DIY Arduino CNC Machine with GRBL Shield – Setup Tutorial!
This video shows how to set up an Arduino, Stepper motors, and a GRBL Shield to create an inexpensive but powerful DIY CNC system!
Products used in the video:
Arduino Uno: http://amzn.to/1E0gxVU
GBL Alternative: https://amzn.to/2GqJ27R
GRBL Shield: http://bit.ly/1vJbWY9

The GRBL Shield is a great way to use G-Code to create an Arduino-based CNC machine, but setting up the software and wiring the hardware can be confusing! This video walks through every step of the process!
This video is a “foundation” video for two CNC machines we are about to do a DIY build-series of videos one: one is a DIY CNC gantry sorting machine, the other is a DIY CNC Pneumatic Engraving
machine!

Which software is this @1:01
Hi! How do i connect a stepper to the coupler? My hobby stepper shaft is smaller than the coupler hole 😔
Wow! Got it working first shot! By far the best no bull, walk through there is out there! Great work and thanks for taking the time to put this out there for the rest of us out here!
Please , is arduino used in industrial equipment or only for educational subjects ?
good day
i would like to ask you if you can make us a video for ( wiring micro switches N/O on the grbl shield and arduino and how to set it up ) please
for the X.Y and Z axes
Very well explained!
the stepper motor i have bought has 4 wires. and the plugs on the grbl shield has 4 plugs. can i connect the stepper motor no mater witch color on the grbl plugs?

HI John, I am in need of building CNC Plasma table…but I also wanted to use a router on occasion…none the less….I was going to start out with just a 4×4 table…..and make it so if I needed to upgrade to 4×8 table. it wouldn't take a great deal of reworking…lead screws and rails would need to be changed…..For that application, is there a specific roller set up, rails, steppers, etc that you would recommend to by or manufacture.?
Great Video
Will you help me sir?
How can I learn more from you. PLEASE
Thought I'd let you know this video was so great it became the starting point of the building of my own diy CNC router back when you posted it. It has been running for a while now, and I still try to make upgrades to it, just for kicks. I use it primarly for woodworking, and I still don't get tired of watching it cut through wood. Thanks!
very good, but I can't determine suitable shield can hold 4 A , wait for replay
Hi
Does the 12v stepper motors works on 24v since the power supply used is 24v ?
And deos the 2v or 3.5v steppers work on 12v ?
Enjoying your videos. Is it possible to use the Arduino GRBL to control my VFD for Spindle control also?
Dear bros!
I wanna do something like this but using the cnc shield and you give me some glue how to have 1 more A-motor controlled via G code
Many thanks
4:18 I'm pretty sure, since the source code is all available on github, that you can compile and upload the source code within the IDE.
I can't understand what he says @ 4:39. Right after he says "So you download this hex file. bla bla bla something stop. "Then, go to this website…" Does anyone know what he is saying?
Great video. Is there where i can find to download your excel sheet or where to see the formulas ? i want to build mine but i use metric sistem not imperial. Thank you !
This looks like where I should start…I'm trying to build the first true 'Replicator' tech, a machine which build copies of itself, and anything else, from waste and raw materials (eventually, but at first from scrap parts like processors, stepping motors, etc.), so anyone interested in that (and how to avoid all civil tickets and win in court, with the 'Fundamental Principles' of law, and the 'Fundamental Principles' of curing disease via diet and C60 to detox), can go to my Facebook wall: HarleyBorgais
And thank you NYC CNC for this and your other videos! I could not do things like this without help like this from people like you!
Why the fuck does this firearm related video not come with a warning that it is for murderers
thank you for the explanation was helpful for me. their is a point i would like to know it. how can a set homing and point zero on grbl and arduino and can we run arduino with grbl on Mach3 and how please be generous with another explanation video
Im getting a upload fail error., I did exactly what you did
Writing you from germany.. Great and vey helpful videos, good explained. Thank you for those videos
Did you consider using Mach3 or Mach4 ?
Excellent video.
Does the Nema 17 stepper motor rotate both ways by itself. Or there are some specific motors which rotate both ways?
Typically American
Very Nice Voice & Tutorial And Thank you Very Much.
