Description
I wanted to add a rotary to my laser cutter and didn't want to pay for the one I found on cults (that stole work from thingiverse authors), so I started working on creating one myself. I still need to add the rollers.
UPDATE: added support arm, still needs work. Will need to change chuck mount to line up better.
Bill of Materials (BOM):

ROLLER BARS
NOTE: I haven't checked the order of the leads on the cable yet, I only started working on this, so I can't say if this will work.
