That is what I did. Then I discovered I never seemed to have a hole where I needed one and if I tightened down a clam too much, it would pull the...
That is weird. Maybe you already looked here, but they seem to be available at this link for those customers that purchased one. I am not one of...
You could add larger lead screws to the 1510. I have a CNC machine I designed and built that has a 1500 mm Y and I used these screws...
Agreed.
If you are talking about the occasional lifting during a spiral drilling operation, I believe that is to clear the chips from the hole. I may be...
I guess I did misunderstand your question. I have never attempted this yet. Although, I plan to soon, but I am stuck in the middle of a home...
Another option is to carefully drill into the shaft and tap it - using the hole in the pulley as a guide. I did this on all my lead screws then...
I used it on everything but the screws with nylock nuts.
I am a little confused. The only tool path settings I know are for the depth of cut, or for the amount left for a finishing cut. However, i have...
The v-carving is also where I have noticed it. But, Fengrave is generating my g-code. Hmmmm...
If you get an Arduino you can use the Arduino IDE software to load GRBL onto it. You need the software for the drivers to run GRBL and it makes...
I believe it is because it is always trying to cut in the same direction (climb milling vs conventional milling). But I may be wrong We need @Gary...
I use an arduino, 4 DQ542MA drivers and Estlcam with an xbox controller to move jog my machine around. I am not sure if that will work for you but...
I see... The lead machine's spindle mounts direct to the cbeam. I was thinking it mounted to a plate that went up and down the cbeam.
What I don't like about the linked one is how high it is. The endmills are either need to be long, which can be detrimental, or the foam bristles...
Why nor just buy the spindle mount that fits the OD of the spindle. They are cheap. My Makita is 65mm so I bought a 65mm spindle mount from...
Is there a chance the wires are reversed on one axis?
I also am a big fan of Estlcam. I use Gary for tech support.:) I love the probing function and the use of the Xbox controller to jog it around....
There would be more flex in the X axis which can affect accuracy in cutting some materials. But, if it is for cutting wood, it may not be to much...
Did you install the Arduino IDE? I have windows 7 on the old laptop and I needed to do that to get the arduino drivers. I was using a newer...
