For what it's worth I had to adjust the alignment of my Y axes twice in over three years - once when a stepper cable broke and one Y motor went...
What have you hung on your X axis - palm router or spindle - if it's a spindle what size? Try adjusting your anti-backlash nut, but don't make it...
These questions are for you @David the swarfer :D. Alex.
Sorry, I don't use the interface (I'm familiar with the post processor), but I'm sure one of the experts here will answer that fairly soon. Alex.
Are you homing every time you switch the machine on? Alex.
I don't use OB Control,so I don't know for sure, but I wouldn't think so. To find out if you have backlash in X or Y, I use a 10 degree engraving...
As @David the swarfer said - the only tweak I would add is to do a very short jog before taking each measurement - that removes any backlash you...
That looks nice and solid - I've been trying to explain to someone (on another site) today that fixing legs to the framework of a workbee is not a...
You should be able to "upload a file" from your PC - on my phone so can't demonstrate. Alex.
Looks like a good, solid bench - is that a torsion box top? Alex.
If you have access to 3d printing there are lots of files for hose adapters on Thingiverse. The larger the diameter of the hose the better. If you...
G10 L20 P2 will set the current location as G55 wcs zero. You might need to add X0 Y0 Z0 to the end of that - I'm not sure if grbl actually...
What cad/cam software are you using? If Fusion 360 then the Openbuilds post processor for grbl has multiple wcs. docs:software:fusion360...
P1 is G54 G91 is incremental, not G92. If I recall correctly G92 sets a temporary home position - in the Machine co-ordinates system. If you want...
Try using L20 rather than L2 - sets the current position as zero for the wcs selected by the P parameter. Alex.
That's a bit of an old post - I have found I can get rapid moves of 4000 mm/min and feedrates up to 2000 mm/min with the V-wheels. I've upgraded...
If you then go back to your start position do the Y gantries line up again? - one possibility is that your two Y leadscrews do not match in pitch....
Check the wiring to your Z stepper motor (with the power off) preferably with a multimeter. Homing will not work until you fix Z - it has to home...
My bad - posted the wrong link -my apologies. Alex
