The Shapeoko Forum

Hi! I need two small parts milled from Delrin, and I was hoping I could pay someone who already has Deblrin on hand to do that for me. Here's a link to a blog post that details the conversion I want to do: https://0xfred.wordpress.com/2012/04/17/extending-the-mf70s-y-axis/ One piece is roughly .6" t...

Ok, it's an issue with the older version of UGS I'm using on an old Mac. Opening it on my PC in UGS 2.0 seems to solve it. Thanks for your help!

I seem to have messed something up somewhere, because when I open the NC file in UGS I get crazy arcs. I used the shapeoko2 post processor file a forum user provided. There don't seem to be any settings regarding arcs in this file. I have also tried the Mach3 file with Radius both on and off. Any th...

Here's the screencast. It took a long time to process and upload. As powerful as the "Cloud" is, it's friggn' slow sometimes. I made a number of mistakes, hopefully they'll be obvious enough to ignore. I was interrupted a couple times and was sort of winging the whole thing, so please forgive those...

I also discovered that my Z axis wasn't up in the model I linked to above. Apparently changing that in preferences doesn't alter existing models.

You could do a facing operation to take off the 0.35mm, but that would obviously take a long time with a ball end mill. Als...

Hi! I'm hoping some other Fusion 360 users can help me out here. I've designed a model in Fusion, and I can't seem to figure out how to create the correct toolpaths in the CAM section. I want to cut it out of baltic birch plywood 1/4" thick. The model is set to be 1/4" thick. Screen-Shot-2015-07-04-...

I've used http://reprap.org/wiki/CNCGcodeController to control a rev d printrboard. It only worked once I flashed a firmware that was older than the unified firmware they use now. By worked I mean I loaded a job and was able to run it, but I didn't have any motors hooked up. Prior to that I always g...
