Everything is fine!
Will wear the #64 proudly. Using a Mechmate is now my priority, I already routed couple of sample cabinet doors, now I need to find some woodworkers to cooperate with. Thanks everyone for compliments, I look forward to helping the community as you all guys helped by putting so much information on the forum! |

As the business with the mechmate expands, using some sort of pendant is a must. After using gamepad, and some joystick emulator I made with custom housing I decided to try with pokeys55. Will post some pictures and progres I have made using it.
Also besides regular daily production of plywood toys recently I had couple of interesting jobs on kitchen doors and other. |

Here is the kitchen door set I did, it consisted of 18 different doors.
Next one are pictures of my pendant in progress, the box is a temporary solution to find best fit for buttons and switches, no room for MPG. It will be in next one. MPG is made from old floppy drive stepper motor with use of some op-amp, schematic that worked best for me is here to download: SCH : floppy encoder schematic BRD : floppy encoder board You will need Eagle 5.10 to open it And here are the images. MPG is working perfectly on recent tests. Velocity mode is great so as the multistep. The knob on motor shaft will be made more massive as it helps improve "feel" of detents. |

Looking great...will they be on sale soon ?

I have not thought about manufacturing them yet. But if I get to make a mold for the back case nothing is impossible. For now its 50mm foam with acrylic 3mm faceplate but very rigid and immune to falls and hits.
Anyone interested in dwg, dxf and aspire file can send me his email. |

Its using Pokeys55 with mach plugin. Nice device but it really helps to have knowledge in mach3 brains. So its a USB device, some days ago they released Ethernet version.
It will have a 4 lines with 20 characters LCD ( 4x20 hd44780 ), basically it has all the functions as ModIO board. this is the image of 4x20 lcd that modio and pokeys can use, you can display two informations per line so its 8 data positions as I understood. http://www.machsupport.com/forum/ind...ttach=86;image |

Some more work today, 3 guitars cut (telecaster), two of the body's are oak and one is dark walnut. guitar necks are from swamp ash. will post a video of machining later.
Oak was darn hard to cut, but the winner is china spindle and mechmate. Also made some clamps from 19mm MDF, they are absolutely FANTASTIC and work great, I will be making some fixture to host them permanently in T-track. clamps are from here http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:776 |

Hi Danilo
A Pointer (or maybe a retriever) and a Scotty, how very creative. I assume you are going to put an acrylic side on them to test the young savers patience. Regards Ross |

yes sides are acrylic, its prototype for organisation which is raising funds for abandoned dogs shelter.

Theater decor work, tarp ploting
These are some items for theater decor elements. I was also asked to cut shapes out of tarp but easy way was to use mechmate as large ploter with pen and mark the shapes to cut with scalpel, it worked very well.
Here are some pictures Tarp: Acrylic 3mm 12mm plywood (1220 x 2400 mm) |

Hey Danilo
I not see your old images. One question about your drivers. I see This Image about your drivers connections, and my question is: where is the diference between PC Gruwnd, Logic Ground and Motor Ground. Im thinking, the PC cable, 25 pins is shielded and connect between the pc and the Breakout board, this Ground is PC and connected to the żPC chasis?. The Logic Ground is between Driver and Breakout Board or between Driver and Motor. Im thinking the Motor Ground is between motor and General Ground. Regards and good work. |

old images were on my old site which is not online anymore, I can not edit older posts but will ask mike to see how can I edit links to them.
I have my BOB 12V power supply, drives logic 12V and PC's gnd together, motor power is from another source but motor gnd and drives logic gnd is connected on the drives board, so everything is tied together and share same gnd. It serves me well that way. There are optocouplers on the drives and proper way should be to put separate power for pc & bob on one side and drives on other. I have bought new drives guerd87 they are 2M982 7.8AMP drivers and will rewire the whole cabinet and separate everything. Problem is that mardus kreutz are unipolar and they do work perfect but give 40% less torque for same amount of current. I am sometimes pushing the machine very hard and my current is at maximum of 5 Amps for these motors, and that causes heating. As I want it to run for 8-10 hours that became problem and that is the reason for replacing the drives. They will find their place on a smaller machine which I previously built. |
