Hi everybody. I´m making a school project and i wanted to do a CNC, but to begin i decided to start small. I wanted to make two motors make a square with a pencil. I am using a CNC Shield, 2.5A steppers and a Arduino UNO, and, it seems that, all the tutorials on the internet that dont use GRBL, d…

Are you using the GRBL/shield pinouts? Arduino CNC Shield – 100% GRBL Compatable Do it yourself CNC projects are popping up everywhere and we decided that we wanted to contribute to the growth. Here are a few of our design goals: Modular Design – We wanted to do more than… …

To write code that uses the CNC shield you must first know the pin mapping between the CNC shield and the Uno. Here is that pin mapping. [cnc shield Uno pins] The CNC shield has the stepper drivers disabled by default. To enable the steppers one must set pin 8 as an OUTPUT and low or jumper th…

Thanks. I'll read it when i have time :]

I'll reply when You've done it.
