Didn't see anything being cut.
Do you have any in the 6 to 12 inch range?
Check out the Newfangled wizards in Mach3. They have some common operations plus some electrical shapes.
DO NOT deal with this POS. Placed an order (through E-Bay), paid by postal money order (because that's what he wanted) and waited and waited and waited. Never received the item and never got a refund...
See if this helps:

You can also let Mach3 calibrate each axis for you. I believe its on the settings page on the lower left of the screen.
Here I am answering my own queries. After MUCH searching, I have found a card that will take a step/dir signal and output +/- 10v analog. It is the R2040 card from Rutex. Here is a link to the board...
I am also interested in acquiring at least 3 of these boards. I understand that complete boards are available from the seller. Can anyone confirm this? If these are not available, are there any other...
Taig and Sherline share the same type of spindle -- 3/4-16. Although the Taig has an unthreaded section just after the hex area of the spindle (used to "register" the chuck), the 3/8-16 to 3/4-16...
Was never a big fan of soldering anything like a resistor on DB9 connector. It's small enough as it is. I would like to see a trimpot on your drives. Like Pplug states, it would allow one to fine...
Absolutely awesome enclosure! Like to build one for myself, but having trouble sourcing the aluminum extrusions here in the Great White North. What is the black material in the background of the...
Check out Nick Carters site. Truly a wealth of information.

Well, yes, if you consider this purchase as a purely business oriented acquisition. What makes this hobby (machining) so gratifying is not only the challenges, but also the satisfaction of overcoming...
I can not comprehend what makes these spring loaded engravers worth so much. Gunlocators, since you bought one, is there anything about them that would make you justify the cost? Perhaps I am...
There's not much to them. This one I built not too long ago. It holds 1/8 " solid carbide engraving cutters. The tension on the cutter can be adjusted. I have found through use that you do not need...
This is only good for duplicating a thread i.e. you have to physically have a copy of the thread you are trying to reproduce.
I, for one, would be very interested if something like this...
Sorry about your health troubles.
I've had similar problems with cast iron surfaces and moisture due to extreme temperature variations. What I have found that works extremely well is a product...
Ok. Here's my entry. How about Mini Raptor Gecko or MRG for short.
What values should the speed and accel pots be?
I also am feeling a bit guilty over my win as I used Ch_Irawan's overlay for my count. Marcus, if you read this please send my two "cheap drives" to Ch_Irawan when they become available. Only then...

Gentlemen, thank you so much for your reply. After reading your response I went down to the shop (read garage) and changed just the X-axis direction from active low to active high and left everthing...
Hello. This is my first post so please be gentle. I am trying to setup a demo version of Mach 3 on a Taig cnc mill with a Xylotex driver board. I have completed the basic setup i.e. ports, pins and...
