very excited! So, couple things I can't seem to find Written manual? - videos on Youtube are WICKED detailed, but not great resource out in the garage on my tiny phone screen. will deal if I have too but if there is written docs I can print that would be WAY better! Hooking up a spindle? not a big deal at the moment, will be using a Dewalt (I have a 611 already) but later plan on getting a proper spindle. I got the BlackBox which came highly recommended but my Pro friends but cant find info to hook it up? was hoping the blackbox would be the speed controller for it? I'll likely be live streaming the build, and also edit on youtube and twitch if anyone is interested. Not sure your policy of posting links and such? so friggin can't wait to get moving with this thing!
Congrats! There's no machine build docs, just the videos. VFD hookup is in the blackbox docs: docs:blackbox:connect-vfd [OpenBuilds Documentation]
well that's a bummer, but - I will push thru!! thanks for the hook up info, will check it out in a bit!
start [OpenBuilds Documentation] - rest on videos only (building a complicated machine along to the video is best to grab all the tips and tricks) See docs:blackbox:connect-vfd [OpenBuilds Documentation] The Dewalt does not accept speed control signals, you can however turn it on and off with the BlackBox: See docs:blackbox:connect-dewalt-iotrelay [OpenBuilds Documentation] You're rarely adjusting a Dewalt off setting 2-3 anyway - you can always vary chipload by changing feedrate in CAM or live with the Override slider Have a read through Terms of Service and Rules | OpenBuilds
LOL, read the terms of service, kinda general, doesn't really state anything about video/youtube linking and such. No biggy.
Its generic, but the important take away is "don't spam" - sharing videos is good. Sharing videos just to promote your channel, and not being a part of the community otherwise, etc may be seen as abusing the forum a little. Mostly common sense stuff. Instead of just sharing your video, make a Build and post your video in there. If you want to make videos of making stuff, post it in the Projects section above with the files and instructions so people can replicate. Existing builds and projects should guide you through whats the game
So, going to live stream some of the beginning sorting and maybe a gantry assembly or 2 if anyone is interested- youtube - Twitch - Twitch
