A tribute to those before me…

One thing I’ve always admired is the creative ingenuity of people. Doubly so for those that go through the effort to post it for others to learn about their exploits as well. So in respect to all those before me that were gracious enough to share their knowledge with others. I will share with you, mine as well.

Things that got me started:

Dan Royer from marginallyclever.com has a really good sketch for Controlling your Arduino through the Serial Monitor.

Jeff Epler’s Etch-a-Sketch CNC his work inspired Colin Kingsbury.

Colin took Mr.Epler’s work, posted a Basic Arduino-EMC HOWTO simplified enough for a mere mortal like me to sorta understand it and begin poking at it with the proverbial stick.

Once I got enough confidence to put the pieces together Emc2Arduino was born. A few weeks later EMC changed its name to LinuxCNC but by that point I was already getting a few hits on the blog and github as people were beginning to use it. So I guess the name stuck ever since.
