The Original Egg-Bot kit
is the product of many years of evolution, dating back to the first Eggbot,
developed by motion control artist Bruce Shapiro in 1990. The present kit was developed by Evil
Mad Scientist Laboratories in cooperation with Bruce Shapiro, Ben Trombley, and Brian Schmalz.
This kit is designed to allow you to draw on spherical & egg-shaped objects from about
1.5-4.25” (4-10 cm) in diameter. Internet access, simple tools, and a recent-generation computer
(Mac/Win/Linux) with a USB port are required.
This assembly guide covers the procedures for putting together your Eggbot Kit. Typical assembly
time is estimated to be 1-2 hours. Please exercise appropriate care when building it: The kit
contains many small parts and some parts that could be sharp. Keep out of reach of small children.
Older children and teens may require adult assistance.
