Help identifying cnc axis system
I'm using LaserWeb4 on the Pi, which can do milling and laser G-code generation and machine operations.
- Was hoping for a a Pinned FAQ for beginners!

Add 4th axis (rotation along the Z axis) on a GRBL CNC
If you use Arduino Mega, you could control up to 6 axis as i know: https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X

I've made a fifthaxis! it is hobby-sized
For a 5 axis firmware I'm using this https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X it's based on GRBL-Mega and it plays super nice on a Ramps shield (super cheap and easy to find).

can i control arduino outputs on a GRBL mega?like to manually code an ATC,or to switch few solenoids
Try this version: https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X

Grbl on Creality 8Bit Board
You could use https://github.com/gnea/grbl-Mega or https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X And you need to know the pin usage of your board, to setup the config.h file

Added 4th axis to my Arduino powered CNC mill
If your are using grbl, this repo might be of interest. Haven't used it but it seems popular enough for a 5 axis grbl firmware. https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X

Pen plotter
Probably yes, it seems to use a Mega 2560, so you could use https://github.com/gnea/grbl-Mega or https://github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X
What are some alternatives?
When comparing LaserWeb4 and grbl-Mega-5X you can also consider the following projects:
