Worked great so far

So i bought this, knowing full well it wasn't designed to run on my 3018 pro cnc machine, so after replacing the servo with a NEMA 17 model ($8 on amazon) this worked right off the bat. Had some issues working out the rotation, but that's to be expected, for the record the command line is $101, and i set mine at 48, so $101=48 in console.I knew right off i'd have to modify this to work my machine, which i accounted for, but i will say it's a very well designed unit, that's not hard to make fit, and easy to change for different items, and all in all apart from servo needing to be swapped, worked right off the bat. Not Saying the servo that comes with it is bad, it's just not compatible with my machine, which i knew would most likely be a issue.All in all, great value for money.

I have not actually used it to do any engravings yet but I have tried it out on a piece of 1” dowel. It as well as any CNC router/engraving is a learning experience and takes time to get it right.

I added this rotary module to my 4040-XE and laser machine a few weeks ago and it has performed flawlessly. This has opened a new arena for my little hobby and side business, with the ability to engrave cylindrical and other similar shapes. The small wheels allow for non-cylindrical and tapered objects.
