My second attempt at an affordable sewing machine embroidery add on. This one uses readily available electronics modules and 3D printable parts where possible.

A simple Embroidery machine using an XY belt and pinion drive to drive a hoop under a standard sewing machine. Needle timing, machine power and stepper control are all provided by a PIC processor. A tablet provides the higher level formatting required for communicating with the PIC chip.

2 watt Laser Engraver, Simple, Fairly Low Cost, and Portable

Low cost, Bluetooth enabled, 3 axis CNC controller. GRBL 0.9 compatible.

An OX CNC router using Blue OX Solutions gantry plates, a Bosch Colt router, and most of the remaining parts coming from Openbuilds parts store. Table has about 22"x55" cutting capacity and I am planning on a combination T-Slot and vacuum hold down system.

Building a Sphinx based CNC based on Kyo's plans. Going with a 1000 x 500 table size.
