websrvr,

What does leadership have to do with contributing to this thread?
Maybe whoever is contacting you for firmware believes you stole or misappropriated it.
The moderators are threatening...

websrvr,

If in fact you fail at anything it will be no fault of mine.
If the group wanted a leader don't you think by now they would have spoke up and elected someone other than Mihai.
Why is...

websrvr,

Are you asking me or the group if your contribution to this thread is productive?
Are you asking me or the group if the thread needs a project leader?

KOC62,

There are literally thousands of people using the Gecko G540 with steppers very successfully. Why squander money if you don't need to?
By the time you build what Websrvr is promising you...

WOW James Newton is all ready backordered!

Mihai has and will help if he is treated with respect, regardless of what others are suggesting.

I feel exactly the same.

How one person perceives another is based on the interaction they have with you and the interaction that you have with others, I was trying to change my...

websrvr,

My pal, JoeyB told me you would really enjoy the Massmind Open Source Servo Project. I disagreed with him however he was spot on.

Just in case you didn't see the size of the motor Massmind posted another interesting video of this open source drive putting out 1/2 horsepower!

Some users that don't have the skills to build a kit might be interested in the Lichuan closed loop LC57H380 & LCDA357H motor and drive.
Each set cost about $120.00 and the performance is very...

Take a look at this if you have more interest in the inexpensive encoder solution:

KOC62,

No worries, just wanted to give credit where credit is due. :)

James Newton is not the originator of the project however he is rolling out a inexpensive kit (Target price less than $40.00 including a encoder) maybe a high power version is on the...

Projected cost for a complete servo drive with encoder $40.00

This might peek someone's interest. There is a Open Source d.c.servo project on hackaday complete with firmware and a inexpensive encoder that may be a good fit for a Taig sized machine.

Brad43,

After being a member of the forum for less than a day how and why have you come to the conclusion that this thread needs a project manager?
There are already several moderators here...

Brad43,

If you have read the entire thread you might have determined that Mihai is fed up with the attacks from dwlash62 and his associates (members pretending to be someone else).
In private he...

Celebrating sounds like a good idea, I would enjoy buying everyone a beer!

Websrvr,

Your information and statements about me are flawed and fictitious fabrication based upon your imagination.
Time will tell if Mihai returns. Now why don't you follow through with your...

Websrvr,

I neglected to mention Mihai is not missing in action. He checked in here at the CNCZone yesterday, if you don't believe that check his personal profile!

Websrvr,

Maybe once you actually permanently leave Mihai the genius and founder of the project will return. Then the project will graciously continue to move forward with marked progress.

Websrvr,

Many of us are interested in this project and have valid serious questions.
Why is it that when we ask something that you don't like, you resort to belittlement?
Who put you in charge...

jfong,

Excellent advice, I will heed your warning and hold off on investing in this project until there are working open source examples posted and shared.

websrvr,

Thanks for the generous offer however I will look elsewhere for a more viable solution.

KOC62

As far as I am concerned this is not a trust issue, it would be nice to see the quality of the finished board is that not a lot to ask for?
Secondly, this project is supposedly open...

So you are suggesting we send money to someone for a product sight unseen? That doesn't sound very appealing, can't you show us a picture of the board you have in your possession so we can evaluate...

websrvr,

Please post a picture of the board you are selling, I might be interested in purchasing a few dozen.

How much would shipping cost to Saginaw, MI 48608?
Thanks,

Man that is nice, do you have any more pictures?
