I wonder why we don't see slow-but-actually-works approaches that reuse 3d-printer hardware

just put a pen or sharpie on the same mechanism, no?

This is called a 'plotter', there's a whole community of axi-draw enthusiasts making cool art, for 200 bones you can probably have one on your doorstep tomorrow

And it's been a thing wayyyyyy before 3D printers were even a twinkle in some engineers eye
