Several of the stores, like AliExpress, Banggood, Lighttake, and Gearbest I have heard of. And out of the 4 only lighttake have I had an issue with.
TomTop, geekbuying, tradingshenzhen…are new to me.
Why You Should Buy Your Tech From China (And How to Do It Safely)
OK Igot a kick out of this one. Neat build, but not so sure I would do it unless I had to do alot of slicing.
Nice idea, the author needed something that could do high (100V) voltage but with a low current. I am pretty impressed he did this with a battery no less.
I like this build over ones from years past, looks like $100 in materials? Its come a long way and now it does not even need an arduino to control the motors, instead everything goes thru a RPi Zero.
Use one of those giant rubber erasers from the dollar store. Good idea but I would like to see a better way to get it to hold into the vise.

OK if you can sharpen something on a grinder it is way more faster than by hand. But…you can screw things up faster too. The author made a nice and simple jig to use with a tabletop grinder to do the job.

Good way to teach kids motors using some cheap materials.
This is pretty cool build, the author uses garbage bags but apparently you can get a kit now these days to do it. Me…I think I would buy the kit.

I like this build, the author with 2 steppers, an RPi, build this to draw pictures on an etch-a-sketch, could be a good way to into for kids into CNC or robotics.
Cool build.
