Universal Gcode Sender VS LaserGRBL

I don't know what's on screen, but if you're looking for a nice, cross platform program to send some gcode, I really like UGS: https://winder.github.io/ugs_website/. Source: about 2 years ago

Connect the 3018 to a PC, use a gcode sender like Candle or gSender or cncjs or UGS and then type $$ in the console. Source: over 2 years ago

I'm a little cheap+lazy and I just use a simple electrical contact probe using https://winder.github.io/ugs_website/ and the probe plugin. Flipping the part I generally butt the stock against a fixed parallel, then probe using the tool for X+Y (offset by the tool radius), and Z probe as well off some of the un-machined stock.

LaserGRBL’s website seems pretty good. If you haven’t already, it’s worth clicking on the ‘Usage’ tab and having a read of that stuff. Here is a link https://lasergrbl.com. Source: over 1 year ago

If you're on Windows, give a try to LaserGRBL, LB may be bugging something. Source: almost 2 years ago

Https://lasergrbl.com/ is a way to stream G-code to an arduino using windows so we are a step closer here but there are a lot of in-between steps that we are missing like how we are going to power the laser (can our boards handle this/have the right connections or do we need to slap some auxiliary electronic board on and then figure out how to yell commands at it).
