Hobby CNC Foam Pro Stepper Control Board
IceWind:
Woohoo!
Nice work there billscottni.
Nothing like the cool smell of molted solder, an din my case burned fingers, to cheer a man up. :)
Just curious what stepper motors did you get and do you have plans for the structure already?
I sometime ago bought the stepper motor controllers and main board but ended never building the CNC. :(
Instead I get excited to see other people building those.

Nando,
Machine is to these plans:

Last post said the machine would be to the Dray design. I built it that way and found I couldn't get smooth movement. Changed to the La Rustica Design from a French website, runs on ballbearings so will hopefully be smoother!
Another couple of nights should see it ready for a trial run :?:
