Read more about this build...

 

aim is to make few of my 3d printed figures in wood (not a big fan of pla)
HC.Carbo

 

was missing 1 driver, most of the pic's online where for 2 stepper in the opposite direction.

this was working for me


have 6 drivers now, but was running into another issue...homing

 

he he 242
grts from Belgium....but you know...it never stop's

 

hope to cut these
ok nothing beats the steel ones... but way to expensive.
only suited for DM fans

 

ok, reality check today.

cool, everything works well & smooth
but,
not a good idea to place the a/b table in the length (not practical, you can't see what is going on)

So, seems i have to modify a little. The table don't fit in the other direction (need+ 2cm more in the y)

 

much better now & a/b table is also fixed on the sides (1 min. to remove )
z=15cm (still have 8cm left on the gantry)

 

yeah...it cut's allu....to say it cut a part out of my A/B table

reality check 2,

Hardware wise everything ok (hence static electricity seems to be an issue)

software, mmm setup vertical no go > it cut's only 2 sides (guess the post is for horizontal) but easy to work around.

3 attempts to make a video today, but... my gopro crashed & then my laptop crashed & @ a last attempt my A table seems to turn the wrong side..

multi axis: mmm not sure, seems it doesn't work on spherical shapes...

here my test setup, little dog cut out of a champagne cork

video next week...hopefully

Cheers!

 

after 4 attempts...you can see +- a dog
rough adaptive, **** hard to zero all on the right spot. (y a little off)
done in one run

 

bang my head...just cut out the Austere Bunny, but it went wrong at the last cut. (z gantry touched the a table) grrr
Learn every week a little more
just have to set the b 45°

 

Little late, (no it wasn't the machine)

indexing a bunny
few flaws, but the ears are still on it

 

3mm mill (Chinese ) , soft mat. good for testing. (2 little flaws in the toolpath)
still have to order some descent mills
(avoid to do a tool change, often it loose connection when touching the machine)

 

Have already a soundtrack for it...now the footage

 

Finally some wood, but... things went wrong

@ other hand, seems the simultaneous multi axis is working fine now.

Wanted to redo the flow (& cut some more stock of)
when i started @ the same (new) g-code line it went wrong somehow
aim is to cut the OB logo out of it

 

only multi-axis flow (1 direction) & contour
Sadly my center point little off
But toolpath is good, so hopefully a nice keychain next week

 

Peace out
Finally something, flow on both sides.
gives a nice round shape on both sides.
