My first cut on the machine. Touch and go today.
Looks good. Z safe retraction issues?
@Dale_Royer probably. I actually have to check all the settings. I was just trying to get it through the cut without having the motors stall. I’ve got to go back and recheck all the settings. Initially, yesterday, I tried to use an edge finder to be precise and my spindle immediately goes to high speed and spun the spring right off. I’ve still got a lot of learning to do before I get my cuts precise.
@George_Allen what was your spindle speed through that? If it was going full speed I would have assumed some burning at that feed rate but i don’t see that…
I’m not sure of the rpms. I think I can get the spindle speed higher, but I haven’t looked into adjust it yet.
The last time I messed with the controls, I blew my spindle. I’m a little hesitant to adjust it.
Just interested. It looks surprisingly good the way it is.
Still work to do.
