    Things - Devon Jones Created a Computer Controlled Dremel


    Things - Devon Jones Created a Computer Controlled Dremel from Bre Pettis on Vimeo.

    Devon Jones needed a robot to do his bidding and so he made a computer controlled dremel. He found an instructable by Stuart McFarlan and created it using a mix of aluminum stock, an inexpensive wood called MDF, and skate bearings.

    It now works so he's going to be able to use the subtractive process, which means he can take away all the parts of the material that are not his thing, to create whatever he can imagine.

    Here is an iphone sized video to take with you and a pixel-rich hd version for you to watch.

    This month I'm making a video every day. I'm really pleased with all these videos and the attention people have given them. Thanks to everyone who has been leaving comments, writing iTunes reviews and subscribing. If you haven't seen them all, I recomment subscribing in iTunes and downloading them all!
