@jay_s_uk awesome, I guess I'll pull the plug and go for it. Thanks!

Hey @jay_s_uk when you say "you can't at the moment" do you mean you can't at the moment because of a bug? Or do you mean you can't update to an -rc release in SBC in general? I ask because there does seem to be a version 3.5.3-rc1 in the repo here so I'm not really sure what the issue is. Could you help me understand?

Hey @droftarts, thanks for the heads up, and @dc42, enjoy your holiday! I just wanted to take a moment to express how impressed I am with the incredible hardware and software you guys create. My experience with the Mini 5+, 1LC, and magnetic filament monitor has been fantastic! The documentation is top-notch, and the forum is always such a helpful and well-organized place to find support. I know it can be tough and disheartening when all you hear are problems, so I wanted to share my appreciation for all your hard work and dedication. It really shows!

Hey @droftarts and @dc42 - FYI this issue is fixed in the alpha firmware linked by Andy Everitt in the github issue for this bug: https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/issues/1039 Thanks again for all your help on this!

I'm so sorry to hear this. May he rest in peace. I only discovered his YouTube videos a few weeks ago, and it's heartbreaking to know there won't be any new ones. My condolences to his family and friends.

@o_lampe did you build one with duet3 hardware?

@jay_s_uk thanks again, this is super helpful!

@jay_s_uk just curious, any limitations on the spindle/VFD I should be watching out for when using a duet3 board?

Hi everyone, I'm thinking about building the PrintNC DIY CNC router and wanted to ask if anyone here has experience with it. If you've built one, I'd love to hear about your experience using Duet hardware with the machine. Specifically, I'm curious if the Duet3 Motor23 CL closed-loop steppers would be a good option for this build. I've always wanted to experiment with closed-loop steppers, but I've never had a project where they seemed necessary. What do you think of these motors for the PrintNC?

Hey @Zseven, I use an mini5+ as an expansion board, let me know if there is anything I could help you with

@dc42 Great question! Unfortunately, I can’t give a definitive answer at this point without conducting more thorough testing, I’m not entirely sure about the exact sequence of events. Let me get back to you this weekend
