K40 Upgrades

Quote from Brandon Whitton on May 26, 2018, 12:37 pmHere is a switch box I made to put a pause, resume, and abort button as well as a switch that will allow you to switch the PWM control from the Gerbil/PC to your on board controller. It mounts on the side, my machine had a hole already so there was no need for drilling. The buttons will eventually be labeled and they work great. I designed the box in a few mins for my 3D printer and printed it in about 4 hours. The wires just go underneath between the cracks in each door. I was stuck using very large wire that I had on hand but if you use smaller wires or drill a hole for them to go through they fit beautifully
I will add a tutorial for wiring and installation very soon as well as add the box file for anyone that would like it
