I know this thread is a little old - but I'm wondering if you know how the gplot is handled on mac. I see the "plot gcode" choice in the extension...
Thanks so much for the reply! You know, I just tried that in the TinyG software to test it out (polarity reverse - thanks Davey!). Now the...
Hey gang. Quick question as I circle ever-closer to actually getting this thing to cut something other than air... After a few tests, I think I...
Yep. That's a great resource. Actually, if you visit that page - he has several useful tips & tricks in the drop down menu.
I ended up with the tinyG. I've been able to get the thing connected and operating using mac. Cool term and universal GC Sender work. Ironically...
UPDATE: Just ran the positive and negative directly to the 24v power supply, and it spun up beautifully. Then I disconnected the yellow signal...
Thanks David, but it was just an expression. That's why it was in quotes. :). I guess what I should have said is, I'm not in any hurry to ignore...
Yes and yes. 24v power supply and the jumper is on the Vmot side. Unfortunately I don't have another fan here to test on the board. Tomorrow I...
Hey folks. Getting ready to fire up the tinyG on he OpenBuilds plate machine for the initial communications testing. Quick question. I have a...
Ah. Thanks Davey. I didn't realize that it had both. I haven't gone through it much after download. Just to see that design you sent. I'll check...
That was a MUCH better explanation than mine :) I should add that I had always considered using the acme screw/C-Beam with the Ox build if that's...

Hey james. Just a couple weeks ago I was in the same position as you are - trying to decide between the Ox-based build and the C-Beam plate maker....
im wondering what settings people are using for their CNC mills. I have recently begun the C-Beam plate machine and plan to work with aluminum and...
Thanks for the encouragement @Mark Carew I'm confident in the 'taking it slow and shallow' part of it - I'm used to hand turning/milling. No...
Thanks folks. Couple more things and then it's time for learning the controller and software. Not sure how that will go - seems a lot more...
I moved ahead just so I could double check all he parts, and see if I needed anything. I know I'll have to take this back apart - but it was a...
Thanks so much @Mark Carew !!! Believe me, if I had to piece all those parts together for a bundle - no one would ever get anything built! :)
Thanks @Mark Carew. If you check the email at the OpenBuilds parts store you'll see I need a few missing things. Also, turns out one of the flex...
Great stuff. Thanks for all the Mac compatible software tips. TinyG arrived today. Need a few things from mark to finish off the build and I'll...
