Mark...In your c-beam video you mentioned a 1/8 inch collet for the Bosch Colt...I have looked all over, and have had no luck finding one. Can you point me in the right direction, please? Thanks, Jack Clarke

But no Grbl 0.9i ['$' for help] showing its ready? It would be nice to show clips of what to do.

Hi Mark
I got a X-Pro driver board from you guys. Using Grbl Panel when I try to change the settings in the x,y,z stepper it won't save the settings. 1-2-3-etc clicks to save it to the board. Since I got no ideal what settings to use on the P3 printer. Some of the times it saves the new settings, but most of the times NO tied many times?? The same with the other settings.

I'd like to be able to route out on a full 4x8 sheet of drywall... anyone build a unit that big? if so, please contact me...thanks!

Mark,
I tried to upload my parts list to the "wish" list, ", it does not allow me to open it and add to my list.
Soooooooo........

Following is my parts list,

Hi I do see one of your post over ;
http://www.openbuilds.com/threads/strong-ox.914/page-11
about the v-wheel that was cracked. So do you recommend to go that route for a cnc or it will be better to just keep with the regular wheel running over a c -beam ?
thanks

Recently bought the c-beam kit. In my attempt to assemble it I discovered that one of my precision shims in the wheel kit is NOT a precision shim! How do I go about getting a replacement so I can continue my build?

Hi! I just assembled my new CBeam machine. I have the steppers wired to a Tinyg and now I think I'm reading there's no more TGFX? I actually have no idea what I'm doing, What I should be looking for as far as (a program to run the machine)? I would rather not run CHillipepper because I don't often have a reliable connection. I'm at the beginning. Could you please steer me in the direction of progress?

Hello I am a virgin in CNC builds and have one question of many on my first build, can I hook two steppers to one driver for my y axes? so what board would I need a 3 or 4 axes? All of this is getting a little over whelming for me.

Hello Mark, I would like to make or buy a cheap XY stage for my microscope. I have not played with stepper motor before. What is your suggestion? thank you

What is the advantage of having a 24 v power supply over 12v?

Thanks for your help!

I plan on buying the motors and power supply today. Can you send me replacement parts with that order?

Hi Mark! I just assembled the c beam kit and I had problems with some parts.
the spindle mount is not threaded properly for the screws and one of the lock collars has the same issue with the screw.

Mark this is all new. I found you on you tube with c-beam, great video and I know it took lots of work payed off you found me. I'm very hand on and mechanically inclined. This will be my first build and first set up to learn in and outs of CNC. My question is, can I build the c- beam cheaper if I piece it together with your parts store or just buy your bundle kit?

Mark - I see you provided parts list for SolidWorks. It didn't have the 8mm Acme Lead 1040mm and 540 mm screws. Wondering if you had them?

In your page for the OX you have instructions for a Spoiler board. In the instructions it talks about Hold Down clamps that will be available in the store. Have you added this item to the store yet? I did not see it when I was looking.

Mark, I am going to build a large C-Beam based CNC Router. I want to use a 750 mm X axis with a 1500 mm Y using 2 C Beam spaced 80 mm between the 2. I need help with the best way to locate the NEMA 23 motors. I would like to use an ACME on the Z with at least 6" of cutting height. I need help with this design and all the parts required .

Hi Mark: Is the (CNC xPro V2 Controller Stepper Driver) a good replacement for the electrics that came with the Plll?
Its still working ok but failer may be around the corner.
thanks bobada

Hi Mark,

I have a design I would like to have made, can I send it to you to see if you can have it made please?

Thanks

Hi Mark, Where do I get the OX Plates. I am in the final stages of my order and need to order the gantry plates

Hi Mark. I am looking to buy a CNC bundle and think that the OX fits my build size requirements the most. I was hoping for a build size of 2' x 3'. Do you have a parts list for the OX able to handle that build size? I really like the C Beam machine as well and wonder what is the largest size you seen one built. I am looking to mill Aluminum hopefully up to 1" thick.

Hi can you help me with a link to download the application"Mach3 Control" (apk) because the googleplay not find
thank you

Hi Mark
I'm very interested in buying "V-Slot™ Linear Actuator Bundle (Lead Screw)".
Do you have skp files or any other CAD of this bundle. I hope I can purchase it by this week.
Thanks!

Hey Mark...Do you know when the 1500mm 20X80 will be back in stock? I want to build a 2X4 machine, but may have to downsize as I am anxious to get things ordered and it looks like 1000mm is the longest in stock

Thanks
