Because @sliffy asked for it.

  • what software are you running and how are you driving the steppers? - cant believe you have had no comments and this has been up a month or two, but at least i get to be first to say i think you have done a great job with it, will be starting my own shortly...

  • The steppers are driven by a modded version of HobbyCNC Pro. The mod was to remove the sync circuitry as it causes lost steps. For software, i use EMC2 to execute the G-code. I currently use VariCAD for CAD and CamBam as a CAM processor. I'm still looking for a more integrated solution that does more axis' and ideally runs on Linux.

  • Thanks, and I still think thats a great build, I cant believe the problems I have had trying to bring it all together, I have even joined some groups and forums and must say there not that helpful! - I am a skilled mechanic, a 30yr veteran of electronics as a hobby, and I still find it hard to get good info on this from the net, with that in mind I am going to start my own website to detail the build, and I'm going to build my first simple CNC from off the shelf parts that be bought anywhere
