Another nice thing about the 5/16"-18, besides the accessibility and cheap price, is that it works with the 8mm shaft coupler and the 8mm...
Brilliant! Thanks. You just made my life a little easier. CleanUp³ was the missing link for me.
I love designing in Fusion 360. I have generated gcode with it and it works great. I have not attempted to do trichoidal like you are yet. I make...
I just made a 5/16"-18 Lead screw - available cheap at most hardware stores - for my lazer Z axis (1.4111 mm/rotation). Basically my goal was to...
The first thing I would do is try and find the endmills you need in those longer lengths. Kodiak cutting tools makes some, but they are pricey....
That would work. Here in this post in the video is one like you describe made for the xpro V2....
1) Has it ever been used - and worked - without all the limit switches? With as much trouble as you are having, i would disconnect all limit...

You can get shielded wire at Home Depot or Lowes a little cheaper if you have one nearby. I paid $0.22 per foot for shielded wire for my limit...
I have not heard about Makita's failing. What causes them to fail? The nice thing about Makita for me is that there is a parts and repair shop...
No, you have to save it as an STL to open in Sketchup:D;) Oh, wait...we just went over that a couple posts above. What I do really like about...
I like my Makita. I like that it goes down to 10,000 rpms. I like that it is quiet. A spindle is probably better, but I do tot run my CNC for...

MG, Fusion 360 is free and STEP files can be opened in it. I have started using it almost exclusively now, because it seems easier and you do...
