Thank you Rick. And yes I will manage my expectations. I am really not putting much stress on the bit skimming 3mm off of my models after the 3D...
Wow thanks for digging out those files and pictures Craig, that is a really smart way to do this mod. In my shop on my little 30x30" CNC I...
Really interested to learn more about your mod – do you have any pictures, drawings, or parts list?
Grainger also has 15mm rails (still $500) but lower-profile. [ATTACH] Make me wonder which would be better in a dusty environment - ball...
Thank you Rick. Good idea on the blocking. Better dust off my very limited Bridgeport skills... Here's a visual look down the X axis of a 3D...
Yes thanks for the reminder. I looked at McMaster rails but they are not in the budget right now. Edit: If Anyone else is looking at this, I...
Do you have a 2D CAD library of parts or only 3D files?
Ok I like that idea. You are too fast - I edited my post above and found that the spacers in your build video are 4mm. So I will start there.
@Peter Van Der Walt do you have an idea of how I can determine how many spacers I will need to run between the anti-backlash nut block and the...
Here's the parts I found for this mod (no reply from OP above). 80mm dia. Spindle Mount x 2 500mm HGH15mm Linear Rail with 2 Carriages Nowhere...
I'd love to know where you sourced these parts? I am having the same issue on my Build (which also has the same 2.2kw Spindle as yours) and would...
Never seen that option in Vcarve pro - near least not on the ShopBot. Any ideas where it is in Vcarve?
How do you send a command to turn the coolant and dust on (via relayed power strip)before running a file?
Nice to know. Windows update just ruined a very long carve, and the Interface is the likely solution.
What is the size limitation in MB of a GCODE file the interface can reliably load and run? Could it run a 200Mb 30 hour 3d finishing tool path?
I should have searched the Resources section, as this post achieves more or less what I was originally asking about: Water Cooling Monitoring
Thank you. My Z axis is 500 MM – is that short or long?
Peter – when I rebuild, this X axis c-beam with the tension nuts and thrust bearings, is it better to use the two Nut blocks or the one...
Thanks Peter. I have one more major R&R operation - swap out the metal-wheel gantry carts and 10mm lead screws along the side Y-axis C-Beams...
Question for you Peter - why does this config use a 4-wheel, one-sided XL Gantry Cart instead of a two-sided six wheel "sandwich?" What is the...
