Rob Saunders said that he cut through thin plywood and even 1/2" poplar! Read here: Laser Cutter/Engraver OptLaser 6W with Z-axis
Did you read Rick's post? The one just above yours? :banghead:
I betcha that he did it that way because he gains a few centimeter of effective work travel over having it both on the inside/outside for any...
You cut thru a 1/2" material? WOW, that's great news. It will open up many possibilities. It may eliminate the need for CO2 laser, if time is not...
The IC number doesn't tell ME what driver it is so it's difficult to tell how to wire it. If you could post the driver name and/or number it may...
I once had a similar problem on my z axis, Atkinson. I would start with the bit at material top surface and by the time all the parts where 'cut'...
Kevon, looks like I'm the only one who understood from the get-go what you mean and now that you mentioned it, I agree, the spindle moving up and...
Aluminum is not THAT expensive so buy some square parts on eBay. You don't have to shape them, all you have to do is drill the holes as per the...

While wiring can be the reason for your problem it can also be some settings that are too high, like acceleration or motor current, to name a few....
As Kevon has said, the C-Beam can do this too with very little extra manufacturing.
Pete, like most things, there is a give and take scenario with the micro stepping. Since this is a milling/routing machine, and not a 3d printer,...
Flash, we always love pictures! :D
It could be backlash but to tell for sure we need to see the complete circle. Level your bed and reprint it.
It is possible that the drawing you've imported into SkerchUp is 'group'. If it is than you have to either right click and chose 'explode' or...
Yes, they will be kind of heavy, but, if you make the aluminum plates the first real project you cut on your machine and you don't use high...
Florian, do 15 rails really get bent easily if screwed down every 10cm, or what ever the distance is between the mounting holes?
