Did you just post the exact same thing to five separate threads?

Otherwise, you can try using Grbl's dynamic laser mode that modulates laser power with acceleration. To use it, command an M4, rather than an M3 to power up your laser. Or, use a CAM program that accounts for the acceleration by adding some overscan distance. Just to clarify, dynamic laser mode was...

Is motor torque a limiting factor on a stock SO3, or is it dwarfed by machine flex, belt stretch, or some other factor?

Those look amazing!

I've been considering a similar jig for carving custom dice.

It's easily the best upgrade I've made to my machine, especially given the relatively low price.

Congrats! I know you've been working hard on it.

AFAIK the last official word on Carbide 3D's Grbl v1.1 plans was this blog post.

Ok, questions. Probably due to my still-considerable ignorance in electronic matters. 1. That hall effect sensor works at a fairly wide range of 3.8V to 30V. Why are you running it at 24V, rather than the 5V the Arduino is able to interface with directly? 2. Is the optocoupler just being used as a 2...

As a free OnShape user I probably should have a big problem with this, but I really don't. Anyone selling a free/premium app has to come up with a solid barrier between the two tiers, and "needs private documents" is a much more natural barrier than "needs more than 10 private documents and/or more ...
