Laser CNC made with mostly Openbuilds and amazon sourced components. Lots of 3d printed components as well. The main purpose is to cut EVA foam.

    Power supply voltage?

    And on the driver wiring: going push or pull config (signal high or low, ie wired to pulse+ or pulse-)

    Just wanted to update what had happened now that it's been fixed for quite a while.

    When I wired my din connectors, I swapped two of the B- Wires between the two Y motors.
    This let it work slightly because the drivers are one in logic but the small phasing in the physical drivers caused this harsh movement.

    Since this, the motion has been working quite well and we haven't had any problems with the Y motors losing steps and gantry twisting!

    I have been working on something similar to this before I discovered this website, and happy to see people are doing similar things.

    Can you elaborate more about your choice of components? I thought to use the Cohesion 3D controller,
    Do you think it will work?
    I am also thinking about double Y motors, but with belts.

    Also I have a very simple hinged plywood cover as an enclosure and I plan to use a cheapo camera to see what's going on to avoid risk of injury/fire. That doesn't cost much to do.
