One bit of clarification. LaserWeb also generates the G-code for burning - I'm guessing the 2 you listed do as well. (I use Fusion360 to...
Both of those appear to be G-code senders (and both appear to be compatible with controllers running grbl firmware). I've not tried either one....
You shouldn't be able to turn a motor when powered up and idle. I think check your wiring connections on the "free" motor (maybe test it alone)....
You might have an unsupported "tool change" command in your G-code. There is a brief discussion here: UGS G-Code Operation Grbl does not support...
Did you download grbl-Panel here?: gerritv/Grbl-Panel If not, download the GrblPanel-Release-1.0.9.17.zip file and unzip it. The executable is...
If you go with the individual drivers, you can use your Arduino Nano (if it will unplug from your board) and one of these ($5.99 on Amazon):...
It won't be exactly the same. I do not use PWM speed control for the Makita, so I just leave the cord connection for PWM control of my laser...
It depends some on what spindle you are using. I am using a Makita router mounted in an OpenBuilds spindle mount. I cut out a plate to mount my...
I guess it's called LaserWeb4 now. Here are some test pieces I did for Christmas presents last year (using LaserWeb4 and a 2.3W laser). Note: you...
Somewhere you need an M3 or M4 command and an Sxxxx command (S1000 sets the laser to full power). You can see info on GRBLs laser mode here:...
Awesome Man!
Ah, yes! Independence (from British "football") day...;):D:D
I would say yes, clamp the frame to the table and try it again and report back. You might also try to burn some circles and squares and check for...
I'm refinishing my kitchen cabinets and decided to replace the antique hinges with hidden, self-closing knife hinges. A partial dado slot has to...
Welcome Joshua, and congratulations on the build. I read about your issue. You probably need to adjust the pots (set Vref) on your DRV8825...
When you command a move in the X+ direction, the gantry should move to the left, in the Y+ direction the gantry should move toward you. +/- are...
Another advantage. You may have a design where you need to run some drive mechanism in the middle of a slot where wheels would be "in the way"....
You can focus the beam at a very low power setting. Looking through OD6, you may not even be able to see the dot though. I focused mine at very...
Wow Ira! Thanks for the valuable insight! You don't post often, but it was worth the wait. Hope to hear from you again in a couple more years....
