Has our beloved creator (of the ArcDroid, I mean) given consideration to a tubing notcher add-on option for the ArcDroid? 'cause, I would buy one.

I totally Agree. Ive been resisting to open up my Arcdroid to see if the Marlin board has a 4th axis step driver slot or does the inner mechanism of the arcdroid some how use 4 steppers motors to function. It seems like only 3. Also something along the lines of the DIY plasma tuber notcher would be ideal!

That tubing notcher is pretty slick.
Droid is three axis. Need two servos going to make a straight line…… so can’t quite do what the video is doing.
Sure would be a neat piece of kit for the Droid. Sign me up!
I can neither confirm nor deny that this may or may not be in development

ohhhh love it. . . or a rotary head / chuck bit of kit- 1000 times more so if sq tube capable and self centering. i would have near endless uses for it.
Heck even a totally new product- since an “affordable” hobbyist/very small shop solution seems to be unavailable. LDR motion systems i think sold their company but i had been following there full-scale self-centering tubing notcher as kind of a lotto win type of dream. drool.
