I had trouble with overheating. I put heat sinks on my drivers and they still would cut out when they heated up. I installed a computer fan to...
I used the McMaster Carr 1/2"-10 5:1 for my 1500 mm lengths. I don't notice any whip problems. I made my own anti-backlash nuts from a...
That is weird. Did you adjust the current on the individual drivers. When I used the Protoneer shield with DRV8825 drivers, if they were not...
I am embarrassed to admit that, as a newby, I had the coordinate system right, but I kept making the bone head mistake of using negative...
What motor drivers are you using? Are both Y motor drivers set to the same microstepping and steps per mm? Is the x axis getting enough current?
I bought the set (1/8,1/4, 5/16). However, the Makita comes with a 1/4 so I would get at least the 1/8" because you will most likely end up using...
How hard is it to remove the tape residue from the carpet tape? I looked at this tutorial and liked it due to the fact masking tape comes of...
Ha! I had a collision alert with knobs as well. Unfortunately, my alert was more of an after the fact alert. I built hold down clams using the...
When I was cutting parts for a 3D puzzle out of 5.2mm under layment plywood, I was running at 2540.0mm/min (100 IPM) with a bit diameter of 3.2mm...
Like Jonathan said, check for a power input on your shield. I do not know what shield you have, but when I used an Arduino with a shield, I...
Yes. You are correct. If I am making a simple part where I am just cutting something out and/or drilling holes, I like to use Sketchucam because...
Looks awesome!
Kyo did a great job of showing how to hook the Arduino to the DQ542MA on the first page of this thread. C-Beam cnc It is what I followed when I...
Thanks!
I was thinking the same thing. I would have used plastic tubing and valves. Another thought I had, since I have multiple spoil boards I use...
How wide are the shelves? You could just cut a slot in wood and slide plywood shelves in the slots. Seal the wood with polyurethane (or whatever...
That would probably work very well. I didn't have access to either a 3D printer to print one, or a router to cut one so I went for the Chinese...
Here they are together. I can only claim Zero's grave as my handywork besides the sabertooth skeleton. The stacked op pavers are for an unrelated...
Thanks. Just finished up my sabertooth skeleton. I put a couple red leds in the eye sockets with the battery pack hidden behind the pelvis. [IMG]
I am working on the eggbot now. Still waiting for the EiBot board to get here. After milling those plates yesterday, I just need to assemble and...
