Nice Alex! Those rotaries are addictive. I troll thingiverse looking for suitable models
shouldn't the grbl settings be the same no matter what grbl controller you are using? My steps/mm etc are the same whether I am using Estlcam...
Estlcam works well for me too. Like Gary, it opened up for me and I had no issue creating tool paths. Estlcam was well worth the $59 license (You...
I prefer the "manual" speed control. You can tell a lot about how the machine is cutting by the sound it is making. If it sounds "off" you can...
That is cool. I may have a couple questions when I hook mine up.
Have you calibrated the X,Y, and Z axis? There is a calibration wizard in Ope builds Control. I like to use as long of a measuring stick as I can.
What are your $30, 31, and 32 values? I believe you need these, but I am unfamiliar with lightburn:
Once you get everything tight and calibrated, I would do roughing passes first, leaving 0.2 or 0.3 mm to be removed during a full depth finishing...

It should be easy to implement on a LEAD with a high Z mod. Then add a rotary axis under either the x or y axis. You would have to use the plug...
The K40 uses mirrors and so will my upgraded version when I get around to building it.
That is what I did. I realized I could get a 40 watt K40 for the price of a good quality laser diode. If I were to do it again, I would build a...
Search "laser module" on Amazon. I have no idea of the quality, but those are other options. Lots of them will be called 30 watt, but that is not...
There are lots available, but quality can be hit or miss which is why the good ones are recommended. They are easier to troubleshoot. A business...
I would read through the documentation to be sure it is all connected properly. Then continue on here with the documentation. It tells you how to...
Homing, hard and soft limits. I would read the entire GRBL wiki if I were you. It will save you frustration and headaches. Here is the section...
