the results on the wiki are my best 1 day run, i think they are marginal for stepper system the result on same box after that week run was unacceptable to me (>32K) the point is, testing is a good thing to do and to do well the result might not make you happy now\but it would make you ^%^% later ;) anyway, it takes no effort to let it cook while you plan the cnc you will hook up to a good unit let it cook and see what happens, if other's experience hold true, you'll have a certified emc2 box :) regards tomp ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
