I hope you enjoy.
It is the kind of work that is not easily found, congratulations!
Looking good, bought a masso unit myself and the same screen as you, and am now embarking on my own cnc station build. Had got sick of the problems I was having with mach3 and have been watching your channel and enjoying every video of yours.
Nice one Dale.
In part 2 of the Console build series you comment about a gap behind the screen, if you haven't sorted it out by now. I would probably suggest some Window Insulation Weather Stripping, foam with a sticky back that comes in rolls in various different sizes. Should be enough to block the dust.
I thought of that but once I got it together and opened it up and removed the metal strips I mentioned the whole thing fitted much better so I didn't need to do anything in the end.
Cheers

A great series Peter I have enjoyed watching. The controller really looks awesome, nice work. Can;t wait to see it finished and running.
Thanks Russ.
Very slick! I like it a lot, Peter!
Thanks Mark
Great job Peter.
Thanks rchavez
Beam me up Peter LOL.👍👍👍
Thanks Lou
Nice job, I was considering making one the look like an arcade cabinet
Thanks, maybe I should add the playstation game controller to Masso. That would confuse visitors.
A touch of the Thunderbirds about it maybe too?
FAB
The newer 3rd generation masso controllers are mentioned on the website. Can you talk about what's new in gen 3 vs gen2.
I could look at it once if I get my hands on one. I will see what I can do but can't promise anything at this time.
Cheers

In no way is this meant to be highly critical it's using some simple design logic.
My electrical and computer knowledge is slim at best with a passing interest in cnc at some possible time. My main hobby is metal machining so this is posted from that perspective. After 50 years of being around and working with industrial electrical equipment from low voltage to over 100,000V I've seen more than my share of electrical failures and fires. At some point starting at day one to sometime within the next 20-50 years ALL electrical equipment is going to fail in one way or another. That's guaranteed to happen. Unless the component is designed to electrically isolate itself from a dead short then the rest is always with no exceptions made from a non flammable material. That 100% of the time includes the enclosure those components are mounted in. That's a part of the engineering design so the fire risks and possible damage to other components within the enclosure are minimized as much as possible. And yes I realize your cnc is designed and meant for working wood. They will however easily machine aluminum with the use of a solid carbide end mill of reduced diameter to stay within the cutting rpm speeds metal requires.
It would have been slightly more money, but any A/C or Heating fabricating shop could provide, shear, bend and fold aluminum sheet metal to your design dimensions and your own cnc could perform any of the openings required. Adding some 12 mm x 12 mm drilled and tapped aluminum square stock internally would allow the enclosure to be bolted together or with the correct tabbed and folded design rivets could also be used. Yes it's possible you might see no failures within your lifetime, but it's still impossible to predict that's going to be 100% true. Even with low voltage I would always have chosen metal over the use of wood.
Fear not my friend for I have invested in the latest in technology
The Fuse
I think I have a better chance of winning the lottery 2 weeks in a row than this bursting into flames.
Bear in mind that most of the electronics is external to the unit and that is mounted on a composite aluminum plate.
The entire unit draws less than 2 amps at 12 volts and the fuse limits it to 3 should there be catastrophic failure. I was surprised how little current the monitor actually uses.

Can I add that the Sign Board you used on the back is likely more flammable then the ply wood
Can tell about backlash option macros for masso controller?Can masso be programmed new macro script?
Masso does not allow user scripts and macros. There is backlash compensation in Masso.
Cheers
Peter
@@cncnutz Thank you.No idea why you all talk that masso is better than Mach3 or Mach4 if you not able write scripts yourself.All depends on Masso support team.I have Tekcel CNC and want to upgrade to masso controller .But i though this will be easier for me to add own scripts,but i was wrong.Tekcel company do not allow and Masso company as well.
Nice one Pete very nice 👍😎 how much for the files $
Thanks Jerry.
The file are available for free.

Peter, gotta stop cutting plastic without adequate ventilation....
You can't blame it all on the plastic. Don't forget the paint fumes.
Cheers
Peter
@@cncnutzBit too creative for paint fumes :)
