Boilermaker. Retired old fart. Plenty of experience of commercial CNC. Personally own K40, Zen 7x7, CR10, Ender-3. Now assembling my Workbee.
Post won’t let me edit as I “don’t have permission”… I’m signed in, & it’s MY post!
Anyway, my webpage is nothing like the new one. Confused dot com… Send a command G0x10Y10… off it runs. Must be the units… runs away even when sending G0X1Y1… lots to learn. Shouldn’t be this hard.

Really helpful fellas, helped me with my connection (within an hour, I was up & running!). Well, I had a connection, anyway. I am surprised that when we buy these machines, the first thing we have to do is fix the board! It really should be PnP.
It would be useful to show the routing of the wire.
I’d love it if this forum had delete & edit buttons that worked! Could get a bit useless, quickly, otherwise..
O.K. Tried to delete my previous, it won’t go away.
Although it’s a good idea to lay all the parts out so you can see them all, it’s not usually possible, I’m sure. I didn’t, which is why I didn’t spot the actual “C” beams, looked for all the worls as all the sections were identical. They’re not. Dhuh!
Found ‘em, & all is good. One point, the precision shims in two different packets are slightly different in thickness, but only by around 0.2mm, so I used all the same for the assembly.
SFSG (So Far So Good).
RYAN - If you get a chance, please try to fix the DELETE comment button, so I can tidy up this thread for future users.
Would also like the ability to post an image for the same purpose.
Trying to clarify, won’t let me edit my pervious.
So, Step1 is make the wheels up. Fine.
Step 2 is make the Y plates. Fine.
Use any C beam to check the tension of the wheels? Really? How is that possible? It would only be possible if the beams were assembled. So they’d have end plates on. So the Y assembly would have to be slid on first, then the plate to keep the two C beams would be fitted. So that throws out all the “just follow the guide”… I’m not going to have any problems, but it is less than clear for anyone who would find this daunting to start with… Just sayin’.
If I find anyway to help, I’ll kill this post, & put up what I feel would. Keep safe, y’all!
Part 2. Run C beam through? A 20x40 beam tends to be sloppy when on it's own. Umm. Power on.
