Pimp Your Cheap Mill with These Essential Upgrades! Get your hands on some quality wrenches for collets that'll make your life easier. Invest in bins to keep things organized and within reach - just be prepared to install a knockoff 8020 bar if needed. Don't let dust pile up; get yourself a dustpan so you can sweep the bed clean without searching for a garbage can big enough for your router and all that comes with it. Save time by skipping the headaches of finding the right toolchain for your Chinese CNC Machine. Here's what works: Don't upgrade Grbl on Arduino, nor try to swap in a non-knockoff board. Use GrblControl over Candle - it makes life so much easier! Stick with the latest Inkscape version and rename those exported gcode files to any extension GrblControl looks for - just don't use Makerbot Unicorn GCode. Double-check your wiring to ensure Z and X axes aren't swapped, or you might end up like me, with an embedded end mill in a brand new bed.
