The AxiDraw Drawing Machine (Legacy version)

[This documentation is for the first-generation legacy-model AxiDraw, sold prior to February 2016, with white Delrin chassis. Please Click here for information about current AxiDraw models.]



Further steps

Have a look at See it working for some examples of what the AxiDraw is capable of.

Check out the documentation on both the WaterColorBot and Egg-Bot for more details on how to use the extensions with Inkscape, in particular the Advanced topics and tips for the Egg-Bot.

EvilMadScientist have a Hershey Text extension for Inkscape - this is ideal for pen plotters like the AxiDraw, since the characters consist of drawing lines, rather than outlines like a regular font.

If you want to experiment with direct control of the EiBotBoard, see the main EiBotBoard website for full details of the serial commands available.

Remember, you can post any photos of things you've drawn using your AxiDraw to the public Flickr group!
