Good Morning,
You may want to look at some of the commercial router lift kits and DIY alternatives. Clever people out there. The idea is to support the lift on both sides squarely so that there...
Good Morning Herring_Fish,
This appears to be a chopper driver. Chopper drives buzz. I have a PC driven HobbyCNC board that buzzes and hisses. When driven by EMC2, the 3 motors sound like a...
This is pretty cool. I will have to brush up on my Italian (hope your site is in Italian) so I can study what you have done. Really interested in how you timed the needle movement.
Good work.
I haven't seen anyone do this, however, you might want to look at the 3D printer forum and the software they use to create slices of a 3D model (slic3r). See also...
You can build or by a windmill of 2KW. They cost $$. Might be a good idea to look at Fieldlines.com: The Otherpower discussion board - Index and see what others are saying and doing. A home built...
Thanks for the answer packrat! that helped with the internal type. However, I do have several that use an external piston assembly and the this external piston is held from rotation by set screws....
I have a couple of robohand DLT thrusters with the replaceable cylinders and need to learn how to remove the cylinders without damaging the cylinder or the table. I have removed all of the visible...
I built mine several years ago by building with 3 separate 24 vac 5 amp transformers that were individually rectified, then smoothed with capacitors, and then the 3 + voltage outputs were tied...
A few years ago I bought 4 servos that I believe are AC 2 phase. They were made by General Kinetics in 1984 under a Fed contract and look like tape drive servos. There are 4 wires and 2 windings. ...
I would also like to put in a +1 on HobbyCNC. I have not had a problem with my setup at all. I use Keling (spelling?) steppers and an older version of the 3 axis kit board. Did all of the...
Top notch Marine. Good to see that you have started a machine. This will be a thrill for you when you cut your first project.

Called CoolCNC. Hasn't been worked on for awhile, but does boot in minimal memory.

If you just want to get the point across with a minimum of outlay and reduce the loss of fingers, toes, eyes, etc., the an automated Etch O Sketch might fill the bill.

Might I suggest that you look at http://www.crankorgan.com/ and see which plan seems like a classroom project. Several are pretty easy to build and very straight forward.
There are several...
Are the cables shielded? Are they running anywhere near a source of electrical interference?

Polylines are bad for Ace and some other converters as well. If you select the entire drawing and "Explode" the drawing into lines, then save to dxf, the conversion will work fine.

Here's my 2 cents. I use 2 rollerblade bearings with a spacer between them to make a sorta v-bearing and run that on angle iron. You can use any size bearing for this and probably should look at...
In both schematic diagrams, a resistor is shown across the terminals of the capacitor. If this is a bleed resistor, then a normally open (NO) switch should be added so that the resistor bleeds when...
WinTopo also has a freeware version if you don't need all of the Pro stuff.

That's the chopper frequency. My HobbyCNC board makes a hissing sound until the motors actually step.

Thank you very much for posting that site. I have been looking to do this for awhile.

You are welcome. This "hobby" is alot of fun. It sounds like you have the bug. You're hooked.

Semper Fi from a old Navy Chief. I was in your spot knowledge-wise a few years ago. This board really provided me with alot of insight as to how and what is needed to get the show on the road.

Many, many links. Personally I use HobbyCNC and Keling steppers. All works very well.

You might want to ask them for .BRD and .SCH files for Eagle, if they have them. You can create Gerber files from that software. Basic user version is free.
