This is a working model of an Arduino based Milling Machine created using FischerTechnik. For those of you who are unaware of FischerTechnik, it is similar to the LEGOTM Building Blocks.
A group of four Mechanical Engineering students at the Delft University of Technology (Netherlands) created this project as part of their Mechatronics class in their Second year of Bachelor of Sciences (B.Sc.) Program.
We had a little chat with Laurens. Here is the excerpt:
When did you first hear about Arduino, and when did you first start using it?
How did you end up making a Milling Machine/ 3D Printer for your project?
Here is a video showing the working of this machine. [And the Vacuum Cleaner Laurens is talking about]:
