Notes

TPU Filament

It's only used for the machine feet. Maybe you can source suitable replacement parts.

Drivers

Use drivers that are suitable for your motor needs. Make sure to match your motor phase current to your driver max RMS current.

XY and Z Gantry Plate

Warning

These parts can be printed, but are a critical, load-bearing part of the machine. Any inaccuracy or weakness will be reflected in the accuracy and finish of the parts you mill, so bear this in mind.

You should buy these plates from one of the Kit suppliers above.

If you print them, they should be one of the first components you upgrade.

Wiring

Warning

Please consult your local guidelines for regulation wire size.

Ferrule Cable Terminations

Size and use where appropriate.

Epoxy Resin & Granite Sand

A mix of epoxy resin and granite sand can be used to fill the ballast box of your machine. This is optional, but can help to dampen excessive vibration.
