The EggBot project is an open-source hardware+software project compliant with the Open Source Hardware Definition.
- EggBot code is hosted at our Google Code Project, EggBotCode.
- The EiBotBoard is documented at www.schmalzhaus.com.
For the rest, you can download the Egg-bot hardware reference design here (170 kB .zip archive).
The reference design includes the following files:
- Bill of materials, CSV format
- 1/4" plywood pen-arm parts, Inkscape SVG
- 1/4" Poplar pen-arm part, Inkscape SVG
- 0.020" delrin part, Inkscape SVG
- 0.010" acetal copolymer, Inkscape SVG
- Eggbot chassis "acrylic" reference design, Inkscape SVG
- Eggbot chassis original design, gEDA/PCB
The wood and plastic parts can be cut by standard laser-cutting processes, or other machine tools at your discretion. The Egg-Bot production chassis is made from fiberglass in a PCB process; a reference version is also provided in case you would like to make one from laser-cut acrylic (or other materials) instead.
The Egg-bot was designed in Inkscape, with assistance from gEDA/PCB.

Please read copying.txt for more information. You can make, modify, and sell hardware based on this reference design, but please respect our trademarks. We suggest the names "EggPlot," "SpherePlot," or "EggPlotBot" for open source derivatives. If you make and sell hardware based on this design, it is your responsibility to clearly identify who made it-- for simple reasons of liability and customer support.
