<div><br></div><div>Or about 20 bucks with shipping from China.</div><div><br></div><div>ArtEngine has a couple of them so you could try one out during the ModLab open house events that are every other Wednesday. All you need is a computer with a USB port to send the programs to it. Well it helps to have little lights, switches and stuff to connect to it. Or some servos or motors. You can run a couple of servos directly off it I think (without adding an extra power supply). Well I've done that and it didn't go up in smoke.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I have one of the ArtEngine arduinos installed on a Community Drawbot that I made. So people can try their hand at moving some stepper motors and making a picture. <a href="http://mambohead.com/category/drawbot-2/">http://mambohead.com/category/drawbot-2/</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>I've already got another drawbot running. Baby drawbot very small and can be toted around. So I can do a meetup anytime for some arduino hacking with the drawbot. I'm just installing a limit switch on it so it can calibrate itself.</div>
