Hi Cooldan,

Welcome to the forum.

Not showing up in Chrome

That sounds very cool but cannot get it to work.
It will not show up at all in Chrome (latest version) but does show up in IE and I can rotate it around zoom in and out and such but thats it the submit does nothing at this point for me at least.

Ok it's working now (needed hardware acceleration turned on in Chrome settings) very cool the way it moves nice job!

you need to replace all those servos with metal gear digitals. this will give you much higher resolution and smoother movement, though I suspect some of your jitters are from your software. digital servos could be updated at 400hz so you could micro step from position to position.

if you use belt/chain/cable drives, you DO need microstepping (unless you have some sort of reduction between the motor and the belt drive, but even then...)
in general, stepper motors run better with microstepping as it helps to avoid resonance, so use it if you have it even if your application does not need it for resolution.

what is a typical router? my woodworking router spins at 24000 rpm and cuts as fast as I can push it. in fact if I feed too slow, THAT is when it burns the wood. advocating slow feed speeds is counter to the science of cutting.
The CNC router I use will happily cut plywood at 2000mm/min at 30000rpm.
Please see my extensive posting on feed speeds in the OX build thread.
In short, use existing science to calculate feed speed. If your machine is not stiff enough at that speed, reduce only the depth of cut, for example, with a 1/8" bit, instead of 1/16" depth, use 1/32" per pass.

Excellent advice David.
