Rotary attachment

Looking to get this rotary attachment and looking for advise on if it'll work with my mini gerbil 3?  I guess the physical connections and pin outs etc. might be the issues. Any thoughts or experiences?  Thanks

EDIT, can't seem to add a link so I've attached a screen shot of the item.

Hi Dave,

yes it should work.  Strongly advise you to read https://awesome.tech/draft-rotary-setup-instructions-for-mini-gerbil/ first though as you should realise that rotaries are not plug-and-play, there's a bit to learn about how they work and how to set them up in Lightburn. I don't know what connector wire (if any) comes with this type of rotary, so you may need to buy that too. They're available on ebay etc.

If you're going to do most of your work on a rotary from now then plug it into the MG3 and off you go. If you think you're going to swap back and forth between normal laser and rotary then buy a switch to reduce the fiddle factor.

Regards,

Dan

Great, thanks for that information 👍👍
