Reply With QuoteIm learning C++ now, Probably a little heavy for my first few projects. Super interested though.
on a real note:
It’s the first real thing coming out of my A4. The hard part of the math for the scanning is "solved" till I get it up and running. Then I will start a new thread on it, the table is 8" diameter and is being designed to do 10" diameter x 12" cylinder of mass with a DPI of 2400+. Duel Cameras with different colored low powered lasers for trig in parallel image comparison. I got about 2000 lines of code done for it should coming in around 6000-10000+- with full interface face options, and free.

this thread is not dead, after the salmon finish running my summer activities are done and its back to this. I did pick up a sheet of 1/4 plexi to make a cover for it
zhanx, where you from, what species is running now?
Kings are starting to run here as well as the pinks

I am in New york and will be fishing the salmon river. And browns (trout), kings etc are starting their runs here
ok moving the machine to get ready to start on the cover and the LAW of Murphy kicked in, so I guess i will be showing everyone how to solder the smd parallel port tomorrow.
At it again
Well, I torn my waders, so no fishing this weekend. Its ok tho because I got some work done on the CNC.
First up the parallel port plastic was just broken, other than cosmetic damage no harm. Which is good news.
So I cleaned up the rest of the wire on it and finalized it for now. I need to add limits and an e-stop later on in life, but it is good for now.
Next I mounted my router, super easy process. here are a couple of photos.
and a close up of the new router:
Now I just need to dig out the monitor, mouse and keyboard. And setup a VNC connection on the box so i can just remote it to control it. without a keyboard, mouse and monitor needed. Let me know if you guys want to see how that is done and I can add to this.

Just realized I forgot to mention I put it on wheels today since I have limited space and it needs to be put away after use. Simply wheels make it easier to move it around
no i didn't sweep before testing I just wanted to play.
First test run

It'll run much better and faster once you figure out ideal
settings in EMC2. I use Mach3, so I don't know EMC2 well
enough to know what to recommend....but I did once have
it running as smooth as Mach3.
Looks Great!!!

i think mainly my speeds are slow. Grabbing some wood tomorrow for that project i emailed you and the bits are on order so this coming weekend I hope to tweak the speeds a bit to get that made.It'll run much better and faster once you figure out ideal

You must have a newer version then mine. I like that better! that notch would come in handy for my X-Y laser alignment thing a ma job. Keep up the good work.installed my tool head mount from k2
got a link to that thingamajob?
i started tweeking today while waiting for my 1/8 bits to get here. Thoughts and comments on the motor sounds?

There was a thread was while back on using it to align your work pieces and finding your X and Y zero.
