Hi Laurent,
I have electronic background and would probably go from scratch, but if you have pcb.s or anything would like to discuss with you. It looks from your pics that it can be configured for a fourth axis which would serve me well.

Hi John,
I don't have any PCBs done as it is too expenssive... I was hoping to get a bit more interrest from members of this forum so we could group a PCB order to get the price down. But it did not happen so....
I can provide you a schematic and an image to program in the PIC microcontroller.

For the 4th axis, At the moment all buttons are used X+, X-, Y+, Y-, Z+, Z-, Sart and Stop.
But I CNC the top cover of the enclosure myself. If could be machine differently to add a 4th axis... Or even use a different enclosure bigger to do more ???
The PIC micro controller I used has plenty of I/O spare so....

Have you got a PIC programmer ?
