@David the swarfer, I think he speaks of SketchUp and not SketchUcam. I too, sometimes, encounter inaccuracies in SketchUp. Most of the times it's...
@Mopar32985, looking, my man, looking good. If you think that this is fun wait until you start cutting things you've designed! :D
Yep, I bought it too. I bought the 10x10 and it was kind of tight. If I had to do it again I'll buy the one you linked.
@Blackkrystal73, go to cnczone.com and search there. Start by reading this thread...
@Blackkrystal73, did you google it as I suggested? @Tweakie, I too will stay with Mach3 and have no intention to change. I was just wondering why...
I think that there is an affiliate in Europe. Look for it on the main Openbuild page.
@Gadroc, you may be right, BUT, SketchUp is free![img] Also, to be honest, for work in foam and wood, the accuracy that you talk about is not needed.
You've mentioned it before, Tweakie, and you also said that you are involved in it somehow. My question is why are they going with the Ethernet? Why...
Do yourself a favor and search TB6560 before you buy this item.
Dude, it will work fine. Just make sure you cut in many, shallow, passes at low ipm and use liquid to cool the cutting bit and material. How shallow...
@Forrest DIetrich, every time you draw an arc or a circle in SketchUp it's made of segments. You can see it when you zoom into the part. In it's...
Please read my post slowly. LOL I said SketchUp is using segments for arcs and circles but SketchUcam knows when it's a circle or an arc and treats...
Those instructions are true for circles too, if they don't cut in arcs but in segments.
The bit size depends on, mainly, two things. The part that you are cutting, a hole of 3/16 can't be cut with a 1/4 bit, and how fast you want the...
I asked for a reason. SketchUcam cuts arcs if it is an arc. If I have a part that should be an arc but is not (if you click on the arc and only a...
I have only used Mach3, so what I say is only verified for it. You can not just hit resume. If you do, most of the time, you'll ruin your part. Mach...
@Forrest DIetrich. I see that the Dremel attachment looks segmented rather than round. Did you use SketchUp to draw the parts and make the g-code?
Dude, when I said 'switch', I don't necessarily mean 'mechanical switch'. Optical is just fine but you still need, IMHO, two. One for each end. As a...
Limit switch, as the name applies, set the limit how far a part can travel. You don't put one switch per axis, you have to put two. One for each...
The optical coupling protects your computer form the board. If the board would send a voltage spike to the computer it will destroy your port or...
