yep, dremel with cutoff disk is what I would do, make a big enough slot for a decent flat screwdriver. should you not have a dremel yet, go...
my bet is EMI, maybe static discharge from a vacuum hose, or noise from the router through an intermittant connection. what controllers/drivers?...
Alex he means allowing for probing X and Y with the side of the bit. The probe macro has allowance built into it for the bit diameter so when you...
I would just make a second macro for 1/4" since there is no way to store and retrieve the tool diameter within OBControl nor GRBL.
from the docs at gnea/grbl you can use the ? command
As explained in f360/ob control there is already the option to turn it off for 'end of job' in X and Y but raising Z with G53 is the safest thing...
you need to fake the home. every machine needs to fake the home for the basic assumptions that Gcode generators make to be useful and safe....
first, basic machine setup: turn on or reset the blackbox with Z as high as it will go. that is Z machine home. after that you use the 'setzero'...
ok, so long as you are sure (-: another funny thing is that my blackbox loses connection on my Linux box (Xubuntu 18.04) after just a few...
I don't think this comes into it since you are setting the WCS in GRBL and everything for the mill and laser is relative to that, so conventional...
Hehe, yeah, me too. Hoping the vacuum will keep the chips off it.
to change to laser mode you have to do $32=1 if you do that from the manual command line then that is all you need. you could also put it in...
@Peter Van Der Walt I just noticed that CONTROL is doing an update check every 15 minutes and immediately wondered if this relates to some of the...
don't forget, if you are doing a $32 change in Gcode then you must put a G4 P0.1 after it. this forces GRBL to sync and wait for the EEPROM write...
always the same side that loses steps... then it might be the driver chip. test this by swapping the 2 Y plugs on the BB (power off first!) ....
as to how to, the actual process of trying higher speeds, I find a binary search to be the quickest. this means doubling (of halving) for each...
Hi Martin, Setting the speed higher will not blow up anything so no need to worry there. if the step rate is too high for the motors they will...
I think Windows is putting the USB port to sleep (or it is electrical interference) Disable all power saving features. Go to Windows Settings,...
