Have you tried importing .stl files from Thingiverse to experiment with? If you search cnc in Thingiverse it should turn up a bunch of free ones...
The Blackbox is a 24V system which may be why you burned them up if you used a 36V power supply. If you look where you connect the power supply...
I have those drivers on one of my machines and I use a 36V power supply. I have never noticed anything getting hot. However, the motors I have are...
I think the issue you are seeing with Vectric software is they do not know what your acceleration rates are which is why they are so far off. I...
There are tons of 65mm spindle mounts available on the internet. Sadly, few have the right hole pattern for 80mm extrusion. I wish Openbuilds...
I thought 1.5 kW spindles were 65mm in diameter which will definitely need a shim. If you have a 3D printer, there are lots of shim files. Here...
In V carve you have to save multiple tool paths for the different endmills being used. You may have generated them, but inadvertently did not save...
1 mm is a lot. That can be the difference between cutting through and...well being 1 mm from cutting through depending on where you zeroed your z....
I use 3 on my CNC router, and 2 on the lathe (I do not have one on the rotary axis). I use homing and soft limits so I do not worry about...
You will probably have to manufacture your own. The problem with the Chinese spindle mounts is that there are many that look alike, but not all...
Mine is the same way. I have it plugged in to a ceiling outlet and it just hangs down. It stays out of the way and can reach all sides.
These Xtension Limit Switch Kit have noise filtering to help reduce EMI issues. I have them on my lathe and I am very happy with them. I have...
This is the same with Lightburn. I purchased both of those through the Parts Store.
I never even thought about that one, which is weird, because that has happened to me before.
Not only did the eyes shift, but so did the nose. I checked your code ant it looks fine and should cut like this: [ATTACH] The nose and eyes are...
VCarve desktop is what I use for signs and 3D carved objects. For creating flat parts (2.5D) I use Fusion360, which is free. I started out using...
You would probably have to create tat grid unless someone has done it for that machine and has the DXF or SVG file. Alex's idea of just using a V...
I zoomed my screen in to look like yours and this is what I get. My screen is zoomed to 175%. [ATTACH] If I just back it out to 150%, I can see...
Ok. The video is much more helpful than the Facebook pictures. You did not create a tool path. You have to select the vector so it turns red,...
Believe it or not, it actually works. I have been using this method for six years on my CNC router without a single failure yet! Weird since I am...
