hello matt I have an error when running the pyhon program. Exception ignored in atexit callback: <function check_all_passing at 0x000001EA5F145C60> Traceback (most recent call last): File "E:\cekpcb\cnc_pcb_tools-main\cnc_pcb_tools-main\check_gcode.py", line 57, in check_all_passing raise NotAllPassingError('Some tests failed. (see above)') check_gcode.NotAllPassingError: Some tests failed. (see above) can you help me

Another no show

Hi brother can you give me your email

Hi Brother can i get you email i wnt to talk with you

I appreciate what you've done, it's small, but it shows the details that are really needed Looking forward to the next video, thank you very much.

I don't have a battery for mine. What's the polarity front vs rear of the drill?

Anything similar one could just buy? Thanks.

Great video.. What size battery and what are your flight times.

Thank you for this very helpful walk-through! It's great seeing someone's process from beginning to end. One suggestion, instead of having different offset versions for your heightmap, if you move the toolhead up to whatever offset you want and then zero your z to that height you should get the same result and there's far fewer places for something to go wrong.

Nice, thorough job! Thanks!

what type of engraving tools to make pcb?, what degree? (15, 30, or 60°?)

The fact that I've had a raspberry pi for like 10 years and I'm just getting into this now 🤦‍♂️

For a board of that low a part count I would just use a tooth pick and apply it manually. Especially if I'm only making one/a few boards.

I've literally been looking at doing this with brass shim stock! Do you think 0.5mm pitch pads will be alright? Actually going to try this period seeing as mylar is so cheap and no risk to the micro bits I was looking at for the brass!

Interesting. i only ever tried it with a cricut plotter. that also works with 0805 and similar spaced components but the cnc looks like it got way more accuracy than the cricut.

i would do it with a laser

Thanks for allowing me to thoroughly realize that my attention span sucks

What is the alligator clip for

You say cheap CNC ..how cheap?

Seems like hand etching would be a ton quicker for simple boards like the ones you show....this seems also like a ton of trial and error..and probably mostly error..

Love It!

I've fumbled through this process a couple times with mixed results. Your video is my new definitive guide for milling PCBs. I really appreciate the time you've put into helping me understand this process.

Do you know what size o-ring is used for the prop saver? I have the same plane, it's awesome.

I'm slightly familiar with Python, but I had a bit of trouble with your programs. Turns out that the scripts are very dependent on the fact that the origin is set exactly as you do in your video. I of course, had moved my origin to the bottom left-hand corner. I changed the location and all works, except for the 'Check_pcb_edge.py' where the cut through has to be less than -1.8 mm. 1.8 < 1.8 causes a fail of the test and prevents the 'test.nc' file being written. I fixed it by changing check.assert_gt('min_z', check.min_z(), 1.85) in the edge script. Working now, but thought others might have encountered this.

Thank you for an excellent description of the process for making a PCB with a milling machine! Your video, detailed write-up, and python codes are by far the best description I've seen. I strongly recommend your video and write-up to others learning the KiCAD, FlatCAM, and 3018 milling process with Candle.

There gotta be a better way than modifying the heightmap to adjust the doc.

Raspberry pi pico yes o no?

Very cool and well done done project. Would it be too hard to monitor cell voltages and balance them? Discharge them and the having to plug them into the charger to balance the individual cells is what is very annoying. Thanks!

Your plane was too far away, I say you fly a black DOT! Nice plane.

Thank you so much!!! It's the best pcb to cnc video I ever saw. It saved me days!

Hi

Cool, I am in Anacortes and thinking of picking up a Durafly

Did you make the printer?

This is exactly what I wanted to do minus the wood faceplate. Wouldn't you think just an RTC chip instead of GPS? Less of a hassle with code parsing and formatting code for your location. Less cost.. I'm going to try this in MicroPython. I did have a question with epaper refresh rate. If this uses obviously "time", then, the paper would be refreshed every minute? How often did you poll the weather for updates. Thanks for the inspiration for this project.

This is excellent! Thanks!

Very Unique and attractive 👍🏼 What display is this P5/P10??

super video, fajny tutorial

Great job!!

Very disorienting!!

Cool looking clock. Does it come in a kit.

can we also configure it as horizontally? as an open sources i think we can. from this we'll able to add more animation stuff. right?

I have something similar, but I use a different clock chip with an external interrupt pin. That wakes the MCU to update the display, then sleep. It means the MCU is in deep sleep with no timers running, and the clock chip uses a tiny amount of power compared to the MCU 😁

Great tutorial, just what I needed after destroying my first mills... Any advise on how to run the Python scripts on a Windows pc?

Did you say 2 min timer? That's way too short I can get 4 min with a 850 and I am on the throttle way more than this flight this flight was very gentle...as a maiden should be

Great video, outstanding. One question, have you share the files on Fusion 360? It would be a GREAT contribution.

Looks very elegant

Great project. I've seen your's on Instructables. I'll try to build myself one. Thank you!

Awesome video, thanks for making it! I used to document Arduino and woodworking projects here on YT and loved seeing how far the tech has come for makers like yourself!

Blew my mind. Trying not to feel shame for not thinking of this idea. It makes so much sense. I'm inspired to build a lil cnc for once.

Nice build. I've got a 4.7" epaper I'd like to try this on.
