lol, I’m not an audio-phool, but when you spend $12k AUD on your speakers (many years ago before those little money suckers, we call kids, arrived...
Hehe, dude, just get some OFC speaker wire from Selby Acoustics. Their “Ugly” brand cable is excellent and really good value for money....
My first new stepper cable came out great! And my Z Axis now works! I just need to make the X and Y cables now. The XLR connectors pair perfectly...
@Alex Chambers I double checked with a local CNC supplier that uses this spec cabling for their 3A NEMA23 steppers, and they advise that the...
Hmm, I’m not running them over 2A per phase so I should be fine. By my calculations these wires are good for about 2.2A each based on the number...
I stopped by Jaycar today and bought 5 meters of their AWG 22 spec, shielded, flexible microphone cable. I realised that the cable is actually...
Try to get an enclosed printer that can print ABS and ASA. They warp easily on an open frame printer, but are well worth the effort. ABS is very...
Do you have a 3D printer? I do all my prototyping in plastic, then make the final parts on my CNC once I’ve confirmed the design is good. It cuts...
No worries, here’s what the config looks like in FluidNC: [ATTACH] And you can see that Control connects and even shows a FluidNC config page:...
I hear you. I’m finishing up with my current employer, a US software company, after 5 years in April (restructure). I built the function from...
Hehe, my wife has zero interest in making stuff, but the idea seems solid, :D I’m fortunate that my garage has a nook in one side that made for a...
Cheers, I'd love a bigger space - but the wife would not appreciate me taking over our 2 car garage with my hobbies. :( Nice, I'm just an IT nerd...
Hehe, thank you. PS, I've updated my CNC controller cases with the optional insert: Printables
I made some good progress putting my CNC machine back together - but I forgot to buy some good quality stepper motor cable. Doh! I'll have to go...
Here is the FluidNC PWM Config I settled on: PWM: pwm_hz: 1000 direction_pin: NO_PIN output_pin: gpio.32 enable_pin: gpio.27...
The Nema 17's I run are rated at 2.5A and Im running them a 2A which is the limit of the the A4988 Drivers - for such a small machine, I think my...
I made some great progress on my Makita speed controller + DLC32 project today I figured out how PWM speed control needs to be configured for the...
I figured out why FluidNC was laggy on my DLC32, I forgot to erase the ESP32 before programming it. Now it seems to run very well. I also figured...
Honestly, if I hadn’t been able to buy my almost new Makita for $160 aud, I’d have bought the RoutER11. RoutER11 CNC Kit
The 500w spindle was good to learn on, but the balance wasn’t great and the Chinese power supply was a death trap which eventually blew up.
