Crashes and hangs. I've been giving OBCam a try on SVGs and frankly, found it frustrating. Multiple crashes and hangs just clicking on a path in...
Good point about the wiring kit if I needed it but all I really need to get are the drag chains. It seems there are more similarities than...
After finally getting the time to get my CBeam machine running and get over the inevitable neophyte mistakes I'm pretty comfortable with what the...
Actually, either will work since the inputs of the TB6600 use opto-isolators which are essentially LEDs and the two outputs go between +5V and 0V...
I think a dust boot is a good rite-of-passage for beginning CNC people. This is my second dust boot for the DW611. First one was similar to the...
So after a long hiatus, I've gotten my CBeam machine running with reasonably good results but decided to get more serious about truing up the...
A bit late to this party. @jeffmorris, what have you learned so far? I'm going through a similar process right now. Using sketchucam mostly...
Makes sense. Thanks for the pilot hole tip on polycarbonate. That's the next material I;ll be using.
Yeah, started using labels like that last week when it became apparent that the complexity was getting hard to manage. I also added the the name...
Yes, I watched that. The problem I have is keeping track of multiple of the separate items that need to be aligned properly and what specific...
yea My bad, thanks for the help
Using layers with SketchUCam. This works but it would be really cool with one change. Currently it appears that all layers are used to generate...
I've been using SketchUCam for a few weeks now and getting a handle on it. I've been a sketchup user for at least 10 years so a lot of it is...
So, a quick update. I went to multipass 1.5mm and 10 deg ramping for my 6mm MDF and am getting better results. Also trying a different endmill...
Yes, I watched the video several times before starting and then assembled with the video running (more paused than not). Did a lot of squaring and...
So, I had some time today to take a look. The z wheel assembly was not loose - wouldn't move when I push on it - though it is at the limit of the...
Thanks. I'll take a look at that.
Depth of cut is 5.2mm. Material is MDF. Controller is an arduino Mega running GRBL 1.1f. Stepper motors are the standard ones that ship with...
I have a pretty much stock C-Beam machine that I built a while ago but for a number of reasons I haven't been able to work with it. Finally was...
Loose can mean many things. Are the wheels tight? I'd first check that and tighten the eccentric nuts. If you are talking about backlash, adjust...
