This is my 3rd attempt at drilling wood with the Mantis mill. It took a while to get a hang of the image-to-gcode interface and emc2. But I have a pretty good handle on it now. The result is a rough pass at creating a wood version of the austin terrain.
Actually I am not controlling the rpm because I blew that circuit out. I just am attaching the rails from the power supply directly to the spindle motor. So it is just going full tilt. I haven't run into any issues needing to control the rpms yet.
