So there are a number of issues with my table, design issues, wear issues, and general improvements I've been wanting to make..
I've been collecting parts for more than a year, and planning in my head some of the things I want to do... and as of Yesterday, actually set upon the project, and began tearing things down this morning....
Murphy's law says someone will call and has an urgent project they need done, just about the time I get it torn down as far as it's gonna get torn down)
A 'partial' list of issues and upgrades...
1) I've been wanting to add a second limit switch on the second X axis rail, so that the table will auto square... So I bought 3 proximity sensors from CNCRP some time ago (2 for x and 1 for Y) and also a PC card for the PC to allows to parallel ports to control the BOB, allowing extra I/Os (no longer having to make choices, will have 'plenty' for virtually anything).. also bought a second cable, and a single gang panduit box to be mounted on the side of my control box, where a cover with (2) DB25 jacks will allow a much cleaner cable routing and connection method than what I have now...
