Progress will be slow the next few days as I work around other projects.
I did sneak out to the shop on my lunch break and get a new build platform installed in the old enclosure. Had to bump up in length and width to fit the new feet. Luckily the enclosure is plenty wide for the steppers to still fit and run back and forth correctly (I think). I’m just hoping our test fitting last night was true.
I used 3/4" exterior grade plywood that I then sanded down so that I don’t get splinters. The spoilboard will be surfaced by the router, so this surface being perfectly flat is a little less of an issue.
I may end up needing to cut longer legs, though. I need to redo the math and make sure I have the clearance I want with the current legs.
I also have plans to move the existing power supply and on/off switch to a better location.
IIRC, those are M2.5 and they are for the endstops.
I don’t mind cold. I don’t mind precipitation. I don’t mind heat. I can’t stand wind and I can’t stand humidity. I’ve been acclimated by Colorado, I guess.
Ah. I’m not using endstop switches. I did use the end stops to keep the rails consistent, but I mounted them upside down so they hit the face of the trucks.
