Yeah. They're cheap and unplated copper to begin with. I keep them tinned. They wet no problem and I haven't had to touch up the tips in years....
I have a couple of cheap radio shack irons floating around. They've never let me down. Use a damp sponge or damp folded paper towel to keep the...
I don't have a g540, but I've dealt with Soigeneris. They're pretty good. I bought some Alpha VFD cable from them. Great stuff. If you change...
Mach systems can get pricey. There are ways to use an Arduino and seperate drivers to take advantage of the freeware available. Joe
The 17 may not be sufficient, but check to see if your driver is holding at full current when stopped. Some controllers have this option and if...
Fusion does vcarving too. I like Fengrave though.
Yeah. To terminate it in the cab. I didn't think of it initially either and reordered. Then I realized I should've done the same for limits. Even...
I used 5pin at the control panel and 4pin at the motor.
I don't think I would use rj45 connectors for this. It might be out of the current rating for them. The wire gage for rj45 is small too. I think...
There's probably a number of ways to do this. I'd try scaning the handwriting and converting it to gcode with Fengrave or finding a handwriting...
ESS in short is an Ethernet cable to lpt pins. I have a seperate little 120V to 5V wall transformer for it. It was laying around collecting dust...
The control board draws from the same source as the motor drivers. You might want to install more PS depending on other components. For instance,...
I have the couplings and T's
Those won't work because of dimension H. The flat 1/4-20 t-nuts should work if you shave hair off with a hand file. The next problem might be stud...
The tripods already have a 1/4 stud right?
use a 48v supply
Just having some fun :)
What's a 4 shaft with 3 claw? I'm thinking of one of those stuffed animal pickers at the local arcade.
I recommended the 2hp 220V because you can derate them for smaller motors, they draw less current, and you could upgrade to a 1.5kw later if you...
The VFD will take house AC voltage and convert it to the three phase for the spindle. The higher voltage vfds draw less current at the breaker....
