Thank you! I read it but couldn't understand it well. So I ended up trying all possible sign combination and found "mine" ;-)

Thank you Paul. I understand what is your setup. The thing is that I'm trying to do it with only one switch which is installed close to the '0' position. So I want '0' and min_limit to be set based...

Hi, can somebody please help me with my homing problem. When installing home switches I didn't think about that and now the switch is at '0' position. Tried many settings but looks like I'm missing...

Thank you Jim and Al. Yes, I use it with a transformer already for some time and it is OK.

Hi,

is there a way to configure the controller to work on 220V if it's originally made for 110V?

Thanks

Hi to all!

I have a small router Sable-2015 for which I'm building a new spindle. Reason is the original spindle has huge run-out, it is too fast when cutting plastic and makes a lot of noise....

Hi coherent,

do you have any pictures or drawings to give an idea how you did it?

Thanks,

I tried LineGrinder too but it couldn't handle round board shapes and this is why I stopped.
Here are the MillExporter changes I made: Index of /millExp
It would be nice if somebody could continue...

Hi Hanspeter and everybody on the list,
as you mentioned Altium I remembered that some of the older versions had a script called MillExporter which outputed code for controlling Rolland routers (not...

Hi,
I tested today Line Grinder and found that it can not process circular board outlines. I attached a small test pcb with its gerber files I used for my testing. Same pcb but with rectangular...

Hi Don, I'm trying to follow your design. Would you mind sharing the saddle modification details?

Regards,
Filip

Very nice done!
Would you mind sharing your sketches and parts dimensions? I'm in the process of doing the same and this would help me a lot.

Best Regards,

Thank you Hoss.
Obviously I haven't searched good enough. Now I know there is nothing wrong with the idea.

Thanks Ray.
I actually started designing it this way and wanted to check if I'm not totally wrong.

I was thinking about putting it behind. Do you have any pictures?
Thanks,

Hi guys,
I'll start with the same conversion very soon. I studied most published conversions and I was wondering what is the reason that all have the Z screw installed on the right side of the...

Yes, I know. It depends what you need and prices are ridiculous. Last time I needed some metric hex socket screws and found them in Canadian Tire only for about $1 each. I thought they were made from...

Thanks.
I opened account in Fastenal but even I pick up the order in the local store they charge me for shipping.
Acklands doesn't seem to sell in small quantities either, but I'll check them out.

Well, in the context of this posting "hobbyist" mean "no need for industrial quantities"

After extensive internet search and personal visits to all local stores I found I still don't have a proper supplier for fasteners which is hobbyist friendly. What I mean is: very often I need one...

Thank you All for your feedback.
I'll keep this spindle for engraving only and we'll search for other solutions for low speed work.

Hi,

I purchased one of those pairs some time ago and now turned it on for first time. I was surprised that while running at 1000rpm I can stop the shaft just with my two fingers.
I'm using more...

Hi, did somebody replace the original router chuck coming with the machine with a 1/8" collet/nut? Need advise if it is possible and if yes where to get these parts from.

Thanks,

Hi mk77,

Hi, any suggestions waht kind of small vise I can use with this machine for small plasstic parts?

Thaks,
vph

Thanks.
Obviously your controller is different type. Mine do not have a DB9 but DB15 connector.

vph

Thanks. Meanwhile I received the schematic from Luke Chan. I did not check yet details but this connector seems to provide some control signals before the optical isolation.

thanks,
vph

Hi,
did someone find the schematic of the controller which comes with the machine? I'm curious what for is the smaller DB15 connector.

Thanks,
vph
