Got ambitious for my first plots...!

Hello all. I have recently gotten into pen plotting, and started with an iDraw A1, and I'm loving it so far. I come from woodworking and I worked with CNC routers, so I had an idea where I was going to land. I was skeptical at first about the rigidity of the rails, but I realized soon enough that we're not dealing with 3/4" thick birch plywood and router bits here. Just gentle pens and papers (oh so smooth 300 series).

For now, my inspiration is directed into topographic stuff, as I also worked in geomatic with drones. My workflow: I have access to the government Digital Elevation Model (Québec gov), from which I convert in STL in QGIS. I then trace it in perspective in blender. I'm also learning those softwares as I go.

Anyway, let me know what you think :)

I'm heavily upvoting stuff here but never contributed, so hello and thank you!
