My Camaster Stinger 2 conversion
-
I just spent about 1.5 days swapping out the old controller in my 3'x4' Stinger to a Duet2 + hardware breakout board. It needs a little firmware mod but otherwise every feature is hooked up and working. Very nice.
Original chassis
With Duet2 wifi working fine

@markz That looks like I did the wiring!

Well, if you worked for Camaster 10 years ago, that might have been you. Overall it's been a great machine other than the controller, which worked well but suffers from a small market and the need for a plugin pc board and massive cable.

Here's the first thing I tried as a test of my conversion - engraving the word Sweet. It's very good - the photo shows hard shadows making it easy to see the cut.
