Re: 2M X 3M CNC Plasma Build
Tom, great to see another Aussie plasma build. I was originally going to use chain drive but then I started playing with a manufacturing business that bought a lot of laser cutting so I upgraded to rack and pinion and made my first cuts this month.
I gotta take some more photos as this one is a bit out of date. My accuracy is about 0.07m and I was hoping to be +- 0.1mm.
I'm running LinuxCNC and an experimental branch for torch height control using LinuxCNC's PID based features. Its still a bit early to know if it will work. So far so good but it is fun making that first cut!
