Hi Darren, you can alter the current settings for the Duet, but Ooznest preconfigure the firmware to set the current at 2.4A (the maximum the...
Hi @Chris Hauser, have you tried using Fusion 360's cam functions to generate G-code from stl files? This link is to a suitable post processor....
Hmmm. Thanks Peter - like @sharmstr I thought OB control could display inches but needed the G-code in metric. Grbl has, of course, always handled...
Make sure it posts in mm - imperial won't work with the black box. Alex.
Blackbox uses grbl - so use grbl (mm) post processor. Alex.
It's taken me months to get my head around Ooznest's peculiar g-code and now I'm going to have to learn to do things the same way as everyone...
Hate to tell you this @Peter Van Der Walt, but my two are in their thirties and still seem to take most of my spare time! Nice design! Alex.
Use the grbl (mm) post processor. Alex.
What @Rick 2.0 said + if it's still stiff clamp it in the chuck of a battery drill and run it back and forth a few times. New nuts are...
Also if you stop defining curves as bezier Vcarve should output the G-code for arcs. (you are using the correct post processor) Alex.:thumbsup:
If you do think of adding linear rails @sharmstr's build is a good place to start. Shawn's Workbee 1510 Alex.
That's another approach, but probably not cheap. Alex.
Hi @phoenix fab, I found these two links which might be of interest; Added steel channel to X axis c-beam Cutting problem See message #12 on...
I think you are probably right. There are ways to strengthen C-beam and if you search the forum you will probably find a few. On my phone at the...
The reason I asked earlier whether you had strengthened the frame is because of the length of your X and Y axes - flexing of the C beams is very...
Hi @phoenix fab, in your earlier thread you said that you had side to side play on your machine - did you ever fix that? What was the cause of...
Hi @phoenix fab, I don't use V-carve, but I know it can output the G-code for arcs, and your G-code is all straight lines. What controller and...
Hi @phoenix fab, we need a bit more information to help with this. As a start could you please post your G code file and tell us what you are...
Hopefully that's fixed it. If it was loose the force on the bit would push it out of line. Let us know if it doesn't solve the problem. Alex....
Hi @Aeneas, is there a possibility that your X axis is very slightly twisted at the left side? I don't have a C-beam, but I guess there are two...
