The e-stop is there for when something catastrophic is happening. At that point, the project is most likely ruined. You could pause the controller...
That looks great. Can't wait to see it cutting.
Now I need to try a down-cut. :)
...and now I have to order the 510 Enclosure. At a 27" wide tabletop it was destiny. I wanted 28" but the doorknob hole prevented that. [ATTACH]...
I also painted all of the plates. I had thought of anodizing, but I have never done it and I was lazy. I was sticking to a theme I came up with...
Wow. I drilled too many holes. I have one 12mm screw left. I can not think of needing any more, but... [ATTACH]
1) Benefits are many if you are using Estlcam to produce the gcode. You would eliminate the need to save the .nc file for other software. I...
Great minds think a like. I was just going to suggest that but you beat me to it. To avoid rough cutting, just buy the vehicle you want, let...
If you chose Acro as your machine (I assume you did since we are in the laser section of the forum), the z axis is disabled because the standard...
@Brian reklame try and slow the plunge rate down a bit especially in denser materials. I noticed when cutting aluminum, the smaller (3.175mm) end...
The downcut bits work, and so do straight flute type in my experience. I use the straight flute because they also work well cutting the plastic...
I do not know. I just started playing with OpenBuilds Control with my new lathe build. I use something else for my CNC router build.
Weird. 1 mm equals .04 ( actually .03937) inches. Are your settings right and saved before restarting? Let me go out and play with mine to see...
The LEAD 1010 will work great. I use Flatcam for generating the g-Code and Estlcam for the surface probing prior to milling. Estlcam is not...
How small of circles? Are they being cut out, or drilled out? If you are drilling (or helical drilling) and your plunge rate is too fast, the z...
Believe me I want it done too. I did find a way to move the tail stock. I had some scraps of 2040 leftover from my original CNC build. I don't...
Thanks. I made a few more plates today. I wanted to beef up the braces so I designed some new angled plates. I also wanted to try engraving on...
These are what I purchased. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072C4KCQH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 @Rick 2.0 - I had to...
Calibration should be both positive and negative. So, when calibrating, you command it to go as far as you can so the error has more chance of...
Thanks. It will be easier for me to stick with the IOT switch, both price wise and for the ease of availability. The fact I know it works helps as...
