Or use large bearings like the truck bed slides. I have a bed slide that basically has the bed sitting on angle iron. The base is essentially an...
The Openbuilds Delrin (Black) v-wheels are 23.9mm in diameter. A quick look at Amazon and all the black Delrin wheels sold for 3D printers are...
I can verify that the Cbeams purchased from OpenBuilds that are in my shop do indeed fit beautifully. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
That is how I am doing mine and so far it works great. If you are using the antibacklash nuts, one is fine. I used an antibacklash for my z and...
That is precisely the reason I purchased one of the older OpenBuilds round touch plates. I plan to eventually install it permanently off to the...
I was thinking of doing something similar with a small open bed cargo trailer. I was going to mimic how Bedslide or one of the other truck bed...
You could try to use them and use the Linear Rail - OpenRailĀ® Linear Rail - OpenBuilds Part Store on them, but that costs nearly as much as just...
Great build. Interesting the Langmuir Crossfire deserved to be tossed back in the dumpster. I have seen youtube videos regarding them, but I do...
You are probably right. I guess we would have found out if I was wrong 8.333 hours after the first attempt. :) I have never messed with the G4. I...
That may be to much for one of the onboard drivers on the Blackbox.
I have only found one online retailer that sells both male and female at a reasonable price. You get both pieces (male and Female) for the price...

Just a quick check to be sure and I found GRBL does support the G4. gnea/grbl
Maybe a G04 P(time in milliseconds I think) command after each move? So, unless I am wrong about the milliseconds, you may need a G4 P30000. I am...
He may not have understood that you had 5 motors. 2 for Y and 2 for Z. What amperage are your Z motors?
You may have to wire your Z in parallel (two wired to the Z). The Y carries the most weight so I would use two separate drivers for that as per...
SOMETHING BIG IS COMING!! This is awesome! I will assume that since I guessed right, I won one. You already have my shipping address. ;)
Yup. And it really is not much in the way of components. It is relatively cheap until you factor in the rotary axis. ;) I think it cost as much...
The half of that connection you can't find is where the magic happens. The dimensions are found in the Xtension Connector Sets link and they are...
Or you can do what I did. Count up all your parts, figure out what you need to build a LEAD style machine with the existing parts plus new Cbeams...
