Thanks Mark - most of the 3D printer platforms try to keep the build stage horizontal relative to the extruder - actually it's really fascinating...
Another source for Arduino+GRBL+stepper drive as a replacement for Arduino shiled + GRBL Shield...
Mark, I have also included the 9 axes board in my wishlist (not for any discount) but it may be something that I can use in my dream project. My...
Thank you so much for all that useful info. I am truly a noobe with all this and my edification is through browsing and reading data sheets and...
Mark, you had mentioned switching to GT3- belt & pulley - point to a source, please!
Mark, the motor mounted board is indeed a bad idea but I posted that to show that the ST chip is being implemented in a design. I have often seen...
I agree with both your points! Yes, running both ends of the gantry is indeed a good design when the spindle torque when at one end and take a...
Like I feel, it is not fair that some people have all the fun in their lives. I lived in a cacoon for the past 40 some years theorizing in...
The E3D - version 5 extruder is from UK and their website is: http://e3d-online.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=20&product_id=51 Robert,...
Good job, Mark. You are almost at the finish line! Two points I would like to make! When will be able to see the Garolite plates in the stores...
Hi Mark/Robert and everyone else! I came across this linear actuator design (meant for a hexapod aircraft simulator) but the concept of the belt...
eBay and Chinese made products are very attractive for hobbyists on tight budget. Many of the electromechanical products are quite ok but I would...
For whatever it is worth, I have heard that (not used personally) the controllers based on T6560 have some reliability problems. Besides the...
So sorry.. I am in North Carolina - have been in the US & UK for the past 40years - I am 68 now.... Not been to India in a long while!!!
It's been only a few months since I jumped into this hobby (!) and my findings on the net may all have been seen by most of you. So my apologies...
I forgot to mention: On the drive electronic side, I have the TinyG 6axes bord (https://synthetos.myshopify.com/products/tinyg) interfaced to tgFX...
Mark, have you looked at these from a company called ITEM. [media] [media] As everyone else here, waiting to see when the plates would be...
Looks great! All good designs start on the back of coffeeshop brown knapkins. Have you thought about using the PM rotor and stator coils...
As crazy as dreams tend to go, I was thinking of using dual spindle on the same drive!!! Humans tend to associate beauty with symmetry - if your...
Indeed the motor current tops out at 3A on the TinyG which is a shame. The tgFX is also in the development stages and is a little buggy. I am...
