It probably doesn't matter what you use. I don't have access to anything that can cut steel and garolite is expensive here so aluminum is my choice.
Yeah well sketchy doesn't run on my machine so it's a moot point for me. I found way better tools anyway. The only problem I have is converting...
Dude, I have the same motors and mine can produce enough force to bend the gantry, strip the belts, etc. I had a nightmare cutting aluminum...
I have no idea... The spec sheet says -1 to 2 V and nothing about the resistance... ***? Maybe you can make sense of it...
Yes. You can download the datasheet for L298N and it will tell you which pin is the current sense(pins 1 and 15) and what to set the resistance...
The max rating of your power supply means it will overheat if you draw more current than that. Try it out but keep an eye on the heat. Also, I...
Belting is accurate as it gets and works for almost everything from foam to aluminum. When we start talking about rack and pinion is when we are...
I hijacked the thread, sorry. Might be better to start a whole new thread but that's a ways off for me.
I'd stick with the hand-crank so I don't need electricity in the forest.
Check this out... [media] You could put one rail running the length of the machine and build the rest out of 8020. I bet you could throw it...
I'm curious as to whether these parts have to be 3D printed or if they can be cnc machined?
You can run one bipolar stepper off an L298N. You can control/limit the current by changing the resistor on the current sense pin. This will...
I exported the files from sketchup to obj format(I think) and then imported into Blender. From there you can get IGES, STEP, STL, VRML, dxf, dwg,...
It's probably vegetable oil <snicker>
Dude you can't run a motor with 2 coils on one coil or it will stall, miss steps, jerk, grind, vibrate, etc.
When I was a kid, there was this new Spiderman comic book that was released. Some rich guy bought out the whole inventory to create artificial...
What's the proper bit?
My NEMA 17's take 2.8A at 12V. I tried lower voltages and currents but the motors wouldn't move sometimes or they were seriously weak. I'd like to...
I figured out the y-axis play issue. It turns out that the gantry plates don't line up the screws perfectly and there's just enough room for them...
what is the parts store sold out again?
