Although that gets you running, it doesn't find the problem. Have you checked your switches to see if one of them is faulty? Use a multimeter to...
People need to be aware, though, that many plastics become hard and brittle with UV light. Alex.
What sort of switches have you got? Normally open (including the Extension limit switches from Openbuilds) need to be wired in parallel, so yes to...
As @phil from seattle said, check both sides of the black box circuit board for any obvious faults - they are quite rigorously checked before...
Could you post the g-code file? I can't see the line of code grbl is objecting to in your screenshot. Alex. Sorry, must have been looking at the...
We have all been there @dlhoulton :D Alex.
If a second pair of eyes would help @dlhoulton I have V-carve desktop and would be happy to have a look at your Vectric file if I can open it....

What are your $20, $21 and $22 settings at the moment? Try setting them all to 0 and see if that helps. (disables homing, soft and hard limits)....

A common request for help starts "My steppers make a noise, but don't turn" Those symptoms are exactly what you would expect if the motors are...
Fusion 360 has a steep learning curve, but it's worth it in my view - especially as its self-contained - cad and cam combined. Fusion will produce...
Your best way to use the time until your machine arrives would be getting used to the cad/cam software you plan to use. What were you thinking of...
