This was a great video, very well laid out. I have one huge suggestion, almost a request. Add 2 axis stepper control with Grbl and one servo for pen up/down for those that are looking to build a plotter. There are literally zero videos out there explaining how this works or how to do it and the way you did this video would be perfect for that. Please consider doing this, I can almost guarantee that video will get a massive amount of views and it’ll help a ton of people. Thanks for the video 🍻

Incredible video! Is there any reason related to the circuitry that you chose to build the machine with the dimensions that it has? Would the machine be just fine if it was say four times the size and do you have any tips for a larger build and what is required to handle a higher power spindle or can a higher power spindle simply be interchanged without any other circuitry changes?

I built the frame that size for a specific application. For the video I removed the specific mechanism and focused on the CNC GRBL basics. Had I just made it larger, it would have worked just fine. I would take the spindle output of the CNC Shield and feed it to a motor controller appropriately sized for what you are trying to power up (basically use the CNC as the digital signal to control the spindle's motor driver). Obviously power up the spindle motor controller based on its own set of requirements. Additionally, note that the linear bearings, shafts, etc, need to be sized appropriately, meaning all those have a max recommended load, so don't exceed those.

Hey man! I loved the video! I've been dreaming up an idea to work on out of my garage by creating a dispensing cartesian machine. I've gone over your blog and this video, but I need some help with the basics of mechanical assembly. Do you have a video of your mechanical build? If not, would you have like 30mins to do a Zoom or Teams call for some pointers? I would really appreciate it! I am in a pickle right having been laid off a few days ago and I'm really wanting to put some energy into this plan this week.

thanks fr explaining it really clearly for newbies like myself .. Very much appreciated man.. I'm attempting to rebuild my 1st attempt at a CNC home build but it wasn't working the way I had hoped. I bought the CNC shield with the 4 small steppers but I also have a kit of tb6600's with the nema 17's and nema 23's. I wanted to ask if it's ok to use the tb6600's with the Arduino? I'm a complete newbie to this whole electronics game but I want to build this CNC machine. It's only using 2020, 2060, 2080 extruded Aluminium but I'm hoping it's going to work fine for my 1st proper attempt. I'm going to use belts and pulleys for my 1st real go at this. Even though I know it's better to use Ball screws for better performance with the Linear rails but right now I have what I have and I ant to use the belts for now. Eventually I will buy the Proper ball screws and other parts to build a better CNC machine but for now the belts will hopefully work for now. I might need to use stronger belts in the future when I go bigger with the extruded Aluminium but for now I'm using what I have. When it comes time to rebuild it I will keep the parts for a bigger Laser

Hi, I'm new to GRBL. When I extract the grbl-master, the resulting folder does contain a folder by the name of 'grbl' but it is not a zip folder and so is not recognized by the Arduino IDE 'add zip library'. Please, any comments that may help me. PS. I used the link provided by you.

Thanks for all you are doing. I am confused about the second Arduino running custom code. The Arduino running grbl is connected to the computer. The second one, with the shield is not. Have you uploaded a custom code to the second Arduino to operate the dispenser motor? Would you please explain this and may be share the custom code? May be, I am missing something. Thanks much.

I think he meant if you want to have a arduino control stepper motors WITHOUT using GRBL you can still use the shield without have to connect to a PC with Universial Gcode sender. And in that case you write your own arudino program using the pinouts that the shield uses.

The A4988 is rated to operate between 8V-35V and can deliver up to 1 Amp without heat sink (or 2 Amps with proper cooling). The CNC shield allows you to run the A4899 to their designed levels,. 5 Amps might be enough depending on how many motors you are running and what the current load is at a given time.

This is a great video. When the probing command is sent to the arduino it moves the z axis and waits until the moment when a connection occurs between pin A5 of the arduino to GND. These pins (A4 and A5 are also used by the arduino for I2C communications).

Very interesting video! I'm curious to know how your "non Z axis" works. I made a CNC machine myself, many years ago (using a couple of 16F84), with a Z axis that could only go up and down to some predefined positions. It used two moving elements: a motor-controlled guide, and the spindle carrier itself. The guide could only grab the spindle carrier from its bottom to rise it, or go down to release it. When the guide was lowered to the defined position, the spindle carrier was allowed to freely go down until it reached the guide again (there was a sensor detecting it). I used this approach because one of the main purposes of that machine was drilling holes, and also because it was very rudimental. The spindle carrier was spring loaded, and I could adjust the force of the tool on the material by manually adjusting the spring... very rudimental, I know

If I click "open" with IDE 2.x then it does nothing else as open the folder in the file browser instead importing it. What can I do? Do I have to install the 12V on the CNC shield that the stepper could work or is just to test the USB power enough to rotate the motors?
