Got back to my CNC, Lots of Pics.

Nice foam cut there Nudge.

That looks good, is it someone you know? I made some signs over the weekend. Some took a couple tries, one was cutting fine and then decided to run off in the negative x direction, cutting all the way. I went back to Lazycam and checked it out, couldn't see the problem so I started over and it was fine. It was the Superman emblem for my grandson.

Before you do a cut, have a look at the tool path / program limits, it will show you the limit of the xyz and the way it will cut.

No its not! Cos its wood! Have you had a play with the motor tuning? what about the power output on the break out board?

[Jammer]

I set it up on Lazycam and had cut it before. I didn't doublecheck the toolpath before I started, just assumed it was OK. I think it just had a hiccup in the program.

hoping to get a new motor for my big mill by the hopefully middle of next week, just have to hope the guy that has it don't take too long packin it up.

Then I can get back onto the CNC of my mini mill which I hope to have finished by the time they raise the Titanic

[Nudge]

So next week then!

And if that other guy would quit messing around and send the power supply, then you could put it all together and get it running.

So are you ment to be supplying the power supply? What type is it?

[dallen]

if that other guy in Minn., would ever UPS the motor he says he has that will fit my big mill, I might be able to do something besides house chores, and watch it rain and watch the grass grow.

[dallen]

well it looks like sometime this next week the guy I have been dealing with about the motor for my milling machine will drop it off at UPS and I should be back in business "hopefully".

Jammer I hooked the power supply up to the power grid and got voltage reading on all outputs so were good to go there.

Now if I could just get all the rest of the junk around here to get in line I'd be doing about 45% efficiency.

DA

I finally got some more bits in the mail, I ordered them a long time ago and they must have gotten lost. The seller had to ship another set. Hope I can try them out this week.
Glad the supply works, hope it runs the motors well.
