In this video I embark upon the journey of building a CNC router machine. My goal is to use the machine to design and build kiteboards, surboards, and other similar products.
Parts List:
Motion Controller: https://www.poscope.com/product/pokeys57cnc/
Stepper Motor Drivers (1 for each motor): https://www.geckodrive.com/g201x-digital-step-drive.html
24V Power Supply for the Motion Controller: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07CPTHG7N/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
48V Power Supply for the Motors: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00G8UDEQ8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And I’m using Mach4 software to run the machine.
I started by buying and assembling the electronic components of the CNC machine. This is supposed to be the most daunting task in the process of building a CNC machine. It took me 2 weeks of tinkering around with the electronics to get the motors spinning and all the emergency stop equipment working correctly.

Dude, all i wanted was to know a brief overview of the electronic parts and how they go together. I searched and searched only to find endless tedious descriptions of what they all do. Finally, i found your explanation. Within 3 minutes i got exactly what I was looking with the briefest breakdown. Thanks! Awesome!
How do you wire 12v led power switches to power the power supplies?
Do you keep a fire extinguisher near by?
Can you please provide wiring diagram
