I have a thread running in the Woodwork Forum about a router at my local Men's Shed that uses an Arduino with Grbl as the operating CNC driver, with Universal Gcode Sender on a laptop to command the machine.
We are having a ball getting it running and we are '' nearly there''.
This thread is simply to see if there are any others out there that would like to swap suggestions/advice/stories/warnings etc on this combination of hardware and software, or closely related.
Please, don't jump on me about your favourite packages or other suggestions for alternatives.
We have what we have, and the computer side of things is not our limiting factor, at least for the moment.
But, there are few 'interesting' things that are worthy of discussion.
John.
