SnapMaker 2.0 - Pen Attachment

Snapmaker Showcase
1

Simple z axis holder for pens and markers. Designed around the SnapMaker 2.0 but I believe it would work for the SnapMaker 1 as well.

It has two pieces. The mount which connects to the x axis, and the holder that connects to the linear bearings.

I used M4 Allen (Hex/Inbus) Socket Thumb Screw Knob Cap by GuySie - Thingiverse for the m4 cap screws.

Hardware can be found here.

3D Print Files for Pen Sled

PowerShell Script

The PowerShell script is a great example on how to find the SnapMakeron the network and send commands without having to have a 3d print, cnc, laser module attached.

Very cool. I like the powershell scripting! How would you suggest generating the gcode/cnc files? Does your powershell work on PowerShell Core (so I can try it from my Mac)?

I cover gcode in the video, and I am unsure about powershell core.

I use Vetric Vcarve for multi pen and was able to use the snakmaker software pretty well for a single color.

Nicely done !
Everything seems simple but I can see the amount of time behind the scene.
How do you get the information to build the powershell script ? Is this a standard behavior (the discovery broacast) or did you analyse (wireshark) the com between luban and the SM2 ?
Congrats again

I studied the luman code and saw the broadcast function and searched on how to do the same in powershell.

Thanks for the positive words.
