Yes, with Aspire, you can specify different flat bottom type v-bits, so effectively, you just specify the tool-bit and it will give you a simulation of how that bit will perform (and this is...

Agree Gazza - I have just finished a few test pieces using your technique.

Yes, thanks again Burrman. I was expecting too much I was assuming it would pocket out the text and now I realise that the only way to do this is to switch to 3 Mill axis and then use a V-Bit to...

Thanks Burrman. I think I get it now, so essentially the endmill will cut the text profile. Surely this places a limit on the size of the text, unless you disregard the tools setting and just...

Hi, I know that this is an old post, but I am running V24 of BobCad and it is still a problem. I have a piece that I am milling, and all I want to do is engrave it with the date I created the...

I should have gone to the BOBCAD site first - all working now.


Thanks

This is probably the wrong area for this post - please let me know.

Anyway, can anyone give me some guidance on how to "post" Mach3 readable G-Code from the lastest version of BOBCAD (V23). I...

Thanks everyone for the advice and especially the uploads. I found what worked was to get the characters into a raster , e.g. Jpg, etc and then to import into a demo copy of BOBART, and then...

Have you tried it with Chinese Characters or UniCode?

Hi, I am wondering if someone can help. My daughter needs to route/cut out some Chinese characters into perspecs/acrylic. She is able to draw the characters okay, but is having trouble getting...

Here is also the " Grizzly" wiring diagram for the control board and all interfaces and power circuits.

It is identical to our versions, and have used this diagram to reconnect and replace my...

Neil, here is a repost of the circuit diagram for the V2 of the control board for the Super X3 (ie the version that has the daughter board on it).

Neil, now that is a fantastic idea. After lived through a month or so of torture getting my mill to work again (by the way thanks for you amazing help in this regard!) it would be good to have some...

Well, it is a long story. I intially had some of the earlier Panel and Controller board set which I was trying to get the circuit diagrams for after they got destroyed through a short on the venier...

Hi, here is a copy of the Super X3 controller board circuit diagram. I hope this helps.

Thanks for these pictures they were able to help me identify a small surface mount resister than just "brushed off" the board (so much for the soldering techniques) when I was pulling out my failed...

Many thanks. Yes, I noticed your other post listing the chips, and have ordered a set myself, and will replace them. I am hoping U1 is okay, but U2, U7 and U3 are clearly defunt as the have...

Hi Chrisjh, can you please provide details of the switching chip IC please. My board failed only after 2 hours of use (I hope it hasn't blown the main motor controller as well). The problem is...

Thanks for the schematic of your new controller.

My SX3 Front Panel controller has failed and am desperately looking for schematic or circuit diagram so that I can look at reparing it. The...

Thanks very much Bob, I will go searching....

Hi, does anyone in Australia know of who can supply Sieg X3 parts? The motor on my SuperX3 has stopped and I suspect the Controller PCB on the front panel - but I am guessing.

If anyone has a...
