Maybe you are stalling your stepper motors. Have you adjusted the current for each driver?
Is your gcode file in mm or inches? There is an unresolved bug in cutting inch curves.
A couple of updates: I soldered the header pins for the GLCD shield, updated to current firmware, installed a delta 3D printer configuration and...
I have an unused Smoothieboard 5xC for sale. I purchased this for a 3D printer build that I have yet to start. I have decided to focus my...
Image by Evan F posted Jun 23, 2016 at 10:07 AMFinally got some time in the shop time. I bolted the 2 X-rails together with 15 - #8-32 x 1.25" cap...
Thanks for the information. I may have to rethink my current plans... I look forward to seeing your bed and double Z-plate designs.
Nice looking design! I like the spoil board support and the way you suspend the Y beams. Is the back to back C-Beam 100% necessary for the X...
Great food for thought with these ideas. I think I'm going to try bonding/bolting/welding the 20x60 rails together to see if there is...
Nice idea Dany. I added another wheel to the Z rail in that area for 4 wheels per side instead of 3. I really don't see any flex there. When I...
Yeah, it's definitely not Z backlash. It's the independent movement of the X rails. If you center the spindle on the X axis and apply rotational...
Has anyone come up with a working solution for X-axis flex on a 1000mm X-beam on their OX? The more I use the machine the more I notice. 2.5D...
Not sure it is better, just different. I don't have experience with the gShield. The Wiki's are here: TinyG and G2.
I am using Easel, Fusion 360 and V-Carve Pro with my recent OX build. I started learning Fusion 360 for 3D printing and planned to use it for CNC...
I have recently been using Fusion 360 for CNC and 3D printing. I am still getting the hang of the CAD after using Sketchup for several years. The...
What is your travel setting per motor revolution? If you are using motor 4 for the Z-axis, it should be the [4tr]=8 for openbuilds 8mm acme lead...
You don't have the tinyg configured for your stepper motors and pulley sizes. Have you done any calculations or calibrations prior to trying to...
For the spindle, make sure you configure the tinyg with $p1pof=0 to cut the current when the spindle is off. If you check your configuration with...
Shannon, I used this online calculator to help determine wire guage for my build. Evan
Thanks Steve! I hope to be running soon....
