Update

Image installed and successfully booted

I lost some time figuring out that I had written to an SD card partition
instead of the raw device...

Re: [Machinekit] VCarve "gcode sender"

[Chris Albertson]

I just asked this same question.   I wanted to do it for a different
reason.  I want to make a hand held CNC controller that sends g-code over a
serial link.  The answer is (some one will correct me if I'm wrong) "It can
be done but not out of the box"

But in your case I don't think you want to do what you describe because the
PC would have to keep the "print" job running until the CNC machine was
done.  Better I think if the file zaps over at high sped, the PC "thinks'
it is done and then the CNC machine goes on making the part.

If you want this to look like a printer then run a print server on the
Linux Machinekit machine and it will queue the print job on the Linux side.
  It is not hard to set up.  No reason not to queue up CNC jobs using the
standard UNIX print queue system.  It should work.

BTW, the 3D printer ecosystem has me spoiled.  There We can run a central
job manager that connects to multiple printers and we can sign jobs to
printers and monitor progress using a web cam.  There are a few good ideas
worth borrowing.

[Machinekit] VCarve "gcode sender"

[Richard Thornton]

Hi All,

Is it possible to "Output Direct to Machine" can machinekit accept
instructions from something like VCarve over the network, so you
design in VCarve and from the same windows PC print to the machinekit
(CNC)?

Thanks.

Richard
