Good morning!
After much thought, I've decided to bite the bullet. I'm going to get a table router kit from Modular CNC ($310), a Gecko G540 from Gecko ($299), and some 382oz/in steppers from Keling as well as the power supply.
First, does this look like a decent starter setup? I'll be milling a new CNC eventually from these parts, but for now I'm just going to be learning how to use the machine and working with some simple wood stuff.
Second, I see that the G540 has a DB9 connection for each motor. Is there a decent place to get these cables pre-made for the motors or should I pretty much be making these myself? I don't mind spending a couple extra bucks to save the time.
Oh yeah, and is there anywhere else I should be shopping for this stuff? I've had a surprising amount of trouble sourcing these things elsewhere...
Thanks all! |
