If you swap positions on the rail, then the two long straight edges where the X-axis fits are the ones I suggested you check for parallelism and 90deg...

Hi Paul, Definitely worth going for UCCNC and UC100 interface in my view. Intuitive and easy to learn and can be customised if you so wish. Big...

I would recommend you do a more or less full mechanical assembly before wiring the machine - it's so much easier to get the tuning correct without th...

Hi Nitro24, With 84 holes to drill / mill, treat yourself to an 8mm end mill if you can find a collet to match for your spindle. Otherwise the spir...

Richard, Check you still have the correct profile loaded - if you machine originally worked (jogging) then you will have your license installed. U...

In my opinion the Y axis is very poor kinematically speaking - 16 possible points of contact to constrain movement to one direction. Theoretically one...

Sanity restored!! Manually added "/p abcde" and it all works as expected. It seems a new profile has to be created within UCCNC to get the " /p ab...

Thanks Rory - did as you suggest and everything works fine once the transferred profile is loaded - BUT - can't save it to be used at next fresh load ...

You can easily check and set UCCNC functions that operate from hotkeys!! On the UCCNC screen select "CONFIGURATION / I/O TRIGGER / HOTLEYS" to acce...
