Good call. I thought there was extrusion hidden inside the sheet metal. Kinda confused now. Those gantry plates are also looking about a third to...
I have a very similar machine idea floating around in my head. A little larger X/Z travels, but same setup and modularity/upgradability. The great...
If you're using a built-in parallel port, makes me wonder if it's a weird driver/buffering/whatever internal issue to the computer. I don't think,...
Interesting. Fusion doesn't seem super great at v-carve-bit type jobs, which is why I ask. Something to bear in mind for future reference. Yep,...
Enthusiastic bCNC user here. :D Is there actually any inherent advantage to VCarve? The product page makes it look pretty much like a very...
Yep. I used to do AI->F360 all the time. It's a really simple system once you set up the DXF export settings right, which as I recall took a while...
^All of the above. I've been dealing with EMI issues for a few weeks, it's no fun. Upside though, there's a lot of fairly inexpensive shielded...
Any inexpensive Chinese spindle can be reversed full power with an M4 command, it's part of the inherent advantage of 3-phase, not having to deal...
Not quite sure what you need help with. The system would be, within the Arduino, "when I receive this byte command over serial, pulse pin X one...
Oh, is that why you guys built CONTROL? I noticed you weren't pushing Grbl Panel like you used to, but I thought that was because you built your...
Yeah I thought it would be odd if it significantly diverged from stock, because it'd make troubleshooting unnecessarily more complex. I have no...
Sounds similar to how I worked before I had working limit switches on there. Since the controller would always wake up at 0,0,0, you could take...
Hmmm... Haven't seen anything significantly change on my end in bCNC, but I also never saw any kind of option to "not use G54", even in previous...
The only reason to be concerned would be if it didn't do this: ...But even if it didn't and your 0,0 was off, shifted over by 1/2 bit diameter,...
I haven't figured out what probing technology I'm gonna use for a future gantry-style machine, I may just build a Renishaw-style probe... Only...
Whilst it's good that it's clear everything is working, unfortunately this is where it delves into making digital CMOS logic circuits talk to each...
Am I missing something here? There's no reason to probe again to change tools, except to do a G38.2-G43.1 tool length probe if you don't pre-set...
Huh. I guess Duolingo is working, because I actually understood about 50% or so of that! Necessitas usar Google Translate, porque mi Espanol no es...
This was my reaction too, fwiw. I think as long as they think the programming is "closed to them" in any way, you have problems. CNC isn't easy,...
And fwiw, if it were me, I'd replace "G53 G0 Z10" with "G53 G0 Z0" or "G28 G91 Z0 G90" Both of which achieve the same result in this case,...
