I am in the I like to cut group. I tried the built in drivers and grbl at first. It did not perform like I wanted it to. I got the individual...
Someone commented on this on the facebook page "I'd be moving those drivers further apart with individual fans for each as they're going to get...
Got some work done on the control box. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
You might try putting some tension on the lead screw.
2 anti backlash nuts will make it too tight. Either one anti backlash nut or 2 regular ones. I learned the hard way.
that looks really good.
That is cool. I have my basic frame put together. I don't want to take it apart. I will get some more lock collars. I use the new collars to put...
My first build I went with LinuxCNC and a simple C10 breakout board. This was after I got tired of messing with a board that had built in drivers....
LinuxCNC and Mesa is cheaper than Mach 3. I was just giving him more options to choose from. Grbl isn't that great. The universal gcode sender...
The plates are expensive. It is nice to buy them and know they are right. All the parts are expensive. You can just buy some parts as you have the...

What size spindle are you using?
I like this for 5v. You can connect it to your 36v power supply Module Voltage Regulator Step-Down Converter 4.0~40 To 1.3-37V Power Module |...
What spindle did you use? I am looking at spindles for my next build. Considering a 800w water cooled.
Sounds like a good plan. I took the easy way out. I am building a 1M x 1M. Once I get my frame together. I will take some pics and start a build.
