      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.

          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.
