For anyone interested
I am not using the maslow firmware but I would like to.
I am using
easel inventables
3 nema 17 with 27:1 gearbox (amazon) 2 for corners 1 for router
My router and plate is aprox 10lbs maybe a little more. at 500mm per min no steeping issues.
3d printed motor supports for 2x4 arms
1 nano cnc v4 board (amazon)
ring mounting kit for the router.
standard gbrl 1.1 (not modified!) I set the motors to not power down ever.
Even with motors powered down if the sled is stopped in the middle of the board it will not creep.
I park my g code in the middle when done.
I do the kinematics conversion in a separate program. I am adding minimum segment length to manage straight lines over distance.
I wish there was an option to do steppers in the maslow firmware. I am not good enough with code to add the option.
but for now I can get it to work.
