Thanks Peter, I found the link to SketchUp's site first. I'm using Mac OS BigSur version 11.7.10 which is the latest current OS. I'd hoped...
Guys, thanks. FYI SketchUp Make 2017 is no longer available for download. See this page https://help.sketchup.com/en/make-access. I got excited...
Ok so I've looked at a few videos. I tried using the free online SketchUp to create a test project to bring into OpenBuilds Cam to add tool paths...
Mark and evili66, thanks for your replies. When we started way back Open Builds was the first place I saw a total solution ie we were told if you...
Well it's now been 10 years since I built my C-Beam. It's still pretty stock though there have been a few mods made. At the time there was videos...
Rats. I'd hoped there was another (many) trailblazers like me who had tried it, but had perfected it, which I did not. You see a while ago I tried...
As 98% of my cutting is .032" thick aluminum sheet, my bit goes through the material and into the spoil board every cut. So that idea wouldn't...
Yes my 50's era Atlas 10" has flex, I understand. I should have phrased my question better. Considering the rest of my C-Beam is basically stock,...
I have a fairly stock C-Beam I use to primarily cut .032" aluminum sheet. I use a coolant mist/spray to do it. I currently have the standard 3/4"...

Thanks Rob. I did not know Fusion 360 is free for hobbyist use. I assume design drawing is done and cut paths created and gcode generated all in...
Built a C-Beam in 2015 and have been using it since about every 2 or 3 months to make stuff for my many other hobbies. Have had lots of fun along...
Thanks Gerrit, will do.
Went to test what David discovered in his last post. Tried to type G28 Z0 in the settings field for Spcl Posn 1 and once again as I previously...
Thanks Gerrit. I did take note of the G28 Z0 suggestion. It would seem that G28 and G30 will do what I want/need, I just couldn't see it. That's...
I believe it was David who suggested using G28 to go to a known position. I never set G28 to anything other that 0,0,0 because I was under the...
Answered my own question. GNEA 1.1 is the latest version of GRBL. I'm confused about upgrading to 1.1 from V.9. Will I have to reconfigure how...
What is Gnea 1.1? Yes I realize the text you see when you hover it is the hint yet depending on what you put in the field in the setting page the...
