Intro
Rules
- Please donate $0.25/min of cut time
Instructions
It takes Gcode over USB, please run the chiller before lasering as there is currently no interlock for that.
This file worked well for me to stream a gcode file:
https://github.com/grbl/grbl/blob/master/doc/script/stream.py
Usage: ./stream.py gcodeFile /dev/ttyACM0
I used visicut to generate my gcode file, but I'm not sure I recommend that program.
