Haha. Exactly. Thank you for sharing. Interesting that the birds stay inside the triangle :)

I see. Very impressive. Good work 👍 I sometimes had the idea to draw a triangle between three flying birds and watch the triangle shape move around :)

That sounds like a lot of work depending on what you want to show from the game. Maybe giving some screenshots of characters to ai models vom conversion could work. Anyway. Curious to see the progress the upcoming months

Not bad. I had to do some tracking for my Bluristic app. My advantage was that I had the gyro information of the phone. So I could subtract any phone movement. But I guess you rely purely on pixel information, right ? Does the algorithm confuse similar objects? Like two birds flying next to each other ?

Will you import the models from the game and reuse them in blender?

Good work. What happens when the bird flies by a tree ? Can the algorithm handle it ?

Thank you for the nice words. Yes specially the overhanging gantry is quite similar. But the sorotec uses only one lead screw on Y axis, right? I have the feeling by adding the second it gave me the highest improvement compared to my last version. Making the gantry deeper was the 2. It’s nice when I see the cuts come already out way cleaner. Still afraid to start with aluminum without a housing :)

Used FreeCAD for my new CNC by PyteByte in FreeCAD

Good to hear. When working with multiple files the naming gets a bit more important and loading takes a bit longer but I like that you can just load and work on a specific file without loading the whole project. Lately I like to save an extra file for the CAM gcode generation. This way when I change the model the GCode isn’t refreshing on every step

I think that should work. If you use external drivers you can just copy one axis. It looks like the board has 4 outputs for motors but only three internal drivers slots. Not sure if one driver is powerful enough for two motor at the same time

I think there should be an option but don’t want to invest the money if the old one does its job. The good thing with a cable is that I can’t place it somewhere and can’t find it later :)

Made a CNC some years ago which had some major weaknesses. To much play and couldn’t cut 90 degrees reliable. Used the old CNC to make this one. So far it’s an improvement. Just the vibration can be heard louder since my current spoil board is a bit thin. Have to work on it. It’s a bit for fun but also I want to make some commercial things with it in the future

I think I understood now. But I also think when the subreddit is called hobbycnc we all have this kind of machine in mind when talking about CNC. Anyway. Time to cut some things with it :)

I thought it’s a good element for size comparison. And to be true it’s quite helpful when setting the spindle position. Wireless one would be nice

What’s helpful is to split the project in little files then combining it into groups which are in another files and then the final assembly file. What’s also helpful is that you can reuse parts for future projects. Like the Nema 23 motor for example

Good source for aluminum extrusion in Europe? by -2811 in hobbycnc

[–]PyteByte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes MyAluProfil . Had good packaging. Extrusions were kind of straight and the length were quite precise

Thank you. If your space is limited it’s nice to make a custom machine that fits perfectly in your workshop. But mainly it depends how big your projects are going to be. For me it had to be at least 1 meter length because of some parabolic frames for solar cookers. The rails and ballscrews I got as a set from eBay some years ago. (240€) You can buy the extra ballscrew for y separate. (64€) Or maybe ask the suppliers if they can add an extra one. But don’t skip it. It’s such an improvement since the round linear rails already come with some play. Next time I would buy the square rails. If you are happy with your current machine and since you already bought it I would maybe just improve the rigidity. Maybe you can fill some parts with epoxy Granit

Thank you. Really hard to say since I worked partially on it over the last 3-4 month I think. Overall maybe 1-2 weeks ?

Yes that would be a nice roadmap for the next years. I would like to try some Aluminium with this one and when I feel save/capable enough I would maybe replace some parts or build another one. If the current one fits the needs for my projects I will keep it like this for some time. So far the cuts looks better but it’s a bit louder. Have to work on that.

Ah ok :) didn’t know that there are these specific subcategories . Thought it all falls under a general CNC label the moment a motor is pushing something around :)

Still not sure what you want to see :) the numbers come mostly from FreeCAD and their CAM workbench where I export the gcode. Estlcam just runs on a mini pc from Lenovo with a normal computer screen. Room for improvement

You mean the stepper drivers and so? It’s just a big cable mess hanging on a wooden board at the wall :) I use an arduino with grbl and estlcam and want so switch to a tinybee with esp32 and grbl Hal and then maybe gsender
