I have been working on putting together a CNC controlled G0704 since the first of the year or so. I held off purchasing the electronics until I got my hands on the machine. Time kept dragging on and I got tired of waiting. I ordered everything on my list, and all of it finally arrived. I used the time to start learning to write some G-code, set up the electrronics, etc. After a 2 1/2 month wait, the machine finally arrived at Grizzly in Muncy Pa.
After cleaning all the preservative stuff off, I am putting it back together, slowly, anyway. I have the electronic controls box mounted and tested. I got the X and Y axis motors tested for function. I am in the process of putting the Z axis together. Hopefully I will be able to test run it this evening.
I still need to add a home switch setup. I have some micro switches, but am considering using proximity sensors instead.
I need to take some pics to add to the thread.
