One of my biggest gripes about the A350’s laser functionality is it’s inability to work on considerably larger than the bed projects. I’ve had multiple projects where I wanted to try and laser cut something, but since it’s bigger than the bed, there’s no way that the project could fit to even be don…

Fascinating possibilities, keep us posted!!

Great, I’ll be following this project with interest. Are you planning using the Snapmaker controller and modifying software or something else?

The current plan is to use the Snapmaker controller, I’m actually looking into just doing the wiring such that I can easily pull it off the A350 to move it to the rAy350. Hopefully this also reduces the fatigue of switching to laser requiring that I re-level the bed.

I also did such tests with older versions of linear modules and the Snapmaker controller but I got stuck because this controller expects homing in 3 axes before starting the project. The Z-axis linear module must be connected anyway because information about the end sensors is sent via CAN …

I seem to recall somebody successfully building that device using the Original to make it more rigid for CNC. It was years ago though. My google-fu is failing me, and it doesn’t appear that I bookmarked it :frowning: It probably wouldn’t help you much though. The Original is a completely differe…

Yea, I think I saw that too, someone was controlling the original with an Arduino or something.

Figured out a good quick swap mechanism, and I’ve got the “quick controller” down too. Tomorrow is going to be testing day if I get time.

[Creating DIY CNC machines from Snapmaker 2.0 modules] I had a similar idea but my plan was to partially do the Ronin mod, then see if I can tell Lightburn there is no Z axis, just hand adjusted focus or see if I can find a simple manual screw z-height adjustment.
