SainSmart 3018-Pro CNC Router: Assembly, Review and Guide

[@groundskeeper5292]

thanks for the info. Just started setting up my sainsmart cnc router. I had taken a long hiatus from it, so there was a bit of a learning curve. Will defo look into the easel software.

As someone with two years of experience, I highly recommend avoiding GRBL-based control boards. They often encounter random stopping issues, which can be incredibly frustrating and time-consuming, especially during CNC operations. Despite upgrading my stepper driver to the BT6600 and trying multiple solutions-such as upgrading the firmware, replacing the control board, and using different CNC software-the problem persists. Unfortunately, this is a problem rarely discussed on online platforms, but it can completely disrupt a job when the machine unexpectedly stops during cutting.

Great help thank you. It would be nice to remove the music in your background. My unit came with limit switches (3), can you help on where the lower moving table switch mounts, it shows at the front but when I mount mine there it is too low to make physical contact with the table? Thank you or anyone else can help with😊

How do you find the zero again after you have done one program? Like if you want to switch bits to do a chamfer or filet along the edges of your first program. Could I mark the board with a pencil?

My z is touching the switch after starting a project. How do I limit the retraction height?

Are you going to do a part 2 ?

Can you make a video explaining what will happen if you shoot a gun bullet straight into the atmosphere ( 0 degrees angle) no deviation, can it kill someone on its way back?

[@daviderickson6551]

Damn right! Aside from air resistance, the bullet will be going as fast returning to gun height as when it left gun height.

Let’s go!

Mines don't have the program called castle. Is there a way that I can get it or download it

Actually Easel is free, Easel Pro is billed.
