The engraver is pretty neat-- it can make, for example, etched glass christmas ornaments. Here's one that we made at MakerFaire Detroit: [1]http://www.flickr.com/photos/lenore-m/4856324866/in/photostream/ The photo shows a dull-silver-painted glass ornament, engraved down to etched glass, and lit from within by a multicolor LED. I'm not sure that it's precise enough for trophies, but I bet there will be a lot of ornaments sent to gramma. :)
So, if the engraver vibration is too fuzzy, how about adding force feedback control and a rotary tool? The force feedback would let you hold up the weight of the rotary tool, and probably help pickup and touch down at the same spots too. Does the eibot board have some spare inputs for feedback?
