Hi Jon. I was wondering if you had any pics of your machine yet? A few pics might answer some minor questions that I have. Thanks again for a...
Hi Gang! I normally have a pretty good idea what I'm going to build before I ever pick up a tool, but this time I'd really like to ask our...
Hi Colin. Any word about when I could purchase some of the M8 eccentrics? I have a build that is in the planning stage that can benifit from...
Try swapping steppers. See if this stepper works in place of one that functions correctly. Then plug a stepper that is working ok in place of the...
What is the voltage you are supplying to the stepper motors?
With a normal (sorry Keteland :) ) ramps system adjusting the driver current would be correct, but with the Leadshine driver I believe you will...

Yes Val, blocks CAN be removed....That's as far as I'm going. :) Steve & Val, guys, what about using the heat mat glued to glass and then...
The grin on my face when that semi-truck pulled up is still on my face. It might last a loooong time too.
Spoken like a man with great wisdom OR one who's built a airplane in their basement. Don't ask me how I know, I don't want to lie. :) Larry
