DIY Writing Machine Using Scratch




Hi everyone welcome to our new instructables today's project is a mini CNC plotter which have been made using old recycled scratch materials so let's see how it's made
Making the Axis for the Plotter








Building the Base or Structure























Building the Circuitory




Now as usual be definitely need a circuit to drive our protector for the drivers I have gone for A4988 and for the microcontroller and arduino board more specifically and arduino Nano which I have to repair as it was a salvaged one which I have got for free from my friend you can see how I was able to repair it it in one of my previous videos hence the total materials includes a
Servo
arduino board
A4988 drivers
2 capacitors 100(uf) microfarad each and never the less a perfboard
Soldering





Stabilization of the Machine







Making the Servo Cariages






Completion of Hardware






next I glued the servo's mechanism to the y axis and also added a 12 volt adaptor in order to connect to a 12v power adaptor for a4988 drivers to drive the plotter while I chose the USB for powering the arduino itself..
SOFTWARE




























next part comes the software part we firstly need to install software known as benbox software and update the filmware provided to arduino,
next you need to make the same settings as I have done you can see in the picture above
