I'll go for the Mega. It's available in my country for about $50, so wont break the bank. That screw shield is a good tip. Thank you all for all...
Estlecam looks like everything I need. It seems like the Arduino road is now a good one and going for that. What board are people using and is...
Thank you for the respond. I do have the cheap Shield clone, which now seems really outdated. I do have TB6600 4A stepper drivers for the motors,...
I Have an Ox and a CNC Shield (with individual psu's for all the motors). But I have a hard time finding any good info about software for the...
Thank you, all. I'll look into all this when my new stepper drivers finally arrives. Hopefully GRBL have all that I need. Looks that way.
I'm indeed learning Fusion myself to design parts. Have used Sketchup before, but Fusion looks a lot better. And Fusion has many great tutorials...
I'll look into all this freeware programs. They look promising. But it doesn't seems like it's much of good beginner tutorials on any of this...
Nothing against GRBL. When I was looking around in the beginning, all I could find about that things like Universial GRBL. And that can't do much....
Not many opinions on it, it seems. Maybe it's like asking "What is best; pepsi or cola?" "Green or yellow?" Depends on the user.
I'll try those programs then. So for now I have just ordered some new drivers. Thanks for all your responses.
Is there freeware out there that can use auto z-zero/edge finders?
Thanks for your reply. Yes, it's more and more clear that I have to upgrade the controller/driver system even before I have begun using the thing...
That trick worked. But the powerdraw like this is very high. The psu's fan went in overdrive and the drivers became very hot, fast. A fan blowing...
It's CNC shield/adruino uno combo.
I have been looking at three boards: Smotthstepper ESS - Looks great, but is costly and need and extra motor driver-board. PMDX-412/416 - Looks...
How do I check if the driver holds the current? I have connected a multimeter to the motor. It only shows current when the motor moves. I'm verry...
I was going get finnished calibrating my OX today. But when I came to the z-axis I ran into problems. When I drive the z-axis up, it just sag down...
I'm a new OX owner and bought a CNC shield on ebay. It dosn't cut it since Mach 3/4 isn't compatible. What is the recommended controller/driver...
