4xiDraw

The 4xiDraw Extensions for Inkscape - Software to drive the 4xiDraw drawing machine.

More about 4xiDraw: https://www.instructables.com/id/4xiDraw/


Install as you would any other Inkscape extension.

I use the following GRBL setup:

$100=100.000
$101=100.000
$110=5000.000
$111=5000.000
$120=1000.000
$121=1000.000
$130=200.000
$131=200.000
$132=200.000
$N0=M3S90

Dependencies:

  1. plotink helper routines for Inkscape extensions.
  2. eggbot_hatch.py from the EggBot extensions for Inkscape.
  3. Pyserial. (Note that an older version, 2.7, must be used on Windows.)

Known issues:

  • There is apparently a rounding error somewhere, so the start and end of a drawing does not always line up.
  • The speed is lower than it should be.

This is based on the AxiDraw inkscape plugin, https://github.com/evil-mad/AxiDraw/
