Looking good! Alex.:):)
My workbee from Ooznest claims a resolution of 0.1mm. Given the inevitable play & flex in the whole system that's not bad for a machine using...
Nice job @Colin Mccourt! :) .... although...... my dad worked with wood most of his working life and I think he would have knocked that out in...
Everything flexes, even the workpiece. Have you measured the result to see if you are getting the 1mm depth you expect. Try machining something in...
F-Engrave then click on download. Alex.
Z not square to workpiece? Flex in the bit? Alex.
Depends on what you are trying to move in the Z axis - what weight are you trying to shift? Alex.
PS - I wasn't actually around at the time the Acme thread was invented! Alex.:ROFL::ROFL::ROFL:

Cnc cookbook has a thorough account. Alex.
Have you got any side to side play on your V wheels. I apologise in advance for asking this question, but are you sure you assembled the V wheels...
Sorry, I'd forgotten you can't get at those screws after fixing the Z plate to the X gantry. :( Alex. :banghead:
I assume you mean the black anti-backlash nut? I would loosen the screws holding it, install the leadscrew, then re-tighten the fixing screws....
The ACME thread profile is A trapezoidal thread.
Indeed - I'm glad I spotted that - it's going to cause a lot of confusion for people like me listening to sensible advice from people like you...
CAUTION Anyone thinking of implementing this needs to be aware that Oozenest's implementation of G-code for the Duet controller is NOT STANDARD -...
I'm hoping to get some time this weekend to see if the Duet behaves as expected (the easy bit) - I was going to create 3 G-code toolpaths and...
Thanks @sharmstr, confusion (caused by me) cleared up - I was conflating two strings of thought - at the moment I have in the back of my mind how...
I am very much a beginner at this, but from the contents of the macros Oozenest supplied with the Duet I assumed G5x was required...
NB Duet uses G55 for workplace co-ordinates, haven't checked but guessing rep-rap using G54 for something else. Alex.
