Sticky Notes - Unicorn Banner Plotting

Decorations in a pinch!

Note: This script is designed to work with the MakerBot Unicorn Pen Plotter: http://store.makerbot.com/makerbot-unicorn-pen-plotter-kit.html

This Python script takes your message and turns it into G-Code which prints one character on each page of a pad of sticky notes. It makes use of mifga's tricks for pen registration and page-changing.

There are configuration options at the top of the file, so tweak them to make things work best for your bot and your needs.

This is a work in progress. Fork it and make improvements on GitHub! https://gist.github.com/771967

  • Fills and/or cross-hatching
  • Deploy this as a web service
  • Clean up the code :)
