I've been gathering parts and pieces for a 3D printer for a while. Then I saw a
review on Hackaday of the Monoprice Select Mini 3D printer. Inexpensive but
quite well built.
A few weeks later, I decided just for the heck of it to see if jet.com had
anything for 3D printers and they had that prin

250 responses, 24% low-level controls, 30% of that LinuxCNC.
That does suggest that 7% of all CNC controls are LinuxCNC.

I once got the parameters for the servos wrong and indeed the whole machined
rocked.

OK this seems to be better - I would see what will happen when real cutting
will take place - or how will plasma be resilient to still existing cut
velocity fluctuation.

Setting up the 5i25 or 6i25 with a 7i77 is definitly not turnkey unless you

Hi All,
I agree with the conclusion that LinuxCNC rocks. Most, if not all,
functionality you want is there and you just need to tap into that.
However, the main obstacle I see is the very steep learning curve for
tuning the software to fit the particular setup.
This is the ever recurring problem

Yes, that is what codes M62 to M68 do:

Bob Warfield's comments on his survey are interesting, and perhaps give some
clues as to the way things are going.
Firstly, he notes that the rise of popularity LinuxCNC coincides with the
creation of PathPilot. No surprise there, in the sense that PathPilot has
brought associated publicity.
