@Robert Hummel Do you think this will cut 1/8 ABS plastic?
True. I think I will start simple. I just need to get it up and working then I will start to tinker.
Is this overkill for a Diode laser?
@Robert Hummel Is it better to have the laser closer or father from the target.
@Robert Hummel That is great. It is going to take at least that long to get the rest of the parts. Thanks for the Help.
ok thanks. I will get my power supply ordered today.... Now I just have to wait for the 8mm screws to get restocked to place my order.
wow, that is allot lower than I was expecting.
LOL, copy and paste mishaps :p
@Robert Hummel Do you know what the amp draw is under full load?
So you have not had any mishaps not using one?
@Robert Hummel You think you could post a pic of your end stops
no worries. I am maybe getting overly excited so I have started posting more. :thumbsup:
@Robert Hummel any idea on the ETA on the ETA of 8mm Low Profile Screws. I am ready to buy just need screws to put it all together.
Ahh WOW I wish I had the money to build something like this vs a laser diode machine!!
I have my laser, Lens, protective glasses ordered. I will have to check if my power supply I was using on the CNC is is 12 volt and if it is I am...
I found some on ebay and they are on the way. I was about to place my order and they are out of 8mm Low Profile Screws M5 :banghead:. Are 10mm too...
Wow, that looks great. I have my nano on order and will place my order for the rest of the parts tomorrow.
Robert, At first I am wanting to cut/etch foamboard and maybe some other thin materials. What are some good suggestions on entry lvl diodes.
Also is there an alternative to the GT2 (2mm) Aluminum Timing Pulley "out of stock" that will still let me use the belt in the grove technique.
Wow that would be great. This will be my first try at laser cutting/etching. I have worked with mema17 in the past with my shapoko so that is what...
