admin

March 1, 2023

When you first get a new CNC router, it is important to make sure it is set up right. You want to run a break-in cycle to make sure everything is settled in. Otherwise, there may be some parts that are not tightened down properly.

This video shows you how to set up your CNC router to break your new CNC router in, and how to write the gcode to do it. this video is beginner CNC router owners. This is the first step of CNC router maintenance

In case you are wondering what is g code, this video will show you how to write gcode for your CNC router to run this cycle.

Once you run a breakin cycle, you will find that some things need to be tightened or adjusted.

This video was shot with the Longmill CNC router

Here is the download link for the g-code to the Longmill 30×30 CNC router

CNC Router Glass Etching w/ Widgetworks Diamond Drag Bit Engraver Project – Garrett Fromme

admin

February 3, 2023

This video shows you BobsCNC CNC router engraving on glass using a diamond drag engraving bit.

how to engrave (etch) on glass and soft metals on a CNC router using drag bit engravers. It also shows you how to set up the CNC router for engraving the glass and what engraving tools you will need. Engraving n glass is very different than carving. In fact, some projects can only use this method. when you don’t have an engraving machine, a CNC router works just as well.

Etching with a drag bit is much easier and less messy than wood carving. There is glass dust but it remains very close to the etch line. A quick vacuum cleans it quickly.

This method also works with brass, aluminum, and any other soft metals.

It is STRONGLY recommended to use a spring-loaded drag bit when engraving on glass with a CNC router. This eliminates possible variations in pressure that can break the glass. It also is very forgiving for a spoil board that is uneven…you can have 0.25″ variation and will still get a good project without damage or glass breaking.

Glass engraving can be done on any CNC router. This job was done on a BobsCNC evolution 4 (evo4)

If you own a CNC router, please take this survey: https://bit.ly/3r5XzNh

CNC settings for the diamond drag bit:
→ Spindle remains off
→ the tool is setup as an endmill in the tool library
→ Feed 30 inches per minute
→ Depth of cut 0.05 to 0.1 inches

If you search Amazon for a spring-loaded drag bit, you will find one that is not Widgetworks brand. DO NOT BUY THAT ONE IF YOU WANT TO ENGRAVE ON GLASS. The ratings repeatedly say the tip breaks on glass and other hard materials.

However, it does have good ratings for acrylic. Here is the link: https://amzn.to/3bgWiwK

Why Your CNC Router Randomly Stops In Middle Of Projects [You'll Get It] – Garrett Fromme

admin

November 28, 2022

I have seen this happen on BobsCNC router…since I have one. It may happen on other CNc router brands as well. It is not Universal gcode sender! It is a power spike.

The way to fix the router stopping in the middle of a job is to surge protect the CNC router control module.

This is the surge protector I recommend in this video: https://amzn.to/2QNwKB2

This video explains why your CNC router suddenly stops working while cutting a project. It is not because of the controller software like universal gcode sender (ugs) or mach3. It is because the cnc router control is not spike protected. I have seen this happen on BobsCNC router…since I have one. It may happen on other CNc router brands as
