Assembling a Do-It-Yourself Plotter Step by Step Check out this incredible DIY plotter project on Thingiverse, courtesy of the talented Jonathan_K1906. The build is impressive, and we're excited to break down its key components. The base of this magnificent machine relies on two 2020 V-Slot extrusions, one for each axis. These sturdy supports ensure smooth movement and precision control over the plotter's movements. In addition to the extrusions, mini V-wheels are used to guide the carriage along the rails, guaranteeing precise tracking and minimizing any potential misalignment. To assemble this project, you will need a few essential parts: assorted M5 hardware for securing the wheels and other components in place, and of course, the two 2040 V-Slot extrusions that serve as the framework for the plotter's movement system.
