It has been a while since I have posted an update to my Masso G3 enclosure build and 1F CNC modifications, but I now have something to share that may interest others. With respect to the electronics, I have made my homing sensor cables, and added a relay module which at the moment uses the ES (Esto…

I am always happy to help out. Perhaps breaking it down into steps/parts is best. Is your main goal to add a rotary A axis? If yes, is it a vertical application like mine for a tangential knife? If you want this type of knife you could try a drag knife first. There are many forum members using th…

My goal is to use rotary like pictured in the picture that looks like a lathe how can I do this using current 1f if that Is possible without buying new controller cool

The good news is that it has already been done and proven to work by at least one member of this forum. I believe they used it for engraving a bottle as it turned on the rotary axis. It requires the disconnection/disabling of one of the axes, the Y I believe as only Z and X axis motion is needed alo…

Yeah Rodger has done it I have done it also It works only with Engraving with the laser with the jtech laser but as far as carving with a bit and the Z axis moving an X axis moving could not figure out how to change the coding as far as I know no one has done that yet [Message_1626128877328]

[image] Worth the Price? / Rotary Axis Setup J Tech Laser Roger, I’d really like to see how you set the rotary up, especially the controller changes needed. It was in this post towards the bottom that talks about that setup.

I would be surprised if you couldn’t edit the post processor for vcarve and use it with the rotary. I mean they are wrapping the Y axis in their PP for the demon controller just like I did for the laser. So I would think you would be able to do some tinkering with the PP for vcarve to get it to work…

That’s what I was hoping I’ve spent plenty of hours trying to Tinker with it when I run G-Code the rotary attachment just kind of jitters can’t seem to get it I have been looking at the demon controller thinking of attaching that I would gladly pay someone if they could figure out the post processor…

I’ll try and get out there tonight or tomorrow and fool around with it and see if I can come up with anything. It’s been flooding here recently so it’ll depend on the weather and if it’s lightening. But if I get something working I’ll report back to you
