Brand? Random China™. ;) The majority came with the rails which were from Amazon. They are the same ones Sharmster and Jacob Lotter used on...
I am a fan of Z zero at the waste board if it is surfaced so it is parallel with the X. You cut completely through your material without damaging...
I like Rick's suggestion. Especially since you are cutting wood. The Workbee with the belts may be all you need for wood. If you need it to be a...
Use 1/2" - 10 five start screws from McMaster-Carr. They package them well, and shipping is reasonable. If you get them from China, there is a...
I am curious about your linear rail bearings. do they run really smooth, or are they a little "tacky"? I am doing a similar conversion and even...
If you have Estlcam questions, there are a few of us on here that use it so ask away. If I do not know the answer, I will help you find it...
Estlcam is easy to use, but sometimes. Far easier than Fusion 360 if you are just doing simple 2.5 D work. You can choose climb vs conventional...
I have cut stainless steel with my CNC router? If you are careful, you should be able to do it with the mini-mill. Here is a good bit of info...
So, when I built my CNC 5 years ago from OpenBuilds components, my size requirements were similar. I can get a 1/4 sheet on it, or with tiling, I...
I had those drv8825s with a cnc shield for starters. They were overheated way too easily. I upgraded to the DQ542MAs with my arduino before I...
I forsee belt stretch as being a potential issue. I would look into rack and pinion. If your gantry remains the same size and weight, I do not...
This is what I did to mill aluminum angle pieces for my CNC mod (High Z type LEAD mod) I am in the process of doing . It worked great. [ATTACH]...
Your issue may be the V3 cnc shield does not have the right pinouts to run stock GRBL 1.1 -- particularly for the z axis. It has to be a V3.1 or...
I can't help with your questions, but the wiring looks nice.
Yeah. I would go WorkBee.
I am modifying my existing CNC router and have switched to the LEAD type plates. A bonus I found (it was not intentional) is that I will get...
You should get a little more usable cutting distance in the Y because the Y plates are 125mm vs the larger workbee plates. The lead could also be...
Is there any chance you have a loose wire on that side since it worked properly for a while before?
The change log details all the updates. Estlcam: 2D / 3D CAM und CNC Steuerung... I have the latest version on my laptop that is in the house...
Thank you for the explanation. I would love to see one of the drawings, but I totally understand if you do not want them on the internet.
