I've been messing with this again. I have an intel 2 ports pcie lan card that I tried to use. I got the ip address from ip a command and put it in the etc/ethercat.config. for some reason only the lan on the motherboard works even with the address changed. But the servos were crunchy sounding and it was disconnecting randomly. I put it back to the correct address for the motherboard port and its smooth. I have not been able to run ethercats on the pci card.

Got the saw back home. She's definitely rough. Good news is it looks possible to make the saw miter in the opposite direction by removing one support bar. The way the shuttle seems to work is it has a ball screw with a limit switch on it to control the length that the hydraulic retracts. Once it hits the limit switch it stops the hydraulic from further feeding forward. I may rework the vices as they currently have a very shallow depth of hydraulic travel. The bearings in the saw wheels feel sloppy but smooth. In the morning I am pressure washing the whole machine and may try to put power to it to see if anything still works. If I can reuse hydraulic pump and band saw motor that would be awesome!

Hi all,

JCLPCB delivered my self made PCB board. Testing ongoing. I had to order 5 boards. If anyone is interested in one, I have a few spares. Located in the Florida USA.
