Is buying a machine like that really worthwhile?
Socialist design never impressed me; delivered in bad crate even less.
My experience with Chinese made lathe was so bad I would never buy from
them again. When you see it from close and start using it

I'd be interested in that one as well. I've a job that subbing the

It sounds like it came with a bunch of decent parts. Panasonic servos

Some Chinese motors are little better than scrap, others are fine.
The thing that would concern me the most would be the weldment base

If that base is not square and flat, and the rails parallel

Timing belt. Lots of ways to use 'em. 2 from 1 motor, or 1 continuous.
Very reliable. Very robust. Size them properly and keep them tensioned and

The machine is one that has had a problematic (under engineered drive train)
from the get-go. It is an 8 spindle gang router for wood carving, with a 12ft
long gantry that has about 5ft of travel (Y-axis). Even though the X is on a
12ft gantry it only has a little over 3ft of usable travel.

I'm pleased to announce that Robert Ellenberg's new trajectory planner
has been merged into LinuxCNC. It is in the master branch, aka 2.7~pre,
what will become 2.7 later when it's released. It will be part of build
v2.7.0-pre0-550-gd699a06 and later. The new TP is not in 2.5 or 2.6,
those will

Great to hear that it's in. Looking forward to using it.
Just a couple of questions, have the necessary config changes to use it been
added to the documentation?
If someone doesn't make the ini changes will the old strategies still used then?

works although most of my programming is pretty short and sweet LOL. peace
