Hi, what kind of mega shield I'll have to use to make it run?
Are you using rams 1.4 or some custom pcb?

Thanks! I'll be very glad to play with your board and hopefully finish my 4 axis cutter.

bCNC has been very useful but I'll probably switch to full custom on PC side.

Can you elaborate a bit on external motor drivers? Does it mean your board has just step/dir outputs routed to external motor controllers?

Then I'm afraid it'll be of little use to me.

If I can ask you used it with external powerful drivers for big steppers / BLDCs or you simply had board with stepstics on it?

I'm doing 4 axis on 6 motors (2 axis have 2 motors in parallel and that's stretching what's possible on DVRs so anything than can handle a bit more is welcome change).

is any of the 6 relay outputs capable of PWM like standard grbl?

That'd be perfect. If not then single add-on board and motor windings in parallel should also be sufficient.

Sorry, my github somehow supressed notifications.
thank you very much for all your help! I already started reading all docs of GRBL to hopefully be at least close to getting into your code when everything arrives.

I think no tracking. As far as I remember shipping costs UPS may cost few times more than entire controller

No, still fighting with customs. They can't believe I got such "industrial equipment" as a git. But should hopefully be solved within days

Hi,
