$111.00 experiment. Two 1610 2000mm long ball screws....
Once you figure out what is loose, you should calibrate the machine so it is dead on. 1 mm is quite a bit to be off at 5 inches, or 12 inches....
I don't know if this helps, but I have found that I can do roughing passes with a 1/4" endmill at 1/8" inch deep with a 40% stepover at 3000mm/min...
I have never seen anything like this before. How much stock are you leaving for the finishing pass? The bottom picture looks like the 1/4"...
I use a wood cutting blade with no issue.
I speed up homing by jogging the machine to where the homing switches are so it only travels at the homing speed for a few millimeters. It will...
I am doing something similar to that but using 1/8" plate.
You actually need to calibrate it to what your screws are. There may be slight differences in the screws depending on batches. All CNC machines...
Many suggestions are in the link he supplied above.

Do you mean a switch like this switch? This is how I may switch between rotary and the X axis of my CNC router when I add the rotary. As with a...
And you do not need to have custom gantry plates cut.
Fusion 360 free addition. Fusion 360 for Personal Use | Fusion 360 | Autodesk I like it because I can sketch up 2D dxf files for plates and other...
You should be able to modify it for linear rails. You just need to model it up and cut some adaptor plates, or put additional holes in the plates...
I think you should display a toothpick with the Openbuilds logo on it in a massively oversized shadow box.
Mine works fine, but there isn't a lot of surface area on a small endmill which is why it should be placed on the collet. I can testify to the...
Now I am tracking. Thanks
I am confused. What Arduino Nano board comes labeled with stepper axis? Is this what you are using? Or is it a Chinese controller with "nano" in...
Vcarve Desktop is also very powerful and relatively easy to use with great tutorial videos. It has a one time fee rather than monthly payments. I...
I believe it is Fiber Reinforced Plastic. But maybe I am wrong.
