I have been running a very light duty foam cutting machine for a few years now. Occasionally I cut tougher stuff like G10 but it is not really meant for that. Turn down your volume. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6edHmzVR_mg I work mostly in google sketchup and the designer of the CNC machine I own developed a free CAM plugin to work with it. http://sketchucam.jimdo.com/ it generates standard gcode that should work with just about any contoller. http://www.planet-cnc.com/ Controller I am using. Works really well easy to calibrate and setup.

That is exactly what it does. It looks to me like they liked the idea behind a pen plotter and ran with it. Does a pretty good job on large sheets of materials which was the design goal. It has limitations such as x axis skew when the foam board is uneven side to side.

Rakins posted:Anyone have any suggestions for a good brushless motor controller? How many volts/amps? Is it just for a spindle? Any off the shelf R/C aircraft one will do just fine. You might want to look at one for a helicopter as you can set them to governor mode and the input now becomes a speed set point.
