Really nice mini pen plotter,I built basically the same using arduino running GRBL...find a pic,convert to black and white,convert to dfx,on to fengrave and plot...you did a real nice job

The l293D can control two Motors at the same time. Why didn't use one for both?

I have used A4988 driver chip with CNC Shield V3 for this project.

How hot are your steppers?

The mini stepper motors which can be extracted from DVD writer or CD writer are usually has the voltage limits of 3V to 9V and 1 amp to 1.5 amp. I have used simple usb connected to my computer as a power supply as one can use the vcc and gnd of usb. So the stepper motors are running ok. There is no issues of temperature but if some one use the 12v power supply then those motors will be getting hotter. In that case we have to adjust the potentiometer on the A4988 driver to limit the current flow.
