Thanks for the responses. I ended up installing Raspian and following the bCNC instructions here: bCNC It was pretty straight forward, but often...
Well, this thread just died. Anyone have a Raspberry Pi latest 3 image with bCNC installed they can share? If not, what is the best way to install...
Hi Kyo, Thanks for getting back to me. I went from sub 100 acceleration to all at 250 and man what a difference! I'm easily doing the same jobs in...
Hey Kyo, have you done grbl acceleration optimization on your sphinx machine? I built pretty much the same machine and am about to start tweaking,...
David! You are my hero! Once I posted the op, smoothing on, with your .cps file, boom, no explosion! Thank you so much! Now I can get back to work...
Also, without smoothing, UGS was failing about 10% into a 2 hour complex operation. I switched to g-code sender software, which is very basic, I...
David, thank you for all the feedback. I'll try your grbl.cps today and post results. I tried the open builds version and that didn't fix it. I...
OK, so I found the issue. When I turn smoothing on, it all goes to hell, smoothing off, it's all good. The problem is that I rely on smoothing to...
Hello folks, I'm hoping someone on here can help me out. I have several setups in a 3D job, just did adaptive clearing, which worked fine, 12...
Yeah, I don't have the space or the budget to do what Wade has done, but it's an impressive machine! Very well designed. At some point I'll move...
I'll setup the lead screw like Wade: [MEDIA] Look familiar? Ha! The sincerest form of flattery...
I'd drill straight on through from one c-beam into the next. Through hole in one, tap the other or a not, depending on whether or not you need the...
Ha! I was a helicopter mech in the marine corps, but sometimes the slide rule can tell us just a bit more... I like your ideas. I think there will...
Mr. Ranger, you mind if I post your image in another forum. I'll send the link. There are some engineers over on MYCNCUK who have been helping me...
I think I'll try the 2" x 6" like this, it is so sturdy! I think If I did two square tubes, as you've illustrated, I'd do a bit thicker wall,...
OK gents, I did a quick mock up of the steel 2" x 6" x 3/16" wall X beam that I'm going to construct. The six holes in the end are for mounting to...
Yes, linear guides are a great improvement, but rigidity of your structure is just as important. I think I'm going to try these linear rails on...
Can you post images of your mock up?
Mr. Gray UK. I think you're correct, although, closing the structure, attaching the two beams together, perhaps with through bolts, would also go...
Looks interesting. Are you building it or are you still considering options? Two c-beams are certainly better than one! And I do like the square...
