Great with the svg player and next draw

Having the output already setup for the next draw svg player is nice. Theres room for improvement with the eraser but overall a great app so far

Amazing For Pen Plotters!

Simple to use, but with all the features you need to hand draw designs for use on pen plotters. Really fun and intuitive to use.

The pen plotter artist’s sketchbook

The iPadOS ecosystem is not particularly good about editing SVGs and retaining the vector information - and this new drawing app is a way to capture the individual strokes of the pen from a manual artist. The key difference here is retaining the order of when the strokes are put down, because these translate into instructions for the drawing machines that can replicate the motions over and over again. It’s a distinct niche and for that, it works well. It’s responsive, and works well with the Apple Pencil. It does not mimic artist tools; strokes are tool paths. Editing prior strokes is still rudimentary - there’s just an eraser tool, and it is a little finicky to use, particularly when an area has overlapping strokes. But it’s a unique tool which will output SVGs for use on desktop editing environments; unfortunately, the Bantam Tools drawing machines cannot be controlled from the iPad directly yet.

Great for making vectors for my plotter

I needed a quick way to quickly sketch line aer to use with my NextDraw plotter.

This app is great for working up an idea and then sending it over to my machine to make real!
