After a long time I continued with my chinese CNC1610.
- Installed stock GRBL 1.1f on the Woodpecker pcb
- Added limit/homing switches
- Tested z-probing
- Great machine with LaserWeb4
It turns out that the Woodpecker pcb that is part of the kit contains an Arduino Nano with bootloader. So I installed GRBL from https://github.com/gnea/grbl and it runs perfectly fine, also with LaserWeb4
And: the Woodpecker CNC has a connector where most of the Arduino pins are available. Pictures below show how I used these to connect limit/homing switches to the machine.
The Arduino A5 pin is also available on the connector to mount a cheap chinese probe, which also works nicely.
Still having to get more experience with real processing, but the basic machine is now almost ready to go. Hope this gives others some inspiration!
