    educational kit

    I'm building a kit I want to get into schools to teach the basics of machining in a danger-free environment. To that end I've created a wall-hanging drawbot that requires no cutting, soldering, sharp or burny things of any kind. high school kids can make it draw art and then learn about trig, physics, gcode, and so on. I want to get one into every high school.

    Drawbot - a mural drawing robot that uses gcode - CNCzone.com-The Largest Machinist Community on the net!

    Great idea! Anything that let's the kids know there's other stuff to do aside from Facebook is good in my book!

    cheers,

    It's rumoured that everytime someone buys a TB6560 based board, an engineer cries!
