    Old multicam mg205 retrofit

    I found a good deal for a 5' x 12' Multicam MG205 CNC router on Ebay. I have spent the last two weeks completely gutting it and retrofitting it. It had stepper motors that I replaced with clearpath servo motors controlled by UCCNC software with the UC300ETH controller. Here is a quick video of the first test using g-code and air cutting some circles. So far so good. I still have a few things to finish on it like the homing function and spindle control. I will be posting more on this as I get toward the finish line. I have all the old parts, ie, steppers, controller, amps, handheld pendant, etc. if anybody is looking for parts. Machine was operating when I got it, so everything should be working.
