Hi Mac,
Thank you for the kind comments. Yes I did read your post from beginning to end and I must say I got most of my inspiration from that post. I don't believe my machine would have worked out...

Hi vtxstar, Your machine looks good too.
Although the original design was a bit small for my desires, I liked the idea of having a contained envelope for machining. I have my dust collection in...

Hi frunple.,
I am working from memory here so you will have to verify. As I remember when I wired my super pid to my Ess, the PWM signal comes out on pin 14 on the first port of the Ess. It...

I believe that I would go ahead and put the spring in it, if one was at...

Hi Guys,
After almost a year of part time building, My expanded Momus build is now up and running. My thanks to all the posters here in this forum for the inspiration that their efforts provided...

Pin 8 on the Gecko is for driving a VFD specifically. As I understand it It takes the PWM signal from Mach and outputs it as a control voltage thru an optoisolator. The manual says not to cross wire...

I get 2.4v and 5000 rpm on any setting in Mach

I have a Super PID, Gecko G540 and an ESS on my machine.
While wiring it up for both manual and Mach 3 control I managed to connect the wires from pin 8 and 9 reversed . I have since discovered and...

I am currently gathering parts for my Expanded Momus build and thought I would share a few suppliers with other builders in Canada that McMaster Carr will not sell to.

Before I found out that MMC...
