room; although he show some parts and tools in real time, most of the real images from the project were taken before and are voice-overed, so, he doesn't talk at the same time he build the parts. The quality of the images is superb, and the images have no distracting "garbage" in background. The video from the building parts is accelerated or slowed, the camera angles changed, according with the complexity of the subject. Very good!

I have been looking for such a project. I built a laser piano roll making machine and have been trying to find a way to print lyrics without buying a $1200 printer and paying for expensive ink. I wrote all the code to do this for both matrix printers and modern banner printers before realizing how much it would cost to do this. I then thought of the idea of a plotter and have one arriving soon that is a piece of junk compared to your design. I only discovered your video because I fell asleep watching another similar one and yours came up. You video and instructions are amazing. Your attention to detail is superb and the machine looks like or better than commercial units costing a loooot. This is definitely my next printing project. I finished a major job of printing fenders for my recumbent tricycle and in the process have gotten quite good at printing impossible parts. I can't wait. After this I am afraid what I might want to build from your plans. I have not actually built anything yet but it is clear that you strive for and achieve a level of excellence that is rare today. I see from other comments that many people feel the same. GREAT WORK, KEEP IT UP

Great project. I saw another pen plotter on youtube that could actually automatically change colors, nifty, but the X-axis (or the Y axis, depending how you look at it) was just a bit unstable and was begging to be supported. In your design, the free hanging axis seems much sturdier and stable

Dear DIY Machines, This is the first video I am seeing from your KZbin Channel. Crisp and Crystal clear videography catches the eyes instantly. And still more Crystal clear audiography catches the ears without any hitch or glitch. I wonder your recording studio must be equipped with the most modern media gadgets. Thanks for both. Your way of describing a, even though you dub "Super Easy", this is indeed somewhat complex design, is simply fascinating! Stream like narration without any drag, is all the more informative. Even at first run, I was able to absorb th key points easily. Assembling a technical machine that is going to be assembled from raw components, with this type of oral guidance is, of course, as you names, "Super Easy!" Apart from the electronics and software sections, the construction fairly uses 3D Printing for many parts. So, no cutting, grinding, polishing, milling or drilling. A very nice method. Congratulations form an ardently ardent DIY Techie from the seventies!! I am about to do this. But I hope you will publish the programming section and the electronics section soon. Please make this video complete is all aspects. Thank you very much!!

Just got mine finished. Works a treat. I have modified the pen holder by the addition of a compression spring which helps the pen engage on the paper when the servo releases. I also don’t use belt on the pen, just two plain pulley wheels and a length of fishing line between the pen head and the servo. I 3D printed a small support for the pilot wheel at the servo end.

One of the better design print/writers and neatest designs. I think the axial motor mounts could have had slots to mention the belt. And I think the pen end could have been attached directly to the head, with a gear, or swivel arm to lift and drop it. I think I would have built up the shield before mounting the Uno so alignment is easier. But then you can't get the screws. And as a small part of design, the slid bearings, rather than using cable ties, a small screw could hold them there if spaced far enough away to just catch rather than misalign. Keep up the good work.

my total was less than $150 i just bought a machine for $99 which has not been delivered yet but comparing the two machines by images and descriptions it is clear that this is a much much better machine. It is more like the ones that cost $1000 to $1200 and you get to have fun and learn your printer. Forced me to do some upgrades and some experiments. My parts are coming out really nice of PLA carbon. I am going to hack up the cheapo to customize it for plotting on piano rolls as my laser machine cuts them. This machine will be my new toy. Once I prove the theory I will probably modify another copy of this machine for the roll cutter because I want reliability and durability and I know the $99 unit will not be either of those.

Hi Lewis! My son and I are in the process of 3D printing this and have a question about the linear rail. I ordered the one from your link on Amazon, but it does not look the same as what you have in the video. I did not notice later there was an option for a MGN9C (the one I received), and another for MGN12H. Can you provide more details on which one to use? Thanks for providing great content!

Hi Jim, great to hear that your building one together. I'de love to see a photo when it's completed. :) The number refers to the type of block on top, see here for more info: aws.robu.in/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Linear-Guide-Rail.jpg From memory I believe it is the MGN12H I designed the parts around.

Hello, I hear you well all the way from Chile. :) 🇨🇱 Some people who have built this have successfully replaced the servo that moves the pen with a small 5v laser as the PWM for the positioning of the servo arm translates well to control a laser. Though I've not tried this and take great care not to damage yourself or belongings!

Looks good... Might have to build and add a laser on the end instead of a pen! Instead of a plotter, you can make an engraver. Always remember to wear laser safety goggles on your remaining good eye!

I used A4988 , TB6600 , they were good for a few days , but after that ,the problem occurs. what is your stepper motor driver name?

Is it possible to make it bigger with longer rods and linear bearing or would the added length add to much strain on the 3d printed parts and motors?
@DIYMachines
@DIYMachines 4 жыл бұрын
You can certainly make it larger. A longer rail on the X axis should not add much strain to th machine, but extending the rod on the Y axis as is would start to create problems. It would certainly need two X axis if you wanted to reliably support a longer y axis over both.

I ordered them on Amazon for my prototype and I used some from eBay for the final build (shown in the video) as the ones on Amazon became out of stock. You can use a small hack saw or similar to cut longer ones down in length. Just use something like sand paper to smooth the edges of the cut before inserting them through the bearings. This is what I did.

Would it be possible/feasible to make a corexy version of this design? I ask because it seems that this takes up a lot of space outside the nominal footprint, since the bar has to go so far over the back edge of the board.
@DIYMachines
@DIYMachines 4 жыл бұрын
Hi Walter, it could be re-done as a CoreXY style but it would end up being a very different machine in many ways so probably best start from a fresh design. One of the reasons I did not go down the CoreXY route was because if the frame is not perpendicular at the four corners it can lead to dimensional inaccurate drawings. You are right though that it would mean you would not need to allow for when the pen axis is protrudes out the back of the workspace.
