My SLB is due to arrive next week. I can hardly wait to get it and start the upgrade on my MKII!

[boko]

Love it. So happy to see Chris in his element sharing this!

I so enjoy all the specific information updates to general information; from each to all related there with Sienci Labs involved. By this I mean everybody seems to be in their groove and enjoying the work-play they're doing. It's a delicate balance as the years go by, and the products grow in quantity and technicality; for there not to leave out the personnel fit from the scheme of the whole business and fusion of the enterprise. Kudos to 😀everyone; keep up the fine effort you are all putting into the art and activities there at Sienci Labs!

This is an immensely appreciated update. I purchased the SLB early because I have a lot of trust and confidence in you guys. You've more than earned it and I can't wait for my SLB to arrive tomorrow. On the g-Sender front, anything new regarding touchscreen operations, specifically how it doubles the jog distance? Last question, do you recommend ethernet over USB or vice versa and if so, why? Thank you, guys, for all that you have, are and will do for the CNC community, /\,

[Headdancer]

Thanks Chris! I’ll be getting a SLB in the near future!

[AwesomeOpossumCrafters]

Excited to get mine and hook it up to the MK1. This will give me some experience with the new features while I await the delivery of my AltMill that is due in May.

Hello, I’m from Brazil. I’m also building my CNC router and want to turn it into a product, but things are much harder here, so this $165 price is quite steep for us. Another question is why this board is much more expensive than the tabletop board, which is historically well-tested hardware with excellent performance. I plan to use LinuxCNC for my router. I am a designer and system developer, and in the future, I intend to create a more user-friendly web-based software and use LinuxCNC as the backend to facilitate interaction for the end user. Sorry for the English, I’m using Google Translate.

Is there any plan to have headless setup. SLB+Rasperri Pi + gSender and just access it from the browser? Kinda like buildbotics? I'm looking to switch my controller to SLB but really wanted the headless setup that reduced wiring for display and control.

[southernjoes]

Any chance you can provide a wiring diagram or video on how to control a spindle. I already have a VFD and spindle

[sbieth]

Wow i did not realize how complex and different the new SLB is to the original board which I am currently running. I’d like to know in watching your video your router is different and larger then the makita router, does this mean I will have to purchase the lager router to take advantage of the speed the new slb provides? Thank you

Love the machine. Just hate the usb connection. The usb dont fit right in any pc i have. Its came out during a project once

[Townie]

Chris, are you going to do an assembly video for the Altmil? I only have one hand and had a hard time with the longmill mk1. I thought your videos were great, but I struggled with some or the assemblies . That is why I'm asking.❤❤

[knickles]

So just to clarify, rigs with the vortex will still use the 3rd axis switch if we haven't purchase an external driver for the vortex, yes.

When is GSender going be native on the SLB? This one thing I was super excited about. Do you have a 240v power supply for it. (Ian Fraser)

[hamanjam]

Do the pre-orders have any special “limited edition” engraving? I thought that was mentioned somewhere.

[darryldrebenstedt]

Where can we find where we stand in the order for shipment? I go to the order status page and there is nothing for the SLB?

[Johnny.D]

From what i am hearing i should be able to upgrade to the slb with my existing lm mk1 without any issues. I would like to have this unit if it means i can run a long complex program and not fear it will go south 3/4 of the way thru and leave huge hole or cut line across my project that isn't in the program. This is my biggest fear and thevreason i keep my projects small.

[IceCreams]

Hi. When gSender will be available for Mac with ARM processors ?

[samspade]

Would this alow closed loop stepper motors to be added to mk2?

[WESK]

would this board be overkill for a cnc3040
