Re: My Build Log - Low Cost DLP Printer (Hopefully Under £80
The Arduino motor shield uses H-Bridges to run their stepper motors, which Grbl (a popular CNC firmware for the Uno) does not support. You might have some trouble getting (community) standard firmwares to run on it, but I'm not sure.

Not nearly as bad of a price as I was expecting... but still way overpowered for what a DLP needs.

Re: Can we use salt water on a bottom up machine ?
The problem is trying to maintain a liquid barrier that is consistent in its thickness. This might not be too hard when you're looking at thicknesses greater than 1 mm, but some people are printing at layer heights of .01mm... Any mixing that happens between the resin and liquid barrier will have a ...

Re: Z Motor not working
Which power port are you plugging into? You should be plugging into the one on the shield, not the Arduino. - then the usb is in and the power isn't, it is more difficult and sort of jumps This is an interesting bit... The USB should not affect the stepper motor in any way (As the power lines aren't...

Re: Z Motor not working
You should definitely be able to move the motor manually. Could you before (on your old computer)? Can you move it manually when it's not connected? Usual causes to not having the motor move: ⋅ It's not plugged in. Check your wiring. ⋅ The USB is plugged in, but the power isn't. ...

Definitely looks like Z wobble to me. Your aspect ratio of the projector is also very off... Marvin's looking a little thin!
