first impressions: the servos are more musical than the Eleksdraw
-
I am slightly sad that everything happens in Inkscape, although tbf it's less finickity than "Universal G-code Sender"
-
it's far too early to make pronouncements on this, but early indications are that it is going to be way more reliable than the Eleksdraw. even just the setup with the board and clips is better than I had.

here's it in action, you can hear the machine sing for yourself (although... I either need to get less aggressive about pen up/pen down heights or I need some flatter paper)
-
*definitely* more musical @jazzmickle/1511685599882891267

the thing that my previous setup did, that i now miss, is that it would start the plot by moving the arm around the bounding box of the plot, with the pen up. just to check that it's clear, and preview the alignment.
