Klipper controlled cam slider programmed in Blender: From animation to reality!

This project which should have started simple ended up in a Klipper controlled camera slider which is programmed with Blender. The possibilities this enables is insane if you think about it! You can program a robotic arm by animating it in Blender if you want to. In this video I use Huvud boards https://github.com/bondus/KlipperToolboard/ but it's also possible to use a regular 3D printer controller. You also don't need Klipper, but I wanted to learn how to use this firmware and by using it in a custom way like this I was able to really learn from it by stumbling on several uncommon issues. This ain't no 3D printer xD
