I'm hoping to find something like CamBam... Any ideas? Sheet cam makes no sense to me. Can I draw with it?

That was the issue. Evidentally the PC I used to set everything up, didn't care about that. Are there auto-crossover Ethernet cards? >But the itx didnt likea straight cable... Once I made one up it...
I've discovefred making Gcode for plasma is not as simple as creating Gcode for, say a CNC router. Rapids on plasma requirethe torch to be shut off before moving, unlike a spindle.

Found that button, and its similar in function to Mach 3 which I'm familiar with. It computes the steps required for any arbitrary length, regardless of the unit. I finally get it.
What button, where?
That would be so helpful. I'm using servos with __?__ number of pulses per motor revolution. Then the motor' shaft(s) feeds into A SPEED REDUCER of UNKNOWN RATIO. I have no...
". Just set it up with the units that your g-code are in."
What does that mean? My CAM software is in inches and the G-code is in inches (G21) but the UCCNC software keeps ignoreing the G21 and...
Did you get your UCCNC to work in inches?
I'm looking for a checkbox in the config screen(s) but I see nothing.
I read people are talking about changing SHORTCUTS on the Windows screen? What is...
The PC doenst assign an address to the UC400ETH when I click the box for dhcp. The instructions aren't clear on Static addresses either,,, information is vague.

My good friend asked me if I could repair his Southwest Industries M3 machine controller.
I *THINK* its an ancient 386 PC running DOS, booting off old floppies.
To solve the CRT problem first,...
Well I'm not proud. I'm just gonna ask someone to show me how so I can get some actual cutting done.

Mach3 is awesome. It has given common people access to professional quality machining. Lazycam is provided on the disc with Mach3 as "crippleware". It has some features removed so you'll buy the...
I'm having more brain farts than Governor Rick Perry these days. Of course.... LazyCam is a data parser/convertor. No RTOS stuff at all. You might be hearing back from me about that.
Also, the...
I wish I knew enough about the innards of the controllers and math behind the I-J stuff. I would dare someone to open source a LazyCam replacment. My contribution would be the core programming for...
People looking for help with Lazycam... you don't wanna hear this, but give up. You're wasting your time.
As a programmer of over 30 years, specializing in user interfaces, I have to conclude that...
Hey all;
I just took delivery of a JCUT 6090A router table and I'm very happy with it so far. I'm glad I had it set up for Mach3.
Mandy is the one to talk to at JCUT.
I'm at...
The wiring was probably done by a 9 year old with his ankle chained to the floor. He did a lovely job on my JCUT machine, by the way.
About customer service... I had experience with Chinese eBay...
I had misspoke. The controller I have is a Mach3 setup with a USB.
Looking under my table I see a microswitch at the BACK of the machine. Do I take this to mean they want Zero at the back left...
I'm happy so far. Spindle works now, 12-bit resolution on the speed.
I have X, y and Z...
I cut some foam using some of the wizards in Mach3. The circle functions, (circular hole pattern,...
Okay, the machine is here. I got the JCUT 6090A with a fatter spindle and the 4th axis. The whole thing, including spare stepper driver and Rotary was about 3200.00 USD. Another 800 bucks to get a...
Hello all.
I'm proud to say I received my JCUT 6090V today and got it un-crated, built a computer to control it, installed the JCUT supplied software (EMC2, Lazy Cam Sheet cam, etc.)
The shipping...
Thanks for all this information.. All of it good to know, since I just wired a pantload of money to JCUT Mandy. I'm planning on doing some circuit board routing (not a lot, prototyping only). At...
Hey there.
I'm afraid those little motors wont have the umph to deliver any cutting pressure. They will be working very hard as is, trying to overcome their own inertia, with a little force left...
At first glance, this machine looks solid as a slab of my stepmother's cornbread. But look closely at the pictures... Non of the guide rails are supported. Just at the ends.
I do no have this...
This is the scary part. I do like the sound of "no customs paperwork" though.
I see some conversations about customs and fees?
I was on Skype with Mandy from JCUT last night and she had some trouble explaining the customs/broker thing to me. (Sounds a little like bail...
Ah I see. Thanks for that.
I seem to be having trouble getting anyone to reply to me from Jcut. I asked what that PCI card was and who makes it. Nothing.
Its Wednsday here so I know its not...
Please have a look at this... JCUT 6090A

This is the perfect size machine for what I want.
Anyone worked with this one before? The...
