What I’ve been doing with my touch plate is I have the magnet on a bolt head at the base of the Y axis. It works since spindles are grounded to the machine, and I never forget the magnet, since I just leave it there all the time.

Your comment about knowing the decimal equivalents made me chuckle. I was a CNC machinist for 45 years and even now I do everything in decimal format. It is second nature and a lot easier than fractions. Looking to get a OneFinity machine soon to satisfy my lust of making things with a CNC machine again. Great videos by the way!
@LarsWorkShop 8 ай бұрын
😆, I know the feeling, both about decimal and needing a CNC. There is just nothing like coding, drawing or whatever and you can hold it in you hands. Thanks for taking the time to watch the videos, let me know if you have anything you want to see.

My very first drafting job (back in 1977?) was converting metric drawings to decimal inches - and the factor you either multiply or divide by, is 0.03937. Because 1" = 25.4mm

@@LarsWorkShop No - I have a PhlatBoyz PhlatPrinter III CNC that I cut a LOT of 1" x 2' x 8' foam sheets with, and built a full size electric car prototype - a foam plug with a windshield from a Smart Car, etc. I call it CarBEN, and I have a few videos of it on my YT channel. It has been sitting in my garage for 11+ years. I did a lot of G-code using DataCAD, SketchUp and a plugin from PhlatBoyz.

Awesome video Lars, I’m waiting for my Elite Wood worker and I wanted to familiarize myself with the masso. Your channel is my go to place to go for the Onefinity! I had 3 different Chinese cnc and where all returned. I am very nervous around cnc’s that probably a good thing. Thanks again. Cheers Mark

This is exactly what I need to learn about, at this point - thank you! Next big step for me, is hopefully using a DXF file (I have CAD drawings) of the pieces I want to cut, and importing it into Carvco, to then define the tool paths. I am trying to avoid having to redo everything. And I need to cut a clamping jig plate to easily repeat cutting panels. I am making flat packs for speakers, and I have the Baltic birch precut, so I only lose the 1/8" kerf; and use as much of the expensive sheet as possible. And also I don't have to handle full sheets - and I can cut them on my Journeyman Elite; rather than a much larger machine.

Neil, thank you for the comment and welcome to the channel. I have another video on making laterns that show how to convert files to dxf using convertio.co (not .com) and importing dxf into Carveco. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y698ZbuB2LevdXk.html A clamping jig is extremely smart way of doing repeat cuts of panels. Good luck and have fun!
@NeilBlanchard 7 ай бұрын
@@LarsWorkShop Thank you for the response - I can export DXF from DataCAD (which is the CAD program I use for my day job). Where is the import menu on Carveco? I saw something to do with vector files - is that it? I am now watching some of your other videos - and they are *very* informative and helpful. There is a lot of esoteric stuff with Masso that I am just beginning to learn about, and having practical hands on demonstration of these is invaluable to me, and I'm sure many others, too.

What do you think would be the best way to run a drag knife on the Masso without having the spindle take time to spin up ( it doesn't spin, I've got it set at one, it won't let you set it at 0) Also is there a way to have it go to work z zero, work origin goes to y and x but not work z.
@LarsWorkShop Ай бұрын
Welcome to the channel. I have never used a knife on thr masso. But drop that in the group, a hunch of folks have. Thr code should bring it to work z zero. Need to see your code

I have a basic problem - my Journeyman Elite jogs in the Y- and stops at about 20" back - but it says it is at 32.1259" And I can't get the PwnCNC spindle to spin up with the Masso. But it works manually.
@LarsWorkShop 7 ай бұрын
Did you home your machine when you booted up? Once you do the xy should say 0.000 and 0.000 z should be something around 5.000. Spindle spin up, that is odd. Are all of the cables connected in the correct holes. If so, send an email to support@pwncnc.com and someone will help you out in a jiffy.
@NeilBlanchard 7 ай бұрын
@@LarsWorkShop Yes, it homes correctly. And I had set up the parking in the back right, and it worked earlier on. But now somehow the "scale" of the Y/B axis is compressed by about 35%? I will email PwnCNC - thanks.

That is really, really odd. And you are manually moving the spindle with the controller? Not running gcode. Check this docs.masso.com.au/masso-settings/axis-settings I can check my settings in the morning for you.

OK - so I got some pics a just looking at some things, this is what i have on mine. After I homed my machine today the x was at -16.000 inches, this could be your issue, so I pressed the X on the screen to zero that out, rehomed all good. I sent you, I hope, some picture through messenger on Facebook. Hopefully there is only one of you, LOL. let me know if they help. BTW your cars and PEBL are really kewl!

Do you know that one can use the touch plate as a bit setter too? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b954abGFm9OqiGw.htmlsi=dBAjkOPrSDv9xgfE I am buying a Onefinity machine. And I looked at a lot of videos beforehand. This was one. By the way, Thanks for your videos. Very helpful. I still think that you should share the teflon spray lubricant. Research if you like, but anybody watching your videos for Onefinity info should realize they shouldn’t have to go through that extensive procedure to keep their machine(s) in good working order. I’ve seen silicon sprays recommended too. I don’t like to use silicon because it can interfere with applying finish if the silicon gets on the wood. Oil can too.
@LarsWorkShop 5 ай бұрын
I use my probe as a tool setter. Nice video really neat stuff. I am happy that you are enjoying the videos, it means a lot to me. I would love to share the Teflon as lubricant, but it is something that 1F has written about many times to only use 3N1 oil. Otherwise I would.

@@LarsWorkShop I read the lube recommendation from 1F. The objection seems to arise from dry lubes don’t provide protection for the bearings (I.e. rolling objects). The product I use specifically says it works for bearings so I sent them a message to see what they say…

@@LarsWorkShop The responded really quick! Hi Mark Thanks for your email. We have not tested this product and therefore cannot state how effective it is or what issues it may cause (if any). If you have used it on other machines without detriment, then most likely it will work on your Onefinity but we cannot recommend it. There are other dry teflon lube products that have caused bearings to seize and it can take a lot of effort to break them loose. Besides the 3 in 1 oil, Boeshield's T9 waterproof lube is also effective.
