48 minutes!  Just goes to show you, careful what you ask for!  Though to my surprise, lots of love for the long format.  I don't plan to make all my vids this long, but just didn't make sense to break it up.  Hopefully the timestamps make it a little more helpful.

Thanks to everyone for your support, hope you find something useful in here!

I like your longer videos, great job.

Duncan Smith

Cool, thanks! Definately worth it. Seeing similar issues to you with a belt driven axis, might have to swap that.

Watched it last night! You're making me regret the Nema 34 steppers I put on my cnc!

Personally I really enjoyed the long format. Apart from how good you are at conveying information in an entertaining way, I think a lot of it comes down to how many different topics were covered. Nothing felt like it dragged on too long.

I'm just looking forward to the Maho having its own Only Fans page, seeing that Y-axis, the faster and faster feed rates along with cut depth, mmmmmm.....

As always, I appreciate the content and the humor TOT!

I enjoy the content so much that I find the < 15 minute videos leave me with a "Where's the rest of it?" kind of feeling. OTOH, I know that a 15 minute video takes far longer to shoot, edit, and release than one might image, especially when Tony starts adding the special effects. I don't think I'd want every video to be 48 minutes, but I sure did enjoy it, especially since they feel like they've been a little less frequent lately.

Aww that „I forgot to wet the sponge“ at the beginning brought back some bad memories from „the green mile“... :‘(

Ironically, I had to pause the video at the hesitation joke, as I was laughing so hard.

Uhhhhh, Mmmmmm, Ahhhhhh...........What? I must be a 1%er meaning I understood about 1% of all that. Even though I didn't understand the main concepts I was still entertained and learned some new stuff.

Hey Tony thank you for explaining a little more about the servos. That odd, parallel-port-like connector which you had to solder into manually. Seemed laborious. Port-CN1 it is called? Can you provide more links I am curious what purpose that connector serves. Does each one of the controllers (X/Y/Z) have one of these? Do they connect to the industrial computer hosting Mach 4 and the servo software? So many questions. Thanks!
