I made a thing using Shaper's router. It is now holding some of our papers.

META! A paper about the paper holder maker:

The tape on the sides of the plywood are what Shaper uses to see the wood. You stick the tape on, and scan it with Shaper. Shaper uses CV to keep track of the router's position.

(It can drill down a variable depth, too. It's like a handheld cnc mill.)

P.S. Tomorrow I'm going to spend the morning reading on the BART. That is, getting on the BART and traveling to the ends of the lines while reading, and then traveling back. You can join me if you want to.
