Yes you can set up a Jackpot on a LR2, I’m 99% sure the LR2 and LR3 run the same firmware. As far as your CAM I’m not sure on that one. The Jackpot is GRBL/FluidNC not Marlin so I would assume your post processor would have to change.
My LR3 yses mostly recycled LR2 parts. I had endstops on my LR2.
The Jackpot will do just fine, I think. There must be a postprocessor that works for GRBL, and therefore for FluidNC. A little difference in work flow, but dual endstips.will do that too.
99% of the commands are the exact same as Marlin’s, for some reason the homing is different. I am sure there is a reason Marlin strayed from the GRBL standard but it seems odd to me.
Roger that. I know some have pushed the LR3 from using 150mm linear rail to 200mm. I would think you would have to go to around 350mm linear rail to maintain 10" of travel. that’s a lot! I would think you would have to go wider to go that much taller with the YZ plates. Would be interesting to see that’s for sure.
So you only need 4+ inches of travel. You table base just needs to also be the endmill length away, Drop table. A 10" (meaning 10" endmill) travel on either machine is horrible and I am sure barely works. If you just make your work surface one endmill length away you will find you can probably move 3x as fast.
Edit: I used 1" .065 wall tubes, so if you use conduit, you will need to edit the tube plugs a little to adjust the diameter to match your rails. The Y and Z switch holders should fit for any version.
