Update 9/3/2020: I have since switched over to CNCJS after my Primo rebuild. I have an updated video talking about my reasoning and my workflow with CNCJS here: • MPCNC Primo Workflow U...
I wanted to make a quick video about my MPCNC workflow and why I use Octoprint for my MPCNC. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
Awesome setup! Great video.....Thanks
Congrats on the big day!!!
That is really great thank you! I'm always dragging my laptop around, the tablet is a great solution with the pi!
Nice work, congrats!
Thanks Brian, I use Octoprint for 3D printing and found your video when searching for CNC version of same. really well done. I like the Cricut tool too. Cheers, JAYTEE
love your setup I would love to get to a similar place! I run waterjets to pay the bills but I want a way to cut plastics and cf for quadcopter builds in my basement, your setup looks perfect and would go good next to my monoprice makerselect v2 and ender 3!!
Very nice setup.
I really like your power chain and rail. Can you do a quick video of the full cable management layout. Also what are you using for the bridge rail. Finally do you have links to the stl files for the rail mounts? Thansk
hey i got some of that Eryone PLA too on my Ender 3 lol, how do you like?
Most helpful, thank you - subscribed and hit the bell of course. Thanks for sharing! Cheers! JM
Thanks for the video. What are you running on the tablet? is that an Octoprint plugin?
Cool man I got my mpcnc together. Having trouble setting up the firmware for it those. Is it hard to set up the Endstop s and. Set that up in the. Arduino firmware i also gotta full-size Rambo
I just recently finished my MPCNC build, and this is incredibly inspiring!
I already have an Rpi to run CNCjs is there any reason you're not using that for your MPCNC?
I think I missed the memo on the stainless steel conduit. I decided to run the standard emt without doing much research. Oh well.. looking good though!
will octoprint work with the SKR pro 1.2 board. Love the simple interface you have on the tablet. Does the octoprint just connect via the USB plug ? I'm using Repetier now but getting lots of interference and lockups when spindle is turned on. having to print via the sd card instead.
Could you explain why you need/use printoid?
I wonder if there is a way to install a bl touch on a cnc
Can you please write the custom buttons in the Printoid ? Because i am sending G92 X0 Y0 Z0 but the program always starts at the Endstops .. But in the LCD Screen seems that the G92 works because it's showing X0 Y0 Z0 .
Thanks in advance
Thank you for sharing how you are controlling your different machines. I am curious to find out more about your 3D printer. Did you use the same one to print the MPCNC parts?
Thanks Brian! I have been debating whether to get the ready printed parts or first buy a 3DP and print the parts to build the MPCNC. And wasn't sure what type of 3DP to look for considering I am a total novice when it comes to 3DP and CNC but facinated by both :) When I have mine up and running I would love to pick your brains on how to connect the Rasberry Pi to the Rambo board. BTW, does it require any special programming to make it work or is it simply plug and play software configuration?
@@ProjectsbyBrian I see you have fitted the legs of your CNC to the spoil board which is mounted on the MDF surface of your table bench. I was curious to find out what is the material and thickness of the spoil board you have used and are the legs of the CNC screws into the spoil board? BTW, what are the dimensions of the tubes and the size of the workarea the CNC is able to travel.
Thanks, you have quite a large working area. What lenght are your metal conduits?
Nice setup man , where I can find the guides for how to integrate the pi with MPCNC? I would appreciate your help.
It would be nice to make video on how u integrate the pi and connected to mpcnc and the software
Thanks again sir
Brian R alright thank u sir for replaying I appreciate, and yes I found some video how to use the pi and octoprint . Am building my low rider now which would be 4’x8’ so it would be nice to have it in my phone and control it . Thank u and also check my channel I made lot of 3D relief with my MPCNC
Thank u and have a good day
What app are you using on the tablet?
Hi man! I have seen you are using the full rambo board. How did you set the E0 and E1 ports as X2 and Y2? I had to wire the two motors of each axis in parallel to make them move and I couldn't find the way to clone the X and Y movement to EO and E1 in marlin. Can you help me? I need that to set the dual endstops function
@@ProjectsbyBrian thank you man, I'll surely try that. Love your set up!
Is there any reason this wouldn't work with a laser engraver?
In some of the comments you answered that its just a plain octoprint install, are you using a plugin as well or did you have to set up everything custom? When I was first looking at doing this a couple years back octoprint didnt seem to support cnc machines ..
@@ProjectsbyBrian , Thanks for the reply, looking forward to seeing your video, I just got an Elegoo mars and decided I should upgrade the Anet a8, MPCNC with ramps & 3018 and found this video while researching for it. I'm leaning towards putting in the "Better Grbl Support" plug in on octopi for the cnc's. Have you tried "Klipper" for the printers? I'm wondering if it would be worth trying to use on the MPCNC. Thanks again...
@@ProjectsbyBrian Klipper does the bulk of the calculations on the pi then just has the printer board run them as events, seems to be smoother and faster, it runs as a octopi plugin. www.klipper3d.org/Features.html
What kind of tablet is that?
What firmware are you running on the controller board?
@@ProjectsbyBrian I looked it up on the v1engineering page: By default, Marlin seems to be on the board. So probably that is what you've got. I was wondering about that because many CNC controllers are running GRBL and didn't know how well octoprint would support it.
do u use a GRBL board for you MPCNC?? cause How do i put octopi onto my GRBL board??
@@ProjectsbyBrian ok I tried that but it gives me an error in the octopi page..
Yo how can I DM you, I wanna add Octoprint to my Cnc plasma table.
I would probably check out CNCjs instead of Octoprint. I actually switched to CNCjs about 6 months after making this video. Of course, I can't say for sure what will work best with your workflow, but something to consider.
