I also use the superglue masking tape method for may things. No more need for holding tabs. What I like best is that it is thick enough that I can...
I cut aluminum just fine with my 270 oz Nema 23s. But, maybe higher torque would be better? I hate to mess with something that works. My fear is...
Here is how I printed my templates. I never had an issue with the software trying to print a small plate over many sheets. Printable plate files
It also works well if you want to do two-sided milling. Skip to about 4:35 to see the reference pin placement. [MEDIA]
That is what I did. Then I discovered I never seemed to have a hole where I needed one and if I tightened down a clam too much, it would pull the...
That is weird. Maybe you already looked here, but they seem to be available at this link for those customers that purchased one. I am not one of...
You could add larger lead screws to the 1510. I have a CNC machine I designed and built that has a 1500 mm Y and I used these screws...
Agreed.
If you are talking about the occasional lifting during a spiral drilling operation, I believe that is to clear the chips from the hole. I may be...
I guess I did misunderstand your question. I have never attempted this yet. Although, I plan to soon, but I am stuck in the middle of a home...
Another option is to carefully drill into the shaft and tap it - using the hole in the pulley as a guide. I did this on all my lead screws then...
I used it on everything but the screws with nylock nuts.
I am a little confused. The only tool path settings I know are for the depth of cut, or for the amount left for a finishing cut. However, i have...
The v-carving is also where I have noticed it. But, Fengrave is generating my g-code. Hmmmm...
If you get an Arduino you can use the Arduino IDE software to load GRBL onto it. You need the software for the drivers to run GRBL and it makes...
I believe it is because it is always trying to cut in the same direction (climb milling vs conventional milling). But I may be wrong We need @Gary...
I use an arduino, 4 DQ542MA drivers and Estlcam with an xbox controller to move jog my machine around. I am not sure if that will work for you but...
I see... The lead machine's spindle mounts direct to the cbeam. I was thinking it mounted to a plate that went up and down the cbeam.
What I don't like about the linked one is how high it is. The endmills are either need to be long, which can be detrimental, or the foam bristles...
Why nor just buy the spindle mount that fits the OD of the spindle. They are cheap. My Makita is 65mm so I bought a 65mm spindle mount from...
