Hi, im new here,
i need to build one,
if i build the board, buy the pc software,....how can i program the PIC-ic ? is the IC program free? its in *.bin or *.hex
where can i get one?

[irving2008]

to program the PIC you need a programmer and you can download the firmware for the PIC for free from the planet CNC site. Programmers cost between 20 and 50USD on ebay, the cheap ones plug into a parallel port, the more expensive (like microchip's PicKIT2) are USB.

Or you can by the PIC ready programmed for 11Euro and since you are buying the software this would be the easiest and cheapest way to do it...

Hi Andrej
I have a Proxxon MF70 that I cnc'ed using a usb controller (4axis mk 1 I think) and generally i have been very happy with it and the software. I have a problem with G2 and G3 circular interpolation. No matter what I do I seem to be only able to make a quarter circle from say x0 to x10 y0- y10 with a 10mm rad. To go from x10 - 20 y10 - y0 10mm rad is mostly ok but going from x20 - x10 y0 - y-10 and
it starts making snake patterns and looses location of 0 datum point. I don't have any problem doing very detailed engraving and linier interpolation. Hope you can help.

The thread is 8 years old. There' little reason these days to DIY a controller. Either PC with software or a GRBL board off eBay (and I'm not recommending the latter).

Grbl with stm32 is working good . But u need skills to program it and electronics to make board .
