A picture of the controller would definitely help. All controllers I am familiar with would have the solution if unplugging both motors at the...
Switch one pair of wires of the four for each stepper and they will go the right direction, or refer to the grbl wiki. It will help answer most...
A couple people have converted their workbees to linear rails with these from Amazon. They are 15 mm but 12 mm are available as well. I bought...
Well, according to Opt Lasers, it can cut 3 mm plexiglass an 2 mm per second. But they only appear to claim that for red and green....
You will most likely need a CO2 laser for that. That will greatly complicate things. Read through some of the CO2 laser builds here to get some...
Are you absolutely sure your bit size is 6.35 mm? I have yet to meet one that is. If you found a source please tell us. ;) But seriously,...
I am familiar with Shawn's build having done it and Jacob's build, as well. They link their various parts sources. You will need new...
The motor current referred to by David is the stepper motor current. What controller are you using?
Cool. So now you can mill out that Han Solo in carbonite bust.
I second the Blackbox idea. However, if you are committed to the CNC shield, upgrade to the real one that was made for Grbl 1.1 for $20. It may...
How large are your parts? If you add two more spindles, you will loose a significant amount of cutting area. So, if all three gantry plates...
I am intrigued. I bought linear rails to upgrade mine and then realized I need to cut all new plates for the Y axis motor mounts since I need to...
The 110 v versions of the 1.5kw in air-cooled are readily available on Amazon, but significantly cheaper straight from the source country.
Not that long ago, I was looking at purchasing that one over the HY version due to it being cheaper and i did not need tall the features the HY...
Cut them with your CNC when it is done. But to make the holes accurate, make sure the CNC is calibrated and measure the diameter of your endmill....
I use this pen mount in my CNC. So far it has worked for me. But again, you will need a 3d printer. CNC pen / sharpie holder for plotter by Oscarko
The Blackbox is a great all in one system for $149.99 with phenomenal support. I have one for a future build I am planning. I am currently...
Another cheaper option for a spoilboard is particle board. Very similar to MDF, but where I am it is about 30 percent cheaper.
I used the 1/2 only in my Y axis. I used 3/8 4 start screws from the same source on my x and z. I wanted the exact same travel per turn. They both...
Don't worry. You will find them as soon as any replacements you ordered arrive. That is how I usually find things.
