Well, after closer examination it looks like I have figured out why my Z-axis was way too loose. I had to take the Z assembly mostly off , which...
Yap ... tweaking the design so everything (or as much as possible) can be done from the outside (facing out) is a definte must. The only place...
Drying my tears, I had one more look before heading off to work ... It may just be that some of the wheels on my Z are not tight enough (just...
In bit of reading prior to starting building myOX I read that using the 20x60 would be better. Like the wide stance of rally cars. Come to think...
I thought about that, but it involves taking the Z assembly off to access the screw heads. So I am kind of hoping for some fairy dust magic...
Well I do have a problem, two in fact, before I can "finish" myOX. Remember way back at the beginning of this build I mentioned having problems...
I''m using an older MacBook (a mid-2010 rebuilt) with GrblController software and the CNC xPro. The Arduino with shield was just not working out...
Thanks. And to think I eyeballed most of it too ... me and both of my nearly blind eyes ! First attempt was just off by too much, second attempt...
Yes ... sort of. I'm just worried about the other possibility of flexing : weight of router and forces working against it and the long X axis....
Yes ! myOX is ...almost... ready to generate piles upon piles of wood chips ... and, of course, work of arts ! :cool::) Here's some long awaited...
I'm back. Been kind of staying away from the computer to work on myOX and have it ready for chip making between work, wife, life, ... not...
I will be adding pictures and other details now that MyOX is almost ready to come to life. It's been and it continues to be a great learning...
Well, I ended going to work ... bad idea, but bills have to get paid somehow.
It worked right out of the box ! I pulled the Arduino/CNCshield out and dropped in the xPRO. I connected one stepper directly while an other...
Well, I think I finally caught up to the wife's ever growing to do list and, best of all, I recently received the CNC xPRO controller board...
I received my populated xPRO yesterday (well, picked it up yesterday while it came in a day or so earlier). It is about to go into the myOX build...
Shipping, duties, etc. across the border can be ... tough. Kind of takes the "free" out of "Free Trade", eh ? If you are not in a rush, wait the...
You might want to check at ProtoDrake, they had the 20x60 real early this and they have a few choices for the controller as well. They are on...
Sweet ! I was thinking of doing something similar, but this will be much easier ... once I get my Micro 3D Printer (hoping it does the small...
This simple looks interesting. However, if I read correctly, the speed can't really be controlled with the Arduino/gShield setup because of the...
