It appears that you are sharing a series of updates about your 3D printer conversion project, which you've dubbed "XLNC". The updates range from mechanical and electrical upgrades to software improvements and tooling enhancements. Here's a summary of the key points: 1. **Mechanical Upgrades:** * Upgraded belts to 9mm wide HTD steel fiber reinforced belts with 12-tooth pulleys. * Replaced all steppers with NEMA 23 260oz-in motors for faster acceleration and cutting. 2. **Electrical Upgrades:** * Upgraded all motor drivers to DM542T, while the RADDS board remains as the motion controller. 3. **Software Improvements:** * Developed an XLNC Panel Beta 1, a user interface for users of Repetier Host and Repetier/Marlin firmware to streamline usage of their printers as CNC mills or laser cutters. * Plans for external gcode file execution in the XLNC Panel app. 4. **Tooling Enhancements:** * Designed a new mixing extruder mount, allowing the use of Bstruder bowden style filament drive with the diamond hotend. * Added bed leveling clamps for use on glass beds when using as 3D printers. 5. **Future Plans:** * Planning to migrate the project to its own website. * Upgrading to 1.5" OD 304 stainless steel rails for smoother finishes on prints. * Redesigning frame corner braces and the z-axis motor mount for NEMA 17/23 motors. 6. **Issues Addressed:** * Overcame issues with MXL belts breaking by switching to 9mm wide HTD steel fiber reinforced belts with 12-tooth pulleys. * Replaced bearings on the Z axis due to failed lower thrust bearings. Overall, your project has made significant progress in converting a 3D printer into a CNC mill and laser cutter. The updates highlight various mechanical, electrical, software, and tooling enhancements that have been implemented or planned for future development.
