WorkBee CNC build - My honest opinion, tips and help

Build in 'Cartesian Style CNC' published by T4Concepts, Sep 14, 2018.

My main goal for my build is to have a machine that is capable of profiling and help me in my designs, for the manufacture of custom automotive headlights.

        Apologies crnrstndes I've just seen this post ! ...... and yes, you're right, good video. I've seen quite a lot of Charley Thomas' videos, and I will go through a proper calibration of my workbee. Many thanks for the tip. TURK

        Hi again, I did notice something in your GRBL settings that you might want to explore. When I set up my C-Beam I noticed the parts I was cutting were larger than designed. I found this video on how to calibrate the machine properly and now everything is spot on. Have a look!

        Thanks mate. Yes indeed, superb design and so easy to assemble that a total nugget like me can assemble one ! Making it sing and dance should be interesting ! TURK
