I wondered that as well... But the format of the files that go on the USB are extension .GEE

I also believe the area of travel from the sketchucam file is larger than my 13x18 area... ?

It was about 10 hours (!) of train, not counting about 1h30 of car for door to door travel when it normally takes me only 8 hours by car. WiFi on board, train allows me to work a bit especially when seat next to me is empty. This time the train was packed, the internet about as slow as the train and ... I slept through most of it. I just can't drive by myself for that long any more for same reason. ;(

It would be double work, but, you cold buy the elecronics for the ox and hook it up to the intelicarve. Assuming that the intellicarve has standard steppers.

I would if I could! My dad and I have started some sign making/lithophanes as a side business in the back of my coffee shop, and he is quite the stickler on warranties and doing things that void them... Chances of sliding that by him.... Not likely!

Sounds like it just might work! I'll play around with that this evening and see if it will work! Thanks!

I think I've found a small error in the parts list for the OX build.

The link for the GT2 pulley points to the GT3 pulley. I placed my order based on the links so.......

I'm sure it will be fixed shortly but thought I would put a heads up here in case anyone places an order in the next few days.

Actually, I think the NEMA 23 steppers have 1/4" (6.35mm) shafts and the GT2 2mm pulleys OB sells all have a 5mm bore. The GT2 3mm pulleys have a 1/4" (6.32mm) bore so they are actually the correct thing.

If you were using NEMA 17 steppers then you'd want the 5mm bore.

EDIT:

Just to clarify, the 2mm and 3mm are BOTH called GT2, the difference is the tooth pitch. The OB store incorrectly has (had?) a designation of GT3 on the 3mm pitch parts to reduce confusion I think. You can get GT2 2mm, GT2 3mm, and GT2 5mm as far as I can find online.

EDIT:

Last, edit, I promise.

The GT2 actually refers to the tooth profile, not the pitch. The company that created these profiles DOES have a GT3 profile, but it's a little different.
