=== HP LaserJet ===
[[File:HP LaserJet 3015P.jpg|thumb|right|alt=A photo of an HP LaserJet 3015P|Our trusty 2D printing workhorse 🖨️]]
* '''Location''' MechArtLab window sill
* '''Model''' HP LaserJet 3015P
* '''Purpose''' Printing two-dimensional objects in black & white
* '''URL''' ipp://npi0e1641.local/ (IPP) or socket://npi0e1641.local:9100 (JetDirect)
* '''Toner''' HP 55A (CE255A)

=== Stikka Printa ===
[[File:Stikka Printa.jpg|thumb|right|alt=A Brother QL550 label printer|Stikka Printa: ''"Kleben und kleben lassen"'' ✨]]
* '''Location''' Table near DigiGes entrance
* '''Model''' Brother QL550, Raspberry Pi 3B
* '''Purpose''' Printing sticky labels in black & white
* '''Features''' Label & sticker printing, generating QR code labels etc. Full feature set: [https://github.com/5shekel/printit/blob/master/README.md README]
* '''Options''' Transparent or non-transparent [white | pink] sticker rolls of 62mm width
* '''URL''' http://raspi-stikka.init5.ch:8980/ <small>* accessible within "Bitwäscherei-Bau" network</small>
[[File:Stikka Roll.jpg|thumb|right|alt=A Brother QL550 label printer with its cover open, showing the handle used to change label rolls|Stikka Printa: Upskirt shot 😍]]

==== Caveats ====
* The paper labels don't come off easily. After peeling off parts of it, you might have to use a solvent or duct tape to completely remove the remains.

==== Changing supplies ====
* Open the cover
* Pull orange lever up
* Remove previous roll
* Insert new roll
* Feed new roll through front feeder
* Push orange lever back down
* Close cover

==== Debugging ====
* The software sometimes chokes on large, high-frequency print jobs, and no more stikkas are coming through. In that case, the easiest is to briefly power-cycle the Raspberry controlling Stikka Printa.
* If Stikka Printa isn't accessible on the known URL, the Raspberry controlling it might not be turned on, could have gotten a new IP from DHCP, or init5.ch DNS could be broken. Start by ensuring both the Raspberry and Brother QL550 are turned on, and scanning the BW network range for port 8980 using something like: nmap -sS -p 8980 --open -oG - 10.168.0.0/24. Once recovered, please print a new QR label in case the URL has changed, and update the link in this Wiki 🙏

==== Software ====
* If you'd like to add or improve a feature, the Stikka Printa source code can be found on [https://github.com/5shekel/printit GitHub]
* To access Stikka Printa via SSH, use l: dusjagr p: clubmate42

==== Caveats ====
* The paper labels don't come off easily. After peeling off parts of it, you might have to use a solvent or duct tape to completely remove the remains.

==== Changing supplies ====
* Open the cover
* Pull orange lever up
* Remove previous roll
* Insert new roll
* Feed new roll through front feeder
* Push orange lever back down
* Close cover

==== Debugging ====
* The software sometimes chokes on large, high-frequency print jobs, and no more stikkas are coming through. In that case, the easiest is to briefly power-cycle the Raspberry controlling Stikka Printa.
* If Stikka Printa isn't accessible on the known URL, the Raspberry controlling it might not be turned on, could have gotten a new IP from DHCP, or init5.ch DNS could be broken. Start by ensuring both the Raspberry and Brother QL550 are turned on, and scanning the BW network range for port 8980 using something like: nmap -sS -p 8980 --open -oG - 10.168.0.0/24.

[[File:Stikka Roll.jpg|thumb|right|alt=A Brother QL550 label printer with its cover open, showing the handle used to change label rolls|Stikka Printa: Upskirt shot 😍]]

==== Caveats ====
* The paper labels don't come off easily. After peeling off parts of it, you might have to use a solvent or duct tape to completely remove the remains.

==== Changing supplies ====
* Open the cover
* Pull orange lever up
* Remove previous roll
* Insert new roll
* Feed new roll through front feeder
* Push orange lever back down
* Close cover

==== Debugging ====
* The software sometimes chokes on large, high-frequency print jobs, and no more stikkas are coming through. In that case, the easiest is to briefly power-cycle the Raspberry controlling Stikka Printa.
* If Stikka Printa isn't accessible on the known URL, the Raspberry controlling it might not be turned on, could have gotten a new IP from DHCP, or init5.ch DNS could be broken. Start by ensuring both the Raspberry and Brother QL550 are turned on, and scanning the BW network range for port 8980 using something like: nmap -sS -p 8980 --open -oG - 10.168.0.0/24. Once recovered, please print a new QR label in case the URL has changed, and update the link in this Wiki 🙏

''Brushology – Ways of painting with a mechatronic brush''

https://mechatronicart.ch/brushology-ways-of-painting-with-a-mechatronic-brush/

'''Dominik Mahnič'''

Dominik Mahnič (Ljubljana, Slovenia), an emblematic figure nestled between the realms of academic painting, video mastery, technology, and street art insurgency, raises questions about the perpetual dialectics between classical artistry and the onslaught of contemporary technological modalities. Within this discourse emerges the Brushograph – a complex symbol not merely of art but also of the intersections between past, present, and anticipated futures.

== Impressions from earlier editions ==

=== DIWO Week, Dresden, 15. May 2025 ===

https://www.metaknoten.net/de/veranstaltungen/diwo-week-2025/penzlograf

Dominik Mahnič ist ein Maler mit akademischem Hintergrund, ein Meister der Videoästhetik, ein Technologe und eine aktive Figur der slowenischen Street-Art-Bewegung. Seine aktuellen Arbeiten werden mit eigens dafür konstruierten "Penzlografen" angefertigt. Speziell für die DIWO-WEEK 2025 hat er eine tragbare Version entwickelt, welcher mit Pinsel und Farbe funktionieren. Zur Umsetzung werden Grafiken in Maschinencode umgewandelt und dann von dem "Zeichenroboter" gemalt. Die Software läuft auf den gängigen Plattformen und es besteht die einmalige Möglichkeit einen eigenen Penzlografen zu bauen. Es wird montiert, verkabelt, programmiert und am Ende entsteht hoffentlich jede Menge Kunst.

* Installation speed "115200"
* Prepare to be quick! ;)
* Press install
* Hold BOOT on the ESP32
* Press RST on the ESP32
* Release BOOT on the ESP32

If you keep getting "Error: Invalid head of packet" (especially on macOS?), try the [[Brushograph#Flashing_via_VSCode|VSCode method]]

==== Flashing via VSCode ====
The official firmware has decent ways of building and flashing via 'esptool'.
Clone the repo containing the ULN2003 custom firmware and use VSCode to build and flash the firmware:

* Connect ESP32 via USB-C
* git clone https://git.kompot.si/g1smo/FluidNC
* Open the folder in VSCode
* Select the branch you'd like to build
* Press Build
* Press Install

Make sure to upload things like the WebUI (see below) to the internal Flash via the FluidNC WebUIs File Explorer.

==== Latest WebUI ====
To get the latest version of the WebUI, download the [https://github.com/michmela44/ESP3D-WEBUI/releases latest 'index.html.gz'] and replace the one on your internal Flash.

=== ...or: Arduino (GRBL) ===

https://github.com/TGit-Tech/GRBL-28byj-48

Link above is a dirty hack of the "classic" GRBL to support those uni-polar servos. This is a modified fork from ruizivo/GRBL-28byj-48-Servo. This modification implements all 3-axises XYZ to a 28BYJ-48 stepper motor. The motors (28byj-48) are connected to a controller card (Arduino UNO) that uses the chip ULN2003. This board is connected to pins A0, A1, A2, A3 for the Y-Axis(IN4->IN1), 2, 3,4,5 Digital pins to the X-Axis(IN4->IN1), and 8,9,12,13 to the Z-Axis(IN4->IN1).

[https://github.com/gnea/grbl Grbl] is a free, open source, high performance software for controlling the motion of machines that move, that make things, or that make things move, and will run on a straight Arduino. If the maker movement was an industry, Grbl would be the industry standard. Grbl is a no-compromise, high performance, low cost alternative to parallel-port-based motion control for CNC milling. It will run on a vanilla Arduino (Duemillanove/Uno) as long as it sports an Atmega 328.

=== Universal Gcode Sender ===

https://winder.github.io/ugs_website/

A free and full featured gcode platform used for interfacing with advanced CNC controllers like GRBL , FluidNC, TinyG, g2core and Smoothieware. Universal Gcode Sender is a self-contained Java application which includes all external dependencies and can be used on most computers running Windows, MacOSX or Linux.

You can also set UGS to connect through wifi to the board. check this [https://github.com/winder/Universal-G-Code-Sender/wiki/Connecting-the-Controller#smoothie--network instructions].

=== Lightburn ===

[[File:brushograph_closeup.gif|thumb|400px|none]]

Lightburn is a very easy way to start putting your ideas onto canvas. You can draw directly in the software or import .svg. As it's mainly for laser-cutters a few modifications have to be made to install your custom gcode device.

I hope the settings can be easily imported from this github repo: https://github.com/dusjagr/brushograph-lb2gcode

[[File:lb-custom-settings.png|thumb|400px|none]]

A custom python script can then be used to modify the Lightburn generated gcode to add the colour pick ups at a defined path length, choose from 3 different colours, by naming the layers in Lightburn accordingly. Just Save GCode from LB, run the script, and then Run GCode and your artwork will be painted....

To setup the Brushograph in Lightburn, "Create Manually" a new Device as "custom gcode (experimental)", set the working area (130 x 120mm shoudl be ok), then click click, GRBL (standard), and it should be ready to be controlled. Select your device, and choose the USB port to connect. As we are using FluidNC, you can also connect to it via wifi.

Then you can spend hours and hours, modifying the macros yourself, for picking up colours smoothly... and join the discussion on the [https://forum.lightburnsoftware.com/t/great-success-using-lightburn-on-a-diy-brush-painting-machine/184352 Lightburn forum].

== Bonus mods & accessories ==

=== Speed mod ===
To give your motors more power, some people have done the "speed mod" running their motors on 7.5V, allowing speeds of around 2000mm/min.

=== CNC pendant ===
To use your Brushograph without the need of a PC or phone, several pendants can be used in connection with FluidNC.

[[File:Brushograph FluidDial.png|thumb|alt=A pink Brushograph controlled by a pink FluidDial CNC pendant]]

The main thing to consider when integrating things like the [http://wiki.fluidnc.com/en/hardware/official/M5Dial_Pendant FluidDial] is the limited amount of PINs still available on the ESP32, basically leaving only ''gpio.0'' and ''gpio.15'' for UART communications, with the following addition to the config required in ''config_uln.yaml'':

<nowiki>uart1:
txd_pin: gpio.0
rxd_pin: gpio.15
rts_pin: NO_PIN
cts_pin: NO_PIN
baud: 1000000
mode: 8N1
uart_channel1:
report_interval_ms: 75
uart_num: 1</nowiki>

== Possible fruther applications ==

=== Glass ===

The Brushograph could be used to paint open source paints containing coloured metal ions onto sheets of clear glass which could then be heated to above the softening point of the glass on ceramic paper in a furnace to allow the coloured metal ions to melt into the glass then cooled back down (cooling slowly through the annealing point) to give a unique but completely open source piece of glass art.

Because the Brushograph controls the speed and direction of each brushstroke it could be used to paint ceramic furnace shelf coating (also known as "kiln wash") onto a kiln shelf, with each brushstroke reflected in the texture of the shelf coating. After drying, a piece of glass could be placed on top and heated above the softening point of the glass so that the texture of the brushstrokes used to paint on the shelf coating transferred to the finished piece of glass.

=== Ceramics ===

The Brushograph could paint coloured commercial or open source ceramic glazes onto plain blank white tiles which could then be heated to leave a permanent glaze on the surface and turn the plain white tiles into pieces of open source art for tiling walls, etc..

=== Etching ===

Painting with a substance which resists chemical etching or sand blasting would allow the item to be etched or sandblasted afterwards then the etch resist removed to leave a permanent piece of art.

=== Painting With Light ===

An ultraviolet LED could be used instead of a paintbrush, with the ESP32 controlling the intensity of the LED as well as the position - this would allow painting onto surfaces coated in UV sensitive etch resist which could then be developed then etched or sand blasted.

Where a sheet of metal is used beneath the etch resist electrolytic deposition could be used to plate another metal onto the etched areas.

Where a sheet of glass is used beneath the etch resist a mirrored surface could be deposited on the etched areas.

== Optional Add-Ons ==

=== Brush Washer and Dryer ===

Instead of a pot of paint at one of the stations, a funnel and drain tube could be placed at one of the stations with a small peristaltic or diaphragm pump switched on by the ESP32 to pump a stream of water over the brush and wash the brush before it goes to a new colour of paint. Optionally, the ESP32 could switch on a small but strong fan after washing the brush to blow air over the brush to dry it before it goes to the next colour.

'''Dominik Mahnič'''

Dominik Mahnič (Ljubljana, Slovenia), an emblematic figure nestled between the realms of academic painting, video mastery, technology, and street art insurgency, raises questions about the perpetual dialectics between classical artistry and the onslaught of contemporary technological modalities.

=== either: FluidNC (for ESP32 with webUI) ===

[http://wiki.fluidnc.com/en/home FluidNC] is a CNC firmware optimized for the ESP32 controller. It is the next generation of firmware from the creators of Grbl_ESP32. It includes a web based UI and the flexibility to operate to a wide variety of machine types. This includes the ability to control machines with multiple tool types such as laser+spindle or a tool changer.

We have developed a modified version of FluidNC, that supports the uni-polar motors (again), see [[Brushograph#For_ESP32_-_FluidNC_version|below]].

==== Flashing via FluidNC Web Installer ====
* Connect ESP32 via USB-C
* Go to https://installer.fluidnc.com/
* Click "Continue" for FluidNC
* Click "Connect" to start the installer
* Select Comm port where ESP32 is connected
* Choose "Install"
* Select version "v3.9.6"
* Press "esp 32 (ESP32-WROOM)"
* Select "wifi"
* Select "firmware-update" (unless it's a fresh install or you want to wipe your config)
* Select "Install WebUI-3"
* Installation speed "115200"
* Prepare to be quick! ;)
* Press install
* Hold BOOT on the ESP32
* Press RST on the ESP32
* Release BOOT on the ESP32

If you keep getting "Error: Invalid head of packet" (especially on macOS?), try the [[Brushograph#Flashing_via_VSCode|VSCode method]]

==== Flashing via VSCode ====
The official firmware has decent ways of building and flashing via 'esptool'.
Clone the repo containing the ULN2003 custom firmware and use VSCode to build and flash the firmware:

* Connect ESP32 via USB-C
* git clone https://git.kompot.si/g1smo/FluidNC
* Open the folder in VSCode

=== either: FluidNC (for ESP32 with webUI) ===

[http://wiki.fluidnc.com/en/home FluidNC] is a CNC firmware optimized for the ESP32 controller. It is the next generation of firmware from the creators of Grbl_ESP32. It includes a web based UI and the flexibility to operate to a wide variety of machine types. This includes the ability to control machines with multiple tool types such as laser+spindle or a tool changer.

We have developed a modified version of FluidNC, that supports the uni-polar motors (again), see [[Brushograph#For_ESP32_-_FluidNC_version|below]].

==== Flashing via the WebUI ====
* Connect ESP32 via USB-C
* Go to https://installer.fluidnc.com/
* Click "Continue" for FluidNC
* Click "Connect" to start the installer
* Select Comm port where ESP32 is connected
* Choose "Install"
* Select version "v3.9.6"
* Press "esp 32 (ESP32-WROOM)"
* Select "wifi"
* Select "firmware-update" (unless it's a fresh install or you want to wipe your config)
* Select "Install WebUI-3"
* Installation speed "115200"
* Prepare to be quick! ;)
* Press install
* Hold BOOT on the ESP32
* Press RST on the ESP32
* Release BOOT on the ESP32

If you keep getting "Error: Invalid head of packet" (especially on macOS?), try the [[Brushograph#Flashing_via_VSCode|VSCode method]]

==== Flashing via VSCode ====
The official firmware has decent ways of building and flashing via 'esptool'.
Clone the repo containing the ULN2003 custom firmware and use VSCode to build and flash the firmware:

* git clone https://git.kompot.si/g1smo/FluidNC
* Open the folder in VSCode
* Select the branch you'd like to build
* Connect your ESP32 via USB-C
* Press Build
* Press Install

Make sure to upload things like the WebUI (see below) to the internal Flash via the FluidNC WebUIs File Explorer.

==== Latest WebUI ====
To get the latest version of the WebUI, download the [https://github.com/michmela44/ESP3D-WEBUI/releases latest 'index.html.gz'] and replace the one on your internal Flash.

=== ...or: Arduino (GRBL) ===

https://github.com/TGit-Tech/GRBL-28byj-48

Link above is a dirty hack of the "classic" GRBL to support those uni-polar servos. This is a modified fork from ruizivo/GRBL-28byj-48-Servo. This modification implements all 3-axises XYZ to a 28BYJ-48 stepper motor. The motors (28byj-48) are connected to a controller card (Arduino UNO) that uses the chip ULN2003. This board is connected to pins A0, A1, A2, A3 for the Y-Axis(IN4->IN1), 2, 3,4,5 Digital pins to the X-Axis(IN4->IN1), and 8,9,12,13 to the Z-Axis(IN4->IN1).

[https://github.com/gnea/grbl Grbl] is a free, open source, high performance software for controlling the motion of machines that move, that make things, or that make things move, and will run on a straight Arduino. If the maker movement was an industry, Grbl would be the industry standard. Grbl is a no-compromise, high performance, low cost alternative to parallel-port-based motion control for CNC milling. It will run on a vanilla Arduino (Duemillanove/Uno) as long as it sports an Atmega 328.

=== Universal Gcode Sender ===

https://winder.github.io/ugs_website/

A free and full featured gcode platform used for interfacing with advanced CNC controllers like GRBL , FluidNC, TinyG, g2core and Smoothieware. Universal Gcode Sender is a self-contained Java application which includes all external dependencies and can be used on most computers running Windows, MacOSX or Linux.

You can also set UGS to connect through wifi to the board. check this [https://github.com/winder/Universal-G-Code-Sender/wiki/Connecting-the-Controller#smoothie--network instructions].

=== Lightburn ===

[[File:brushograph_closeup.gif|thumb|400px|none]]

Lightburn is a very easy way to start putting your ideas onto canvas. You can draw directly in the software or import .svg. As it's mainly for laser-cutters a few modifications have to be made to install your custom gcode device.

I hope the settings can be easily imported from this github repo: https://github.com/dusjagr/brushograph-lb2gcode

[[File:lb-custom-settings.png|thumb|400px|none]]

A custom python script can then be used to modify the Lightburn generated gcode to add the colour pick ups at a defined path length, choose from 3 different colours, by naming the layers in Lightburn accordingly. Just Save GCode from LB, run the script, and then Run GCode and your artwork will be painted....

To setup the Brushograph in Lightburn, "Create Manually" a new Device as "custom gcode (experimental)", set the working area (130 x 120mm shoudl be ok), then click click, GRBL (standard), and it should be ready to be controlled. Select your device, and choose the USB port to connect. As we are using FluidNC, you can also connect to it via wifi.

Then you can spend hours and hours, modifying the macros yourself, for picking up colours smoothly... and join the discussion on the [https://forum.lightburnsoftware.com/t/great-success-using-lightburn-on-a-diy-brush-painting-machine/184352 Lightburn forum].

== Possible Applications ==

=== Glass ===

The Brushograph could be used to paint open source paints containing coloured metal ions onto sheets of clear glass which could then be heated to above the softening point of the glass on ceramic paper in a furnace to allow the coloured metal ions to melt into the glass then cooled back down (cooling slowly through the annealing point) to give a unique but completely open source piece of glass art.

Because the Brushograph controls the speed and direction of each brushstroke it could be used to paint ceramic furnace shelf coating (also known as "kiln wash") onto a kiln shelf, with each brushstroke reflected in the texture of the shelf coating. After drying, a piece of glass could be placed on top and heated above the softening point of the glass so that the texture of the brushstrokes used to paint on the shelf coating transferred to the finished piece of glass.

=== Ceramics ===

The Brushograph could paint coloured commercial or open source ceramic glazes onto plain blank white tiles which could then be heated to leave a permanent glaze on the surface and turn the plain white tiles into pieces of open source art for tiling walls, etc..

=== Etching ===

Painting with a substance which resists chemical etching or sand blasting would allow the item to be etched or sandblasted afterwards then the etch resist removed to leave a permanent piece of art.

=== Painting With Light ===

An ultraviolet LED could be used instead of a paintbrush, with the ESP32 controlling the intensity of the LED as well as the position - this would allow painting onto surfaces coated in UV sensitive etch resist which could then be developed then etched or sand blasted.

Where a sheet of metal is used beneath the etch resist electrolytic deposition could be used to plate another metal onto the etched areas.

Where a sheet of glass is used beneath the etch resist a mirrored surface could be deposited on the etched areas.

== Optional Add-Ons ==

=== Brush Washer and Dryer ===

Instead of a pot of paint at one of the stations, a funnel and drain tube could be placed at one of the stations with a small peristaltic or diaphragm pump switched on by the ESP32 to pump a stream of water over the brush and wash the brush before it goes to a new colour of paint. Optionally, the ESP32 could switch on a small but strong fan after washing the brush to blow air over the brush to dry it before it goes to the next colour.

Dominik Mahnič ist ein Maler mit akademischem Hintergrund, ein Meister der Videoästhetik, ein Technologe und eine aktive Figur der slowenischen Street-Art-Bewegung. Seine aktuellen Arbeiten werden mit eigens dafür konstruierten "Penzlografen" angefertigt. Speziell für die DIWO-WEEK 2025 hat er eine tragbare Version entwickelt, welcher mit Pinsel und Farbe funktionieren. Zur Umsetzung werden Grafiken in Maschinencode umgewandelt und dann von dem "Zeichenroboter" gemalt. Die Software läuft auf den gängigen Plattformen und es besteht die einmalige Möglichkeit einen eigenen Penzlografen zu bauen. Es wird montiert, verkabelt, programmiert und am Ende entsteht hoffentlich jede Menge Kunst.

=== either: FluidNC (for ESP32 with webUI) ===

[http://wiki.fluidnc.com/en/home FluidNC] is a CNC firmware optimized for the ESP32 controller. It is the next generation of firmware from the creators of Grbl_ESP32. It includes a web based UI and the flexibility to operate to a wide variety of machine types. This includes the ability to control machines with multiple tool types such as laser+spindle or a tool changer.

We have developed a modified version of FluidNC, that supports the uni-polar motors (again), see [[Brushograph#For_ESP32_-_FluidNC_version|below]].

==== Flashing via the WebUI ====
* Connect ESP32 via USB-C
* Go to https://installer.fluidnc.com/
* Click "Continue" for FluidNC
* Click "Connect" to start the installer
* Select Comm port where ESP32 is connected
* Choose "Install"
* Select version "v3.9.6"
* Press "esp 32 (ESP32-WROOM)"
* Select "wifi"
* Select "firmware-update" (unless it's a fresh install or you want to wipe your config)
* Select "Install WebUI-3"
* Installation speed "115200"
* Prepare to be quick! ;)
* Press install
* Hold BOOT on the ESP32
* Press RST on the ESP32
* Release BOOT on the ESP32

If you keep getting "Error: Invalid head of packet" (especially on macOS?), try the [[Brushograph#Flashing_via_the_CLI|CLI method]]

==== Flashing via the CLI ====
The official firmware has decent ways of flashing via 'esptool'.
Clone the repo and start the install script, which will flash the proper firmware:

* git clone https://git.kompot.si/g1smo/FluidNC
* cd FluidNC/install_scripts/posix
* sh install-wifi.sh

==== Latest WebUI ====
To get the latest version of the WebUI, download the [https://github.com/michmela44/ESP3D-WEBUI/releases latest 'index.html.gz'] and replace the one on your internal Flash.

=== ...or: Arduino (GRBL) ===

https://github.com/TGit-Tech/GRBL-28byj-48

Link above is a dirty hack of the "classic" GRBL to support those uni-polar servos. This is a modified fork from ruizivo/GRBL-28byj-48-Servo. This modification implements all 3-axises XYZ to a 28BYJ-48 stepper motor. The motors (28byj-48) are connected to a controller card (Arduino UNO) that uses the chip ULN2003. This board is connected to pins A0, A1, A2, A3 for the Y-Axis(IN4->IN1), 2, 3,4,5 Digital pins to the X-Axis(IN4->IN1), and 8,9,12,13 to the Z-Axis(IN4->IN1).

[https://github.com/gnea/grbl Grbl] is a free, open source, high performance software for controlling the motion of machines that move, that make things, or that make things move, and will run on a straight Arduino. If the maker movement was an industry, Grbl would be the industry standard. Grbl is a no-compromise, high performance, low cost alternative to parallel-port-based motion control for CNC milling. It will run on a vanilla Arduino (Duemillanove/Uno) as long as it sports an Atmega 328.

=== Universal Gcode Sender ===

https://winder.github.io/ugs_website/

A free and full featured gcode platform used for interfacing with advanced CNC controllers like GRBL , FluidNC, TinyG, g2core and Smoothieware. Universal Gcode Sender is a self-contained Java application which includes all external dependencies and can be used on most computers running Windows, MacOSX or Linux.

You can also set UGS to connect through wifi to the board. check this [https://github.com/winder/Universal-G-Code-Sender/wiki/Connecting-the-Controller#smoothie--network instructions].

https://brushograph-lb2gcode.onrender.com/

=== Lightburn ===

[[File:brushograph_closeup.gif|thumb|400px|none]]

Lightburn is a very easy way to start putting your ideas onto canvas. You can draw directly in the software or import .svg. As it's mainly for laser-cutters a few modifications have to be made to install your custom gcode device.

I hope the settings can be easily imported from this github repo: https://github.com/dusjagr/brushograph-lb2gcode

[[File:lb-custom-settings.png|thumb|400px|none]]

A custom python script can then be used to modify the Lightburn generated gcode to add the colour pick ups at a defined path length, choose from 3 different colours, by naming the layers in Lightburn accordingly. Just Save GCode from LB, run the script, and then Run GCode and your artwork will be painted....

To setup the Brushograph in Lightburn, "Create Manually" a new Device as "custom gcode (experimental)", set the working area (130 x 120mm shoudl be ok), then click click, GRBL (standard), and it should be ready to be controlled. Select your device, and choose the USB port to connect. As we are using FluidNC, you can also connect to it via wifi.

Then you can spend hours and hours, modifying the macros yourself, for picking up colours smoothly... and join the discussion on the [https://forum.lightburnsoftware.com/t/great-success-using-lightburn-on-a-diy-brush-painting-machine/184352 Lightburn forum].

== Possible Applications ==

=== Glass ===

The Brushograph could be used to paint open source paints containing coloured metal ions onto sheets of clear glass which could then be heated to above the softening point of the glass on ceramic paper in a furnace to allow the coloured metal ions to melt into the glass then cooled back down (cooling slowly through the annealing point) to give a unique but completely open source piece of glass art.

Because the Brushograph controls the speed and direction of each brushstroke it could be used to paint ceramic furnace shelf coating (also known as "kiln wash") onto a kiln shelf, with each brushstroke reflected in the texture of the shelf coating. After drying, a piece of glass could be placed on top and heated above the softening point of the glass so that the texture of the brushstrokes used to paint on the shelf coating transferred to the finished piece of glass.

=== Ceramics ===

The Brushograph could paint coloured commercial or open source ceramic glazes onto plain blank white tiles which could then be heated to leave a permanent glaze on the surface and turn the plain white tiles into pieces of open source art for tiling walls, etc..

=== Etching ===

Painting with a substance which resists chemical etching or sand blasting would allow the item to be etched or sandblasted afterwards then the etch resist removed to leave a permanent piece of art.

=== Painting With Light ===

An ultraviolet LED could be used instead of a paintbrush, with the ESP32 controlling the intensity of the LED as well as the position - this would allow painting onto surfaces coated in UV sensitive etch resist which could then be developed then etched or sand blasted.

Where a sheet of metal is used beneath the etch resist electrolytic deposition could be used to plate another metal onto the etched areas.

Where a sheet of glass is used beneath the etch resist a mirrored surface could be deposited on the etched areas.

== Optional Add-Ons ==

=== Brush Washer and Dryer ===

Instead of a pot of paint at one of the stations, a funnel and drain tube could be placed at one of the stations with a small peristaltic or diaphragm pump switched on by the ESP32 to pump a stream of water over the brush and wash the brush before it goes to a new colour of paint. Optionally, the ESP32 could switch on a small but strong fan after washing the brush to blow air over the brush to dry it before it goes to the next colour.

''Brushology – Ways of painting with a mechatronic brush''

https://mechatronicart.ch/brushology-ways-of-painting-with-a-mechatronic-brush/

'''Dominik Mahnič'''

Dominik Mahnič (Ljubljana, Slovenia), an emblematic figure nestled between the realms of academic painting, video mastery, technology, and street art insurgency, raises questions about the perpetual dialectics between classical artistry and the onslaught of contemporary technological modalities. Within this discourse emerges the Brushograph – a complex symbol not merely of art but also of the intersections between past, present, and anticipated futures.

=== Specs & Documentation ===
* Model: [https://automata.tech/products/hardware/about-eva/ Automata Eva ]
* Documentation: [https://docs.automata.tech/v/4.11.1/ Eva Docs]
* Gripping Tool: [https://schunk.com/us_en/gripping-systems/product/39759-0310960-egp-50-n-n-b/ Schunk EGP 50-N-N-B]

=== Usage ===
=== Connectivity ===
The WebUI is accessible either through
* its own Access Point, SSID "Eva-Playful Lima Dancer"
or
* statically assigned IP on its Ethernet interface

=== Caveats ===
* collision detection can fire due to vibrations when Eva isn't properly attached to the ground
* make sure to configure the size of the attached tool in Choreograph to prevent collisions
* ensure the READY LED on the Schunk gripper is solid green, otherwise reboot Eva

== 2D Printers ==
=== HP LaserJet ===
[[File:HP LaserJet 3015P.jpg|thumb|right|alt=A photo of an HP LaserJet 3015P|Our trusty 2D printing workhorse 🖨️]]
* '''Location''' MechArtLab window sill
* '''Model''' HP LaserJet 3015P
* '''Purpose''' Printing two-dimensional objects in black & white
* '''URL''' ipp://npi0e1641.local/ (IPP) or socket://npi0e1641.local:9100 (JetDirect)
* '''Toner''' HP 55A (CE255A)

=== Stikka Printa ===
[[File:Stikka Printa.jpg|thumb|right|alt=A Brother QL550 label printer|Stikka Printa: ''"Kleben und kleben lassen"'' ✨]]
* '''Location''' Table near DigiGes entrance
* '''Model''' Brother QL550, Raspberry Pi 3B
* '''Purpose''' Printing sticky labels in black & white
* '''Features''' Label & sticker printing, generating QR code labels etc. Full feature set: [https://github.com/5shekel/printit/blob/master/README.md README]
* '''Options''' Transparent or non-transparent [white | pink] sticker rolls of 62mm width
* '''URL''' http://raspi-stikka.init5.ch:8980/ <small>* accessible within "Bitwäscherei-Bau" network</small>
[[File:Stikka Roll.jpg|thumb|right|alt=A Brother QL550 label printer with its cover open, showing the handle used to change label rolls|Stikka Printa: Upskirt shot 😍]]

==== Caveats ====
* The paper labels don't come off easily. After peeling off parts of it, you might have to use a solvent or duct tape to completely remove the remains.

==== Changing supplies ====
* Open the cover
* Pull orange lever up
* Remove previous roll
* Insert new roll
* Feed new roll through front feeder
* Push orange lever back down
* Close cover

==== Debugging ====
* The software sometimes chokes on large, high-frequency print jobs, and no more stikkas are coming through. In that case, the easiest is to briefly power-cycle the Raspberry controlling Stikka Printa.
* If Stikka Printa isn't accessible on the known URL, the Raspberry controlling it might not be turned on, could have gotten a new IP from DHCP, or init5.ch DNS could be broken. Start by ensuring both the Raspberry and Brother QL550 are turned on, and scanning the BW network range for port 8980 using something like: nmap -sS -p 8980 --open -oG - 10.168.0.0/24. Once recovered, please print a new QR label in case the URL has changed, and update the link in this Wiki 🙏

==== Software ====
* If you'd like to add or improve a feature, the Stikka Printa source code can be found on [https://github.com/5shekel/printit GitHub]
* To access Stikka Printa via SSH, use l: dusjagr p: clubmate42

[[File:VoodooChickenMachine.jpeg|320px]]

=== Specs & Documentation ===
* Model: [https://automata.tech/products/hardware/about-eva/ Automata Eva ]
* Documentation: [https://docs.automata.tech/v/4.11.1/ Eva Docs]
* Gripping Tool: [https://schunk.com/us_en/gripping-systems/product/39759-0310960-egp-50-n-n-b/ Schunk EGP 50-N-N-B]

=== Usage ===
=== Connectivity ===
The WebUI is accessible either through
* its own Access Point, SSID "Eva-Playful Lima Dancer"
or
* statically assigned IP on its Ethernet interface

=== Caveats ===
* collision detection can fire due to vibrations when Eva isn't properly attached to the ground
* make sure to configure the size of the attached tool in Choreograph to prevent collisions
* ensure the READY LED on the Schunk gripper is solid green, otherwise reboot Eva

== 2D Printers ==
=== HP LaserJet ===
[[File:HP LaserJet 3015P.jpg|thumb|right|alt=A photo of our beloved HP LaserJet 3015P printer]]
* '''Location''' MechArtLab window sill
* '''Model''' HP LaserJet 3015P
* '''Purpose''' Printing two-dimensional objects in black & white
* '''URL''' ipp://npi0e1641.local/ (IPP) or socket://npi0e1641.local:9100 (JetDirect)
* '''Toner''' HP 55A (CE255A)

=== Stikka Printa ===
[[File:Stikka Printa.jpg|thumb|right|alt=A black&white label printer|''"Kleben und kleben lassen"'' ❤️]]
* '''Location''' Table near DigiGes entrance
* '''Model''' Brother QL550, Raspberry Pi 3B
* '''Purpose''' Printing sticky labels in black & white
* '''Features''' Transparent or non-transparent sticker rolls of 62mm width
* '''URL''' http://raspi-stikka.init5.ch:8980/ <small>(accessible within "Bitwäscherei-Bau" network)</small>
[[File:Stikka Roll.jpg|thumb|right|alt=A black&white label printer with its cover open, showing the handle to change label rolls|Upskirt shot of Stikka Printa 😍]]

==== Maintenance ====
'''To change the sticker roll'''
* Open the cover
* Pull orange lever up
* Remove previous roll
* Insert new roll
* Feed new roll through front feeder
* Push orange lever back down
* Close cover

'''Software'''
* If you feel like adding or improving a feature, the Stikka Printa source code can be found at https://github.com/5shekel/printit
* To access Stikka Printa via SSH, use l: dusjagr p: clubmate42

'''Debugging'''
* The software sometimes chokes on large, high-frequency print jobs, and no more stikkas are coming through. In that case, the easiest is to briefly remove power from the Raspberry controlling Stikka Printa.
* If Stikka Printa isn't accessible on the known URL, it might not be turned on, got a new IP from DHCP, or init5.ch DNS could be broken. Start by ensuring it's turned on, and scanning the BW network range for port 8980 using something like: nmap -sS -p 8980 --open -oG - 10.168.0.0/24. Once recovered, please print a new QR label with the updated URL, and update the link in this Wiki 🙏

* If Stikka Printa isn't accessible on the known URL, it might not be turned on, got a new IP from DHCP, or init5.ch DNS could be broken. Start by ensuring it's turned on, and scanning the BW network range for port 8980 using something like: nmap -sS -p 8980 --open -oG - 10.168.0.0/24. Once recovered, please print a new QR label with the updated URL, and update the link in this Wiki 🙏

Gandalf: Add Saturday dinner shopping list

[[File:Homemade 2024 Obere Wechten KitchenLab.jpg|400px|thumb]]
<--- Back to [[HOME MADE 2025]]

=== Kitchen Responsibles ===

As we are expecting up to '''100 people''' this year, it will be a bit more challenging to cook and shop for such a big group. Thus we need to plan and coordinate in more detail and clarify cleary from the beginning, who will be in charge for the foods on which day, and then self-organize the whole crews that help out with food preparations. The kitchen itself is well equiped for this scale of cooking, see photos below.

As usual we will primarily cook dinner collaboratively in small teams each day for everyone. Rich Breakfast is organized together. In between small snacks and meals are self-organized by whoever. To leave the kitchen for the main dinner team, please organize in the small dinning room a little snacking stations, coffee making etc. so it's not disturbing the kitchen crew's processes.

If your children are in need of other dinner times or specialized ''"wienerli mit nüdeli und ketchup"'' dishes, please self-organize both shopping and preparations.

Additionally we have 2 big gas powered BBQ grills outside, that can be used throughout the days for little snacks, sausages, hot sandwiches, grilled haloumis and monster Zucchetti, or other experiments. (please leave the poisinous experiments in other locations)

==== [[Kitchen / Cooking responsibles]] ====

'''Please only consider to be the main dinner kitchen responsible if you already have experience in planning menu, shopping and cooking for large groups.'''

The group of main kitchen responsibles will be introduced and trained in the super nice kitchen after arrival, and also will be the main contacts for questions about how to use the kitchen.

Hello, my name is Boštjan, I'm a media artist based in Ljubljana. My art usually involves technology in some way or another. Usually software or hardware. You can find out more about it [https://bostjancadez.art here]. The last 4.5 years I have been focusing on making a VR version of Line Rider. I'm looking forward to meeting some geeks/nerds like myself and seeing what they are up to \o/.
