I ordered the kit and controller directly from V1E, it arrived within a week. I built a 4x6’ torsion box, giving me a 3x5’ build area. For consistency I purchased 1x4” primed molding, then used a 1/8” dado to glue up
I was dissatisfied with the suggested wiring solution and ended up using 2 stranded Cat5 cables, soldered to the Y-Max end. At one point I corrupted the configuration and had to remove the controller from it’s housing to reflash. I installed a 90 usb C adapter and a 2” hole in the controller for easy access. I also decided to keep the 24V supply off the gantry as the low voltage lead was plenty long
I like the look of your display…I’m sure we are on there somewhere. Vessel Traffic Services will call if they don’t see our transponder, and even my wife can look and see if we are working a job or at the pier.
Looks good! I keep thinking maybe I need to make the beam a standard material size to make this sort of stuff easier. MDF if perfect for the job but aluminum looks cooler!
My work boat gets tracked this way
Looks like a view from Lummi Island?
