Building my MPCNC 2019 Leave a like to support me in this challenge https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/tool/estlcam-mach3-cnc-mpcnc-controller-handheld-housing-support-me This is my smaller version of the pretty common handheld housing. Also, if you print those inlays in white, it's possible to add a backlight. I used lightened switches from Aliexpress. 60mm rotary encoder and the potis are also from Aliexpress. So, you'll get a pretty awesome controller for your CNC for less than $50. I still wait for the last parts to make it perfect. I will show more pictures when it's done. Feel free to contact me if you have some ideas to make it better. I wired it up to use it with the Arduino Mega 2560 and with Estlcam. It's pretty awesome. Encoder - https://de.banggood.com/custlink/DDmDJyDppi (5 volts needed) Push buttons - https://short1.link/evrUDZ (5 volts needed) Push buttons update 12V - https://de.banggood.com/custlink/G3vKCdGdfO (will change to 12V because of my housing lightning) Arduino Mega on sale now - https://de.banggood.com/custlink/Gvv3phvWGI Endstops I use - https://de.banggood.com/custlink/G3mKpdGCve (5 needed) Nema 17 step engine - https://de.banggood.com/custlink/vKmKJYGcCh (5 needed) Isolate all contacts with - https://de.banggood.com/custlink/vmK3JYKCWJ I bought the other switches in a local store. You need also two rotary poti switches with 4,7kOhm and one rotary switch 2P6T 2 pole 6 position. 3D printing settings: Layer height - 0.16 Infill percentage - 60% Heated bed on Printed with PLA filament Support on Print the inlays in white so you're able to light up the housing from inside to light up the letters. I'll use 12V for the light inside with a separate cable. You may have to use a D-Sub 37 connector to set up all functions. D-Sub 25 works without the backup lightning (lights in switches will still work / they need 5v) Visit this site to get it running - https://www.estlcam.de/handrad.php It's on German, maybe use Google translator I set it up like in the link and it works perfect, Mega 2560 -> TB6600-> Nema 17 Tool length sensor, touch plate, milling cutter cooling, endstops, and a lot more will also come. 31.01.2020 update: - German and English face plates
