Homebrew PCBs

Hi,

Nice to see someone having a go.

Why would you gear the stepper motors 1:1 and introduce more backlash in
addition to the leadscrew nut?

Regards,

Terry


| Hi all,

| Having reached all the mechanical milestones for my CNC rig, and now

| A masterpiece of precision German/Japanese engineering it most certainly
| is *not* :)
|
| But it seems to be working well enough for my modest PCB requirements.
|
| Enjoy!
