Attachment 417064
Volume 3 - Chapter 8 - Mach 3 Config
Mach 3 Configured.

Volume 3 - Chapter 9 - UC100 Install
UC100 Installed and working.
I plan on installing the UC300ETH and configuring it. I will do that after I go through Volume 3 completely so I can iron out any issues in the book.
A tornado hit our local Amazon distribution center so any thing I order is taking weeks, Once some of the parts needed for the advanced electronics volume finally get here, I will start as I suspect I will have volume 3 testing complete.

Volume 3B
I upgraded the machine to advanced Electronics as per the Volume 3B book.
Advanced electronics, while a little more expensive lets you move into some more advanced operations, such as plasma cutting or adding a rotary axis.
I have added a drag chain upgrade and mounted the layout board to the machine.
You can find the upgrades here:

Machine Break-in
It't time to do some break-in on the new machine.
I did a writeup on my break-in procedure here:

Basic CNC Tables
I did a writeup on adding various table types to the CNCCS.
You can find it here:

Here I am using one of the tables to do a drawing test.

Router Mount
I added a CNCRouterParts router mount to the build.
This means you can use any of several spindles or routers with the CNCCS (CNC Construction Set)
