My Grizzly G8689 is due Tuesday and thanks to advice I got here on the forum I ordered the 3 axis stepper kit from Keling and it's due Thursday. Thanks for the advice !
I'm planing to make the stepper mounts myself using Hoss's DXF files (thanks Hoss) and the X and Y don't seem to be any problem.
I am however wondering what is the simplest, least expensive method of converting the Z axis ?
Also, has anyone connected a stepper to the fine control of the Z ? I searched and didn't find anything on it.
Or, is there a kit that is "affordable" ? I know about cncfusion and it's expensive (for me anyway) and it appears it connects to the side of the spindle head. Wondering if that creates a binding problem.
Thanks for any advice, I can't wait to get started,
Steve
