    Can any one please help me.........................
    I built a 1515 cnc workbee and have the black box so i'm using openbuilds software. I use vcave pro for making pockets and pocking holes say like a 1/2" hole. But the half inch hole never comes out to be a 1/2"
    My question is does any one have a 1515 workbee and do i have to properly configure the grbl setings in openbuilds? if so can you tell me what the settings need to be at.
    Thank You;
    Dan

    OpenBuilds CONTROL > Connect > Click Wizards and Tools > Go to calibration. Repeat for each axis:

    We don't have a Workbee 1515: Machine Bundles - OpenBuilds Part Store

    So you may want to start with the Workbee 1510 profile and then adjust whatever parameters are needed, to adapt the profile to what your vendor did differently from the official bundles
    The Grbl Wiki will be a must-read for a non standard machine like this: See gnea/grbl
