As I said I made a mistake with typing U axis, I was at my laser at the time and that’s where the U reference came from. Can you tell me if the A assembly is the same as the X or Y, (and I am aware...
Ha Ha! I know where I got U axis from! My laser engraver! LOL
Book 2. I was thinking the A axis, wasn't sure, but I too don't have the book in front of me. It is the chapter that covers the acrylic mounts for the limit switches. I tried going to the links in...
I have been away from my machine build for some time now due to an illness. I am finally back in the game and have gotten my laser working and reviewed my files I have for the acrylic limit switch...
Glad to be back after a long time away!
I think I got it. I chose the Mach 2/3 Arcs (Inch) and did a dry run. Looks like that is the one. Thanks for all of the help. This is how we learn!

There are a bunch of them. Not sure which to choose. Mach III ARCs Inch? How do I go about determining the...
Thanks! I'll give her a shot.
What Post Processor do I select for use in VCarve Pro for the KRMx01?
Thanks
I was mistaken in that statement. I thought the information you directed me to a while back was the gcode. My apologies. Sorry for the delay in response. I have been really busy.

No, unfortunately I don't have the originals
So I need to convert the gcode to one of the corel formats and import it into Corel? Or can I import the gcode and save it as a Corel format then print it?
I need something to run gcode from corel laser print. That is the only thing I have for now to print with and need to cut some parts but it is in gcode. I am new to this stuff, maybe Corel already...
I built a CNC router and have gcode for the limit switch stop mounts. I believe I can do a better cut job by cutting them on my K40 instead of the router. Can I just upload the gcode to CorelDraw and...
I have downloaded the gcode for the acrylic parts for the limit switches and would like to cut them out on my 40W Co2 laser printer. Can I just upload these to my CorelDraw program or do they need...
Thank you very much for your help! I think I will go with the Hitachi as that is the one that was used in the book.
Awesome! Which router do you recommend? The Bosch 1617 or the Hitachi M12VC? I believe the Hitachi is the one used in the build and is a little less expensive...
Hello again
I am having a heck of a time finding router mounts. K2CNC is of no help, (are they still in business? I can't even get the site to load), as is anywhere else I have searched been...
Nevermind on the couplers, I found them where I got the motor kit. Thanks!
Do you by chance have a part number for the couplers and a place to acquire them?
Thanks!
Thank you very much! Now, one other question... I bought the 1/2-10 Five start Acme screws and clamps. These are 1/2" diameter. The stepper motors in the kit will have 3/8" shafts. I believe either...
Seriously? You present the same problem I find in the book. I can browse "Ebay" all day long, but that doesn't help when I don't know what to get. I could get a 76oz motor, 40oz motor, dual shaft,...
I am either going blind or have totally overlooked it because I cannot find in the Building the KRMx01 book what type, size, etc. the stepper motors are.
Any help? Any one?
Thanks
Thank you very much for your reply! I will check them out...
Awesome! Thank you. I checked them out and the Mach3 is 149 and they have Mach4 also for 200! Thanks again
Anyone know where I can get the Full Version Mach 3 software at a good price? Or another affordable carving software. I want to carve designs in my cabinet doors and also pictures in the doors as...
Hello All! I am new to CNC and am currently building the KRMx01 CNC. I have always wanted one and actually have built a few 3D printers and figured what the heck, if I can do that, I can build a...
