ShapeOko 2 tutorial – Dominion turntable – part 11

If you missed part 10, please find it here.

Update

This is just an update to let you know that my “friend” Murphy is very much alive and kicking in 2015!

Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong – and at the worst possible moment.

It’s true! I was just about to finish milling the last quarter of the Dominion turntable when disaster struck: During the last run in the y-direction with the ball nosed cutter, my ShapeOko 2 suddenly decided to shift everything about 10 millimeters in the y-direction with the following result:

Murphy's law at work
Murphy’s law at work
Murphy's law at work - a closer look
Murphy’s law at work – a closer look

Now I have to start milling these two quarters all over again… 🙁

Part 12.
