I just soldered longer shielded wires on my motor wires for my 1500x850mm, but I do not see a reason why it wouldn't work. I am just cheap.:thumbsup:
I run mine via USB connected to my laptop.
1/8 microstepping is plenty for a CNC. It is what I use and my steppers run smooth. I may try 1/4 just for fun. I don't think you would notice the...
The cheapest entry point for electronics I can think of is a Chinese cloned Arduino (you may get what you pay for) and a CNC shield on which you...
My version of the Ox is a lead screw driven 1500 mm Y by 850 mm X and I use 269 oz (Or were they 270?) NEMA 23s on the X and Y and a 175 oz on...
Also, it is usually longer that 1000 mm to allow for the purchaser to square it up. I thought the store web page used to advertise this fact, but...

This is weird. Today, everything was there. I can access all settings. I did not reinstall anything. So, disregard my question. It was obviously...
I use 1/2"-10 5 start lead screws at 1500 mm and have had great luck with them. They move 1/2 inch for every rotation. They are available from...
It is. That is what makes it fun. I started designing mine about a year and a half ago. Started building last March. Was cutting stuff by August,...
If you want to learn Fusion 360 quickly, start with these seven short videos and work along with them. [MEDIA] Also, this is a great video on...
I have been called far worse. ;)
I have had problems looking at some gcode file formats in Camotics (can't remember which). I know it is due to my lack of paying attention to how...
For something that big, I would use lead screws or rack and pinion. Mine is 1500 mm by approximately 850mm but cuts just over 50 inches (1275 mm)...
