Haha, I totally get that. Once I'm actually building my machine (couple weeks, maybe?) and I'm looking harder at the limits and coordinate spaces...
Seems like there should be a Wiki page specifically on configuring a machine for permanent use in imperial measurements. Absolutely, I ran into...
This makes a lot of sense. Not having a complete machine and not yet testing limit switches, I haven't run into this yet, but I'll certainly try...
Eww, imperial. Why'd ya wanna do that?! :p I only started looking at grbl a few days ago, but... $N0=G20 should work. Have you also tried...
Cross-platform grbl interfaces (bCNC, UGCS...) will run on a RasPi 3 without too much issue, from what I've seen. CAM features may lead to...
Is it possible to have the option to leave single axes powered? Like for a z-axis leadscrew, it probably needs to stay powered in order to stop...
Should've been right there when you downloaded it: Configuring Grbl v0.9 · grbl/grbl Wiki · GitHub (assuming you're using v0.9)
I have an OB NEMA 17, I honestly couldn't make much of the online spec sheet re: the windings (though that could be my own failure to generally...
I think I've had that issue (noisy cogging/windings, no motion) when I've had the leads from the driver to the motor ordered incorrectly? Check...
That's exactly it. Imagine the wildly variable quality available at Poundland, then make it a tool store with similar suppliers, with compressors,...
Spotted this flash on screen in passing whilst catching up on Arrow Season 3. There in the bottom right: [ATTACH] Can't tell if the unit is...
If your machinist friend is also a fabricator, I'd have him rustle up some kind of lightweight, triangulated truss gantry, from which you can...
I think a simple belt-drive for the z axis- two opposing corners attached to timing belt, which come down one outside face to a crankshaft- this...
I believe so. That's not a hugely heavy combination. Should be ok. I've never seen a pre-built bracket with NEMA 17 mounting pattern, but that...
Nope, precisely what I said: drill and tap the plate for 1/4"-20, then drill 3mm (or whatever) mounting holes in it to bolt to the rail with...
You'll need to drill and tap an aluminum plate to 1/4"-20, and attach it to the rail. If you have a drill press, using a scrap of 1/2" aluminum...
Just saw this on Twitter, looks pretty cool. I do like it when people don't just build OXes and i3s. :P If it's possible to make V-Slot hold less...
