A BeagleBone Black will run MachineKit "off the shelf". Ha ha. Actually what the BBB needs is something similar to the Replicape and the Manga Touch Screen but running MachineKit for a simple Sherline or other small Mill. A display something like a DRO with large characters, a few buttons and menus. Then it would be more than fast enough. Of course by the time I get to that the BBB will be extinct... 8-( John > Arduino Uno > Arduino Mega > 8 x Arduino Nano > 2 x MicroView (Arduino built in to a display) > 2 x ItsyBitsy M4 (Arduino Nano form factor, 120MHz Cortex M4 with > floating point support and 512KB Flash and 192KB RAM) > > And I have never done anything much with any of them. > > > -- > atp > "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is > designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and > lunatics." > � George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 > > > _______________________________________________ > Emc-users mailing list > Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
