Hello, Great job! I've been trying to buold a turntable for years. How can I purchase your code, and do you also sell any parts?
@robc2536Ай бұрын
Looks like I missed out on getting the code since you have shutdown your Etsy store😞. I completely understand about not having enough time. Hopefully you will find a way to get the code available in the future. Take care! BTW- I enjoyed the build videos.

Good afternoon. Unfortunately I had to shut down my Etsy shop for a few weeks. I recently had my first child and it is taking up 150% of my time at the moment. I should have the store back up in a few weeks. Ill try to Reply back to this post again when it is operational.

Follow on info for some points brought up.... The CO2 laser operates at a wavelength that can't penetrate the transparent cover. In fact, if it needed a tint to work, you wouldn't be able to use the laser to cut plastic with it in the first place! So, tinted or not, the unit is safe as long as the cover is closed.

I just replaced all my steppermotor- and endstop wires with shielded cables on my 6040 cnc. I have a 24v powersupply witch has the only ground-connection on the cnc at the 220v side (mains). Can i connect all the shielded cables of the steppermotors and endstops to the ground of the 220v connection?

Very nicely done. I did one a couple years ago with the Arduino and Stepper motor but I could not figure out how to go from one stall to another stall without going back to the main track. Can you provide the sketch for your project?
@russrockino-rr08647 ай бұрын
Awesome project. I am guessing you have now spent way over the original $300 figure?
@orangelabengineering29236 ай бұрын
Thank you! With all of the R&D I did, YES! Totally flew past that $300 mark. I believe that if you built the whole thing from scratch using basic parts you could probably get it under $200.

This is an amazing series, I'm just starting to go through them all as I want to make a turntable myself. I'd never considered driving it this way. Do you have a link or name or other detail to the file? I've tried a couple of searches on Thingiverse but haven't been able to find it. Also any details on what I assume is a slip ring that you've used?

I Just watched all your videos about this controller and your work is so good!Im not yet in railroad modelling but Im sure I will be soon,and thats why Im here.I have a question and I will try to be as comprehensible as I can.First of all as I can imagine you working with DC controller for your Locomotives so thats why you have to reverse polarity on the "moving" part of the turntable.I cant understand how the individual tracks in the "warehouse" work individually.Sometimes you have more than one trains in the warehouse but it only moves the one that load or unload on the turntable.Is the arduino somehow implemented with these tracks and gives power only at which you choose?

You really need to release the whole thing as a package. Then people could play with it and can check if the components they use are compatible. Just releasing the code and packaging for the handheld controller will cause more problems.

I will release the code with a manual stating what hardware I used. People can test the hardware they plan to use with the free version of the code prior to purchasing the full version. In the manual I also call out what hardware I used in the base station to help give some guidance.

I just found this video series because I'm looking to add a turntable to my layout and I was wanting to control it via Arduino rather than using a store-bought controller to save money and because I have a source for an unpowered turntable at a very good price. Yours looks to be the most promising code I've found so far. It will probably be at least a couple of months before I'm ready to work on that project, so I hope you come out with some followup videos and code release soon. In your video you said you were hitting the limits of the Nano, and that the nano was used in the controller to save space. Would it be possible to put the Arduino with the controls under the layout and use the Ethernet cable to connect to the control box instead of the other way around? I don't know how many wires you need for all of the control box components, so it may be a no-go due to the number of wires required for the keypad, knobs, and screen.
@orangelabengineering29238 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching. A new video in the series was just put out with more info. You hit the nail on the head with your last comment, there wouldn't be enough wires in the Ethernet cable to support all of the switches, knobs, buttons, and LCD. Also you would deal with signal distortion over a longer run with Ethernet cables for the LCD. Great minds think alike because I originally tired to do what you are proposing.
