Mind-blowing work here! As a programmer myself, I can imagine the effort! Congrats!

[adebagus]

thank you during I am very impressed with Fluid NC and running CNC with this, I'm waiting for a Fluid NC compilation with Arduino R4 ESP32, that would definitely be cool

[jacklandry]

Great video thanks for your work on this. I've purchased the new BTT Rodent motherboard and will install the board and Fluid NC on my Milo V1.5 Mill.

[nathanb]

Wow. You (and your team) just continue to one up yourselves! Thank you so much!!!

[joacimbreiler]

It shows that you put a lot of work into this, great work guys! I'm so pleased that you made one build to fit them all as it will really simplify the integration work in the gcode sender software.

I am picking up an old 4 axis mini mill today. I will be putting this board on it and running FLuidNC to modernize the machine and removing old, unsupported control electronics.

[Pesc-conti]

Amazing work! cant wait to see how this evolves in the future

[zacharysmith]

Really incredible. I'm planning to build my first CNC within the Year and have been going through your videos for help. I'm definitely thinking I'll use your controller and firmware!

[wiremonkeyshop]

Fantastic breakdown! I'm going to setup an ATC using FluidNC with your controller. I'm very familiar with grbl and FluidNC has so much more flexibility. Sweet!

[ZzTriplett]

This is exciting stuff! I will be giving this a test run on my work in progress DIY laser cutter for sure.

[brandoncramer]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This video was beyond helpful to see the process visually!!

This looks really great. Applaud the effort. I haven't used your two six packs I purchased quite enough but this is all the encouragement I need to get back at it. These updates seem to remove some software/setup hurdles I was having in regards to the installation to the esp32. It took more work than my brain could remember to go from a fresh windows install to a working esp32 board. Fluidnc seems more like something I could easily teach someone else to use as well in a short amount of time. I really like how it is organized, colors on the text to show warnings and errors is nice. I am looking forward to trying this out. Thank you for sharing.

Great new post *Barton* . Config file is the way to go. Next level from Grbl! _THANKS_ 👍👍👍

[engina]

Wow thanks soooo much for the board and now this.
:) really appreciate it as I am a total noob and was fumbling pretty hard.

[lkasdnlaksdnl]

it looks very nice. looking forward to test it myself when the hardware arrives.

seems like one of the next logical steps is a config editor right in the web gui since the software there will know about all of the valid field names and values for each class. you could probably generate the config gui elements from the source code class hierarchy itself. But that would let you edit the config locally on the device. In a raw editor mode it could let you paste in the raw text from one you want to copy/paste from. You could even verify the config before you reboot (similar to how HomeAssistant does)

[robinstefanov]

Great work, thank you for sharing your experience free !

[wolfgangblack]

I like FluidNC a lot! It's quite good and easy to use.

[FrankGraffagnino]

i like that mDNS support is included too!

So with FluidNC I don't need Marlin (which isn't designed for anything beside 3D printers anyway) anymore? Is that right? Then for actuators (pins) I don't use Marlin's M42 but your M62-65. And I can use any ESP32 suitable controller? (got a 6-axis PicknPlace machine now), but seems some commands are not supported, like M115 to read firmware.
