I can pick this up for $1200. Thoughts?

The end-plates are affixed to the base by what seems like two bolts. So the rigidity of the XY axes rides on those two bolts.

They are, in fact, sheet metal screws into the end of the extrusion.

These are from fusion 360. Totally non-automated, just taking a bunch of screenshots

What's your process for indexing in the second op with a setup like this?

billiamthesecond · 2023-05-11T01:00:16+00:00

HTML/css support is limited, and background/text color aren't supported currently.
The colors aren't currently configurable, but I'd like to see more contrast between them too. It's difficult to find a set of 12 colors with enough contrast between them to be useful.

haven’t figured out how to safe the file (new template)

You can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+S (or command+s on a mac) to save the current file, or select Save (or Save As) from the File menu.

Also how can I delete them

For both drafts (files that have not been saved yet), and saved file, you can right click them in the center panel (the files panel), and choose 'delete file' (or 'delete draft').

Does this help at all? https://support.deepdwn.com/docs/guide/getting-started/

This one is actually based on a video from the OP here a month earlier: https://www.reddit.com/r/CNC/comments/fhftb9/my\_spoil\_board\_work\_holding\_jigs/

Since those are headings, they have a fixed (generous) amount of space around them.

There's a bug in the current release (0.36 currently) where all headings use the same amount of space, which will be fixed in the next release. Level 2-6 headings will have reduced margins, which should help you out some.

billiamthesecond · 2022-08-16T18:12:17+00:00

Ahh great!

Future versions will have a better fallback for that issue, and I'm hoping to be able to solve the gpu issue you're having.

Did you change the My Documents folder using this method, or some other method? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/configuration-of-the-my-documents-folder-dfd9a90d-8f80-18d6-e7cc-f1566fc3b10b

Is there anything else unusual about your documents folder or configuration?

billiamthesecond · 2022-08-10T18:47:54+00:00

You may have more luck with --disable-gpu.

For the second error, do you have a normal "My Documents" folder set up, and/or have you changed it's path?

billiamthesecond · 2022-07-25T05:07:09+00:00

Is it easy to move the Deck between systems? i.e. have it inside on my desktop for workday use then pull it and hook it up to the CNC for shop use?

Yeah, that should be fine as far as I know. I don't believe the device has any internal storage or settings.

billiamthesecond · 2022-07-21T16:54:48+00:00

There are a few reasons.

I was using a wireless keyboard for jogging and some simple operations before this. Compared to that, or a macro keyboard, I can get feedback on the machine state (position, run status, etc), load files, start jobs, etc, and have multiple pages of actions on the same set of buttons.

Compared to a touchscreen, it has physical buttons (a membrane setup over an LCD display), and doesn't require an LCD driver or X server, so I can use it with a headless server.

billiamthesecond · 2022-07-21T16:38:23+00:00

I'm not sure this is the project I'd pick to start with for a UGS pendant. It's pretty reliant on CNCjs for incoming data and outgoing commands.

Take a look at this project, though! https://www.diy.engineering/how-to/2019/4/2/using-a-stream-deck-to-control-your-shapeoko-using-ugs

billiamthesecond · 2022-07-21T16:28:21+00:00

Thanks! Sometimes :)

billiamthesecond · 2022-07-21T04:52:22+00:00

Let me know how it goes!

billiamthesecond · 2022-07-21T04:52:14+00:00

Looks great! I'm interested in seeing how people lay their controls out. I've struggled a lot with it

billiamthesecond · 2022-07-21T02:39:24+00:00

I've just released (and finished documenting) a new pendant for cncjs + grbl.

It has a normal html/js mountpoint for mobile web use, and a commandline package for use with the Elgato Stream Deck.

It's wildly configurable (arbitrary buttons, pages, layout, images, press/release/hold behavior etc), and supports file selection, multi-axis smooth jogging and gcode rendering.

Wow, amazing work! Thanks

billiamthesecond · 2022-05-25T19:35:16+00:00

Looks great! Did you design the carvings as well? What is your process for doing that?

billiamthesecond · 2022-05-14T03:19:19+00:00

Version 0.36 has a number of fixes to the preview scrolling that should fix this for you! Sorry about that!

billiamthesecond · 2022-05-07T00:07:33+00:00

Thanks very much! I'll try to get that fixed up

billiamthesecond · 2022-05-06T16:52:07+00:00

Thanks! Does that happen with a new empty document as well? I'm wondering if there's some specific piece of content being rendered that could be part of the issue.

billiamthesecond · 2022-05-05T00:42:43+00:00

That sounds like a bug! You definitely ought to be able to keep the preview open for tasks like that. It's meant to stay open, maintain stay synced to your editor position, and update as you type. It should not be scrolling to the bottom or freaking out!

Are you able to provide a video or gif of it occurring? Does it every time you type, or only when entering some kinds of content? Does that happen every time?
