I started this project because it was so hard to put the SMD PCB Stencils in the right position. I wanted a manual X-Y opensource plotter which would require the minimum of alibaba chinese parts. Most of electronic PCBs are small so I did not want to waste money and the planet to purchase a huge tool. I wanted something we could customize , modify... This basic plotter work was designed in 24 hours using solidworks ( I have the chance to have a licence for this cool software). After I made the tool with only the PCB plotter goald in mind, I realized that it can be modified to build a small 12x12 cm CNC or laser cutter, even a pick and place machine.

I'm postting the sources in the hope we can build a community of people to modify it and expand the possibilities.

    I had time to build the first 3D printed parts and found a few mistakes.  I corrected the 3D STL FILES under solidworks for the next print.

I tried to assemble it in a CAD program and it doesn't fit the holes in KFL08 and one part even collides....

  Are you sure? yes | no
