Hello Metalguru, Drop the inner wheels, they won't do much. And if you want the inner wheels, make sure the eccentric spacers are on all on the...
The new PSUs are high efficient, 88%, they are completely different than the "old" 65% efficiency PSU. Higher efficiency is less heat, so, besides...
A lot of TB6560 are badly made and what you describe is indeed what happens when they fail (bad pulse). I had better luck with the TB6600. The...
Hello David, There are a lot more builds posted that use a few to none component from OpenBuilds. We would love to see your project especially...
I would be happy with 0.1mm for a hobby machine, but that's just me. What would you be expecting? Would be nice to see others tuning in :). -Ronald
Just make sure, like Rick indicated, that the table is wide enough. Like its shown on that photo Rick posted, it might be that those small knobs...
Hello Steve, Those are indeed the other 5% I was talking about, sometimes they are indeed bad from the factory. The OpenBuilds team tried to get...
Hello Cleyton, I was also way to late to post this, but now others canread it as well on how to fix this problem their selves if they want :D....
I use "intersect with selection" as well. - First I draw for example the outside of a plate, - then I draw the holes on top of that surface, - use...
Better later than never. Cleyton, For 95% sure it's the coil on the output line. This coil will rip loose and break the solder points on the...
I'll look into them tomorrow, but some extra wheels added to it would not be a bad idea. I think I can make a design for that, using 4 wheels...
It's not you ;). Those plates you took from the C-Beam machine drawing and they are not that exact. We are working on a whole new set of SketchUp...
I'll make a quick drawing, no problem. Indeed, the tapped holes only work for the normal spacers and not with the eccentric ones. By the way, the...
The V-Slot gantry plates with a V-Slot against it is sturdy, real sturdy. The problem is the washers, they make the construction weak. To solve...
Most HP crap actually :D. But you should leave a few mm of space from the bottom of any laptop to the desk. Older laptops mostly have a fan...
@ Rendermandan, Most parts are in stock but you might need to order them separately, not a Kit. This way you could see if there are alternatives...
Look closely, the table size is smaller than most laptops, thus when your laptop has a fan sucking from the bottom it will be blocked. It was just...
I'm using a 12" mitter-box, 96t non-ferrous blade. First I make a rough cut and then I scrape off about 0.5mm. This will reduce the error margin...
Use 8mm even for the black corners, and place the T-nut reversed in the V-Slot, so facing with the flange to the outside of the V-Slot. 10mm will...
@ Jason, The tapped holes are 10mm (3/8") deep, @ Steve, Jason was talking about the ends of the C-Beam, not the gantry plates for the C-Beam...
