A quick Christmas project. I saw this on Vectric’s website, and sadly like so many of their projects, the files were for Aspire owners only....
I would move the X axis switch to the right. I believe the Openbuilds postprocessor requires homing and also for the machine to be working within...
At 8 inches, there may not have been much of an error to see visually. It is also way too short of a distance for calibration. In that short of...
A V bit would be best using Vectric's Vcarve that you mentioned you have.
Sorry for the late reply. In your Vcarve tool path. click on the "use clearance tool" box. [ATTACH] Here is a video from Vectric describing the...
Are you doing an actual V carve tool path? Or pocketing with a V bit? What software are you using? You are clearing material with a pointy end...
Yup. Has to be hooked up. I keep an arduino board near my computer in the house just to plug it in so I can see the settings if I am helping...
At one time I thought about building a router sort of like the Lowrider that would handle 4X8 Sheets. I was just going to use off the shelf plates...

Try to save it as a R14 polyline DXF if solidworks provides that option. Open Vectors
This is the Ebay Store that has provided many Ox builders with taller plates. These are 11 inches tall. He could probably do Custom ones for you....
Have you tried contacting Makerbase customer support? I would hope they would be able to help you out if they are a reputable company.
I have one sitting in a box waiting for me to build a machine for it. I was thinking it would be a good match with an upgraded K40 CO2 laser.
The ones that have ball bearings are "ball screws" and no company's Delrin (or the knock-offs made of inferior plastics) nut blocks will work on a...
The Blackbox has its own internal drivers. Are you trying to hook external (DM556) drivers to it? The extrenal drivers are unnecessary. Just hook...
