Shapeko 2/ Xcarve using VSlot

Hi, I am new to the forum and CNC in general. I have been exploring to build a hobby CNC and after a lot of looking around, narrowed on Shapeko 2/ Xcarve type design. I wanted to check if anyone has built Shapeko 2/ Xcarve using 20x40 Vlsot? Other than simplicity, 20x40 & 20x20 is the only Vlsot available in my country, so the reason for choosing this design.

Comments/ thoughts appreciated.

thanks and regards

constant re-homeing between each job?

Have upgraded TinyG firmware but still unable to run a series of jobs without re-setting board, re-homing and re-G92ing. If I run a Vectric cut2d file (like below) twice, without rebooting board, on second run z axis moves up until trips limit switch. Any suggestions?

C-OX, how about mixing my OX with the new C-beam?

This has come about because I really want the new C-beam pate maker but I can't justify spending the funds and I really don't have the room for more cool stuff...maybe!
I've recently made my first 1/8" aluminum part, using my Ox, and it was slow going and rather noisy due too vibration in the Z/X axis. I figured this would be the case as they really are not, in stock form, meant for milling aluminum. Now, my 3d printer design is nearly complete and I need to start cutting the plates so I can...

Z axis rigidity

As I have started using my Ox (Cebu) more, I've noticed some flex in the z axis. At first I thought it was the x axis beams, and was planning to bolt them together. However, it seems like the x axis beams are fairly stable, and the flex is coming from the z axis components themselves. The z axis extrusion with motor on top can move back a bit without moving the x axis beams. The carriage wheels on the z axis assembly are quite tight against the x axis.

It looks like the flex is coming from...

Hi all,

I'm new here and also new to CAD software and I struggle to find my 'best' CAD software.
FreeCAD looks fine for me at this point and there are lots of 'tutorial' videos in the net, but I still not
get the workflow to work with the parts libary here from Openbuilds.

Do you have some documentation showing how to place and connect the parts to a working build ?

On a buzzword level, I think it uses contrains, but I failed to get even a V-Wheel with bearings, shim, screw, spacer etc. in...
