8:10 this board has major pcb design issues! just look at the placement of the esp32! with copper plane under it!

i think you forget to connect pin9 of uln2003 to 5V. ? am i wrong ?

Can this machine suitable for cutting acrylic cake topper

I love this setup and video, and have been planning on trying this out for almost a year, and finally am about to do so, but I ran into a bit of a problem where I'm going to need to control/run x2 NEMA23 4.2amp stepper motors for the Y axis, which now I'm unsure how to do this using this type of ESP32 configuration? I purchased 3 DM556 Drivers a few months ago, which I'm guessing I will now need a 4th for the extra Y axis stepper being added, as you probably can't run x2 NEMA23 4.2amp stepper motors off on 1 DM556 right? And if so, would you just run 2 wires off of each of the Y Step and Y Direction coming out of the ULN2003A chip/board? Or will this setup not really work with two Y axis steppers? Any suggestions?? Please and thank you???

disapointing without ruida control

Where I can found this board

Root controller can program without computer

@12:26 Perhaps _explain_ what the machine is intended for so people can either pass a reasonable judgement or perhaps give input on how to address any ongoing issues? 🤨 As of now it looks like it pretty much failed in the one task it was supposed to excel at being a Fast, large scale CoreXY with it not being able to draw _either_ straight lines or accurate corners.

How did you wire your limit switches on the makerbase board? I see 2 wires coming out of the switches and 3 going into the board at different colors? I am trying to figure out my home switches with a mks dlc32 2.1 board.

How well does it do images like portraits on wood or acrylic?

The instructions, software, and setup is the most awful of any device i've bought. I've spent 5 hours today trying to get this machine to work, and it still wont home, nor connect to lightburn....

The duct tape pen mount probably wobbles sir?

set up fluidcnc yesterday and am having homing issues, every time home all 3 axis simultaneously they stop right at they hit the limit switch. i get no error codes the machine just says its jogging any ideas?

verygood😍😍

Do you have any plans on releasing/selling the design you used for the custom aluminum end/gantry plates? These are exactly what I need for my build.

Love the update! have a look at the Mark forged Kinematics, I found it give better positional accuracy over CoreXY with the same benefits of removing mass. You might be interested in this :) maybe a dual head version is coming soon :P

I must have missed it....what's this machine's intended purpose? Plotter?

Large belts are good for rigidity, but with such small diameter pulley you need to use the finest pitch you can find. In your case the coging is obvious on your spiral test draw. A 5mm pitch belt has an increase of tension when each step reach a tooth thus making facets instead of radiuses. 5mm belts have a thick core done for way more traction than you need, and you cant put enoughy tension in them even with your assembly. I would rather use a 2mm pitch belt with the same width, at least at the servo reduction. Other than that nice sturdy design.

Good morning 🌅, what is the difference between machines from FA , this one is green, and the other orange, I am very new to CNC , I am looking at them and do understand what the differences are, I am a old dude, thinking about purchasing one myself next year, I am in the process of building my workshop at the moment, I am English retired but living in France,

Your channel is an excellent discovery. I truly love the shape of your doughnut. Having been into WLED myself for many years doing this kind of thing, I'd love to give this doughnut a try. Did you share the STL somewhere?

7:00 if that part cannot be made by a CNC machine, that is a DFM (design for manufacturing) issue on your part. Totally possible to make some changes to the part geometry to make that much more cheaply made on a 3 axis CNC with a few setups. Adding a few radii to corners and not having unnecessarily difficult to machine features etc. When I worked as a mechanical engineer, one-off parts like that and significantly more complex ones would be machined on 3 axis mills in house, and while my employer did own a metal 3D printer it was so unreliable and expensive to use it was essentially collecting dust for years.

did you tension the belts correctly ? gates has recommended belt tensions you can measure those by using a phone and an app to get the frequency on a specific distance of belt ( like 150mm belt) with such a full aluminium build you can easily go to the max belt tension given that the motors running the belts have proper mounting and use double shear 2 bearings top and bottom

Great job and good insights

When I try to get good deals I always end up with hundreds of € or even above €1000, so why would it be better to use pcbway or similar services?

If you add a moving bed it would make an amazing large format 3d printer. That's definitely the easiest approach but a moving gantry would make more sense.

Which version of light burn do you have? I'm at a loss of which one of gcode, dsp, galvo.

I missed something. How can you upload, or find a new ESP32 if the WiFi on it is not set up?

Do you have a link for the manual? Omtech actually doesn’t have one (the file for the k40+ is for a different component)

wow! next level good job!

Where did you buy the closed loop motors

Hello can you help me? The manual of my K40+ is poorly written and lacks of clarity, which made the initial assembly and calibration frustrating. It took significantly longer than expected to get the machine up and running due to the unclear instructions. Thanks.

si It's possible to cut 5mm acrylic. i wont to use 5mm, but will be using perspex as i know this is a best quality acrylic to laser cut. would it not be better to have the water chiller to? im in the uk so not hot here but seems like your in Oz my cousin?

It's amazing how all these creators have a problem just at the right time for PCBWay to sweep in and save the day. Very fortunate! They are always at the right place at the right time.

Also does it have a pass through to put larger pieces of wood

I’m a little confused I have never had a laser before but I want to get one and not sure which to get I am new to all of this what’s the difference in omtech co2 k40 + and a diode laser ? and I thought it only needed a air purifier what else does it need?

Cutting speed on 4mm wood ?

I bought a giant, ugly one of these from China...actually works for 1/3 the cost.

Is there air assist on this laser at the cut? Cheers

Love to see the new build Myles! I dont know why KZbin didn't suggest this video when you released it! clearly I needed to hit that bell button! Its great to see the Root controller in action! I guess I need to send you another one soon with all these projects!

How thick wood (ply) can it cut?

That acrylic case looks so cool! Didn't know you could get a C02 laser in this price range. Do you find the bed size limiting?

Can i use scriber instead of diamond engraving bit?

Omg!you uploaded amazing -🙂

brooo The intro on another level

I need the complete diagram because the one you give does not explain where each component goes or where the screen or the stick goes. Your project is impossible to replicate because things are incomplete. Can you provide me with the complete diagram, thank you

Great intro. I love the donuts, particularly the one in the printed plastic shell. I'll be interested to see where you go with these things and what's next. Newly subscribed.

I want to switch away from Mach4 for my CNC router. I want the new style wifi type firmware like 3D printers use. I think I have narrowed down between FluidNC and buying a board from Bart, or Buying a Duet3 board and using Reprap. I wonder which one is more finished and will be easiest to implement on my CNC router? The good thing about Duet is I want to switch a couple 3D printers I have from Marlin to Duet / Reprap as well. So I could have a common hardware / firmware between my CNC machines and 3D printers.

Extra weight at the bottom? Unlikely, i think it's just bottom heavy by design because that's where power elecrtronics and the Z powertrain lives. TT was previously known as Tevo and gained a pretty horrible reputation for itself; but it's since evolved a lot. Two of the people i knew at Geeetech work there now. I wonder if the HGX gears are well axis supported in the extruder. Creality K2 has a flaw there that the axis just start flopping around and the extruder gears start misbehaving in all sorts of ways.

If the usb cord works for DATA on other stuff but not your ESP32. your missing "windows" com port drivers. install Windows CH340 Driver or CP210x Universal Windows Driver and you will likely have joy. For example, if you have a wemos d1 and the blue LED does not light up when you plug the usb port into a PC. Its because there is no com port. It needs a virtual comport driver. As well you will also need the correct .jason file and the correct board file/library loaded in arduino IDE.

the videography/intro is AMAZING! Can you share more info on the simple neopixel sheet and lamp? I know you said it didn't excite you, but it looks easy and straight forward and my kid would love for me to build him one.
