Hey all, The background is I have an Ox modified to run leadscrews that's been running ok on a TinyG board for a couple years. I decided to go...
Thanks for posting that dust boot, I'll be printing one this weekend to try out.
Look at the Lead builds, they use stock Openbuilds plates for those connections.
Make your own touchplate out of aluminum, or 3D print and use your aluminum tape on the face and edges for connectivity. I've attached one I made...
So the tinyg board does NOT hold the WCS coordinates after a power cycle. I was pretty sure I tested that when I started to use it a couple years...
So $#, look at WCS numbers, power off, power on, $# and see if the numbers are the same. Got it. The tinyG's firmware was a branch from GRBL...
@sharmstr I rarely like being proven wrong twice in the same thread, but I'd be much happier if it's true. I'll test mine tonight. Although it's a...
RAM vs. ROM. He's cycling the power, it will lose the memory of where it was. I regularly pause work (Feedhold) when I run out of time, but leave...
It's basically a pipe clamp holding the vertical pipe his shop vac attaches too. See the 10:15 mark for a close up look at the bracket. The only...
Can I make a suggestion? Find a piece of steel HSS C-channel or tubing to attach your SBR rail to instead of trying to make a stable box beam out...
It depends on your motor amperage. If you're using the High-torque ones from the OB store, the max output from the xPro is 2.5 Amps while the...
Which program are you using to send the g-code to your machine? Regardless, you should be able to edit your g-code file and delete everything...
Ahh, so the gear is slipping on the leadscrew? The flat spot on the leadscrew is still an option. Or is the belt slipping on the gear?
If you're talking about the coupling between the motor and the leadscrew, you may want to consider making a flat spot on the leadscrew with a...
You've got too many variables. Squishy MDF mounts (which can split when the force is parallel to the top surface, I've had it happen in other...
It's not the thickness of what you're cutting (my cutting passes on aluminum are .1 mm deep), but the torsion flex on the gantry which causes...
I get what you're trying to do, but the weight of a camera 7' out will probably not be supportable with a single plate and a few wheels. You'd be...
If you plan to cut aluminum exclusively, don't go with an Ox. I have one with leadscrews I built a while back, and I have the parts for a Workbee...
You're correct, that's what I use on mine with 1/8 microstepping. 200*8 micro steps per revolution, divided by 8mm per revolution.
