  • hello

    which is the program you used to Arduino?

  • you can find more Free DXF files and silhouettes designs ready for CNC machines

  • What program did you use to determine the controller values for mapping? can you just use the arduino environments serial monitor?

  • It's certainly easier than translating a drawing into the stepper motor movements. I wonder if theres a way you could record the path you take and then play it back, thus eliminating the need to draw the cad file and get the controller to read it?

  • What? No start/select functions?

  • very good! Wich firmware do you use? and what about the software to run the CNC from computer?

  • Great! This setup could actually be very useful in fabricating fast, cheap and dirty...
