Cleaned the wiring and set the motor drivers up on stand-offs the whole enclosure looks orderly and ready to rock. It’s amazing how much progress I could make in an afternoon without actually testing the components, maybe procrastinating a tad. #stewardesshowfarexactlyisatad? #art #arduino #dragonframe

Two steps forward one back. Soldered up some new longer wires for the motors, long enough to go along the motion control camera crane. I’m now up to six drivers in here, which should be exciting, but instead I saw the
#magicsmoke guess now I need to take it all apart again and test each part

Taking the advice of a super genius coworker I delved back into the guts of
#cambot with my smallest soldering iron to check connections and clean up this mess of spaghetti. It took hours but I think my
#motioncontrol rig is close, the motors now move in both directions! it might have been badly tuned
#easydriver but now it seems like the tilt motor is having some torque/slipping issues

Did some more wiring on the pan and tilt
#motioncontrol rig, checked the vga line for shorts and confirmed there was no short. One of the motors only travels in one direction and the other is underpowered, so the problem must be the stepper drivers, maybe they aren’t tuned right or a loose connection there

The stage. I realized that most of what I’ve been shooting is really small so the 4×4 stage was overkill, and I’d rather use the black background more often so I spent some time setting up the room to be better, split the stage in half, and raised it up, mounted some brackets to the wall and got rid of the stands, and ran my cables out of the way. It should be a lot easier when I get back to developing my motion control rig
