Upgrade 1000mm To 1800mm X axis Rail

Sure. Took these today.

The Controller is a Arduino Due running a modified ver. of TinyG2 with a custom breakout shield so I can use external drivers. (ST-5045). The Steppers are NEMA 23’s (except the rotary axis which is a NEMA 17 (for now) rated @ 400oz-in. Induction endstops all the way around (MIN MAX). Acme screw upgrade for Z. The steppers drivers are ran from a 24V 15A PSU. The 12V PSU is for the Due, RPi B+ & LEDs. The SSRs are for the spindle, Vac and coolant. The Pendant is a XHC HB04. The Spindle is a DWP 611. The collet is from precision bits.

The PCB above is a logic shifter (12V to 3.3V) for the endstops.

It works pretty well. Still trying figure out how to use my Z-Probe which work with GBRL on TinyG2.
