Jack of all trades master of none, because I get bored easily. Let me shake your hand, same here. My channel shows that much as well. I’ve had several careers: musician, hardware engineer, software engineer, mentalist/stage hypnotist, TV and film special effects, TV and film Visual effects and back in IT, because bills here in the Netherlands are insane so you need a good income stream. But my true passion is free wheeling new ideas. Just like you! Love the channel, big sub!
Made my day :)
Awesome project. The footprint of a polar plotter is so much smaller than that of a normal plotter - it just makes so much sense!
It does look good on the table, and it helps me keep it tidy for whenever I want to make a drawing :D
Loved how you broke down those problems into bite-sized bits! 🙌Can't wait to see what other epic stuff you're gonna drop. 🚀
Been waiting for this project for years. It looks amazing!! Can't wait to see the next videos
It is super cool to see the quality go up over time
Next one has always got to be "the best one yet"
Looove the organically buggy imperfect sketches just as much as the proper ones 💜
The imperfections make it look more human
Nice one! Specially working with both distance and angels instead of coordinates. Cool problem 🤘🏻
Very cool! Can't wait for the next videos on this project!
Man this is so cool!! I love the b-roll footage and the tangent to build your own desk 😂
Nice project! Will wait for the next video, keep them coming!
"so for the first step of making my plotter I had to build my own house from scratch, to have a place to store it in"
Yeah that’s me 😅
Amazing! Keep these videos coming! 💪
I'm currently working on the 'engineering' part of a rubik cube solver (software part largely finished). Completely clueluess about engineering principles and going through a lot of trial and error. That Mark Rober course on engineering principles might just be what I need.
Anyway, really interesting video, and I appreciate the details, including the failure points prior to the successful build; really useful.
The hardware is also the toughest part for me atm, iterations are much slower compared to software!
Thanks for the sub man, hope you like the new video series too
Very nice. This is an area that hasn't seen some cool advancement in a while!
looks nice! i wanted to build a plotter for years! Maybe this will make me start.
you can do it! I wouldn't go for something as custom as I did though. There are plenty of open source resources and software to build a typical XY plotter that will perform more reliably
Ohh, nice space saving design of a plotter! I wonder what the accuracy is, have you tried to measure this? I can imagine it's very different from close to the pivot than far from it. And perhaps its better at arcs than at straight lines? Those are the kind of things I'd be curious about if you do a follow up :)
It doesn’t tend do drift off, but I’ll definitely include some tests!
There were many more problems I solved that I just couldn’t address in this video yet :) thanks for the suggestion
@@esser50k it's not so much drift that I expected (your encoder solves that), but I imagine there has to be some slack, that is magnified further out?
@@DanielSimu I see what you're saying! The stepper motor is running with 32x microstepping. So it is actually incredibly precise even when moving further out, but that's just my impression from looking at the drawings. I'll definitely test that hipothesis
@@esser50k makes sense! I somehow had convinced myself that the stepper was in the encoder axis, despite already having seen that that was not the case. With your setup you probably indeed get incredibly high precision, assuming that you can correct well for any slipping. Nice job!
@@DanielSimu slippage was really detrimental to this project, deffinitely more on that in the next video :)
Enjoyed this a lot! Following. I am slowly learning Arduino, (and Python 3/OpenCV) after a lifetime of being too intimidated...
Love it! On everything I only go as far as I need, with OpenCV all I know is how to iterate over pixels in an image xD
Great work!
Thank you! Cheers!
Cool project! What language do you program in for this project? What is anhold respurce to learn some cad drawing?
A couple of them 😅 I’m using python for the backend and the path generation things. The microncontroller code is in C++ but it’s mostly simple stuff. The UI uses typescript
Really cool project!
Work of art ✅
❤️
suuuuubbed
really want to make a polar plotter too :)
I’ll start preparing those tutorials haha
Awesome! Hackaday brought me here 😁Do you think the precision is high enough, to use a Laser module on it?
I have thought about it! It should work but I’m not sure I’d trust it
thanks... you are pretty good at teaching !
The animations were made with chatgpt
Amazing video bro! Looking to build a concrete 3d printer using polar cordenates. Exactly the same way u did it. Amazing job!
If its about learning thats cool, but for many practical reasons I would advise not to :P
nice work! We love it!
will you share your CAD files?
will put them in the github repo soon enough!
Go go algo-rhythm!😄
Best part of coding :)
This is wonderful
Glad you liked it
Link for hardware detailed specifications?
its a hobby project sir, I didn't bother measuring any specs..
The link to the code, CAD models and PCB is in the description :)
🔥
This German Guy is a genius 🔥
Awesome video dude, keep the good work. Abraço
appreciate it man
Can you draw String Art on it
like tying up strings with nails? well not like this but I guess I could design something that does that with polar coordinates
For the algorithm sht
cheers bro, appreciate it :D
