THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL

So, for my first try at python and gcodes, I figured I would play with the Unicorn scripts. After 3 hours, here is the result.

This is the plotterize.py script, but with some modifications.

The first and biggest one is that you no longer need a servo. The reason is that I'm a money hog and didn't want to spend money on extra stuff to move a pen up and down when the z-axis does the same thing.

I have edited this script to move the z-axis up and down instead of moving the servo up and down (You have a z-axis, why not use it?).


NOTE: This is the script only. I have yet to design something that will hold a pen (Preferably without having to remove the extruder).


FUTURE EDITS:
Try to fix the z speed
Change end print coding
Create more user variables for better interactivity



I suggest you look over the plotterize.py before changing anything not mentioned in the instructions.
Note that this is only a edited version of the plotterize script.
