 ===== Embroidering CNC machine =====
+For this assignment we want to use the magic needle. You just need to punch down and up and will have a nice embroidering.

+And, for the automatization, we will use a CNC machine made of parts of old PC CD device from garbage. Using 3 easy drivers for controlling each stepper motor and connected as shown in the image:

Now you can use the arrows on the lower right to jog through the motors. Make sure that the dropdown box in the lower right corner is set to 1 instead of. If any of the platforms are running backwards, you can go to Tools > Options and then invert the axis for the backwards motor.
