Yes, give me a few and i’ll get the maker files updated to include the new design and shoot an email to all the file-owners about the update.
@Daniel
Thanks for updating
Looks awesome!! Thanks for sharing!
@Chris
I did have another question. How do you calculate x,y,z on the rotary? (sorry if I already asked this…I scanned through but couldn’t find it)
@chris never mind i found it
jay
Let me know if i can be of further assistance
That is a really awesome idea!!
Is the PwnCNC rotary plug-and-play with the Masso (Onefinity Elite), or will I need to physically alter and/or add something on/to the Masso and/or the PwnCNC rotary?
For those of you who have set this up, what did you end up spending above and beyond the cost of the rotary to get a pair or rails set up?
Its as plug and play as it can be.
You’ll need to make the connections between the rotary and masso and program it. Its 6 wires, and instructions are found above:
I believe I spent $30 or $40 on a set of 4 of 2020 aluminum extrusion but only used half of it. I like @MstrODstr setup more than my own, and may consider doing it here fairly soon.

Yeah, I leaned heavily on Chris’ learnings as well. I just took a piece of 3/4" plywood and milled it down (using my cnc for accuracy) such that there is a ridge running lengthwise down the center the same width as the recess on the bottom of the head/tail stocks (see my picture post earlier in this thread). This ensures proper alignment of head/tail stock. Then, I milled slots for the t-track on either side of the ridge (going down 1/2") as well as lowering the flat sections on the outside of the t-tracks (1/8") such that the t-tracks (which are 3/8" tall) sit flush with the outside sections (1/8" below the ridge in the center). The t-track that I used came in 12" sections so I bought 4 off of Amazon for just a few bucks.
This came into the ticketing system, and I was asked to post and respond so other people can learn too.
Steve has a couple of things going on here:
First the post processor, I don’t know if the A-Axis is included with that so therefore I don’t know if he can even use it, and he doesn’t mention his CAD Software. My experience is with Vectric, so I can only speak of my experience with Vectric.
The intent of his question relates to the post processor and how masso will utilize it. With Vectric it is only capable of using 3 axis at any given time, again I don’t know if other software is the same, also the rotary does not go more than 360 degrees, so it’ll go 0-360-0 or in my case, I have the A-Axis increment and have it travel left, right, left on the X Axis.
If you command a feed rates rotational speed that is greater than the rotational speed possible, it will slow everything else down. This is the same with XYZ where if you command a feed rate of 10,000 IPM, it will not get there, but you’re telling it to go full speed all the time in that toolpath, and who knows, you may break something.
I do my XYZ 3d carves at 400/400ipm, it does not get there unless I have a flat spot, but I’m essentially telling it to go as fast as possible.
I’ve been asked a few times for my chess set files. They can be found here:
I also have a Kylo Ren model, but not sure who he should be (it would dictate scale) since Maul, Vader and Sidious are already well placed… Although he is a drama queen
and people who stuck to the movies/TV Shows don’t know who Lumiya is.
Yoda takes planning.

Another link. this one to google drive which might be easier.
Looks like the Noneifity rotaries are a big fat lemon! How hilariously poetic ![]()
Hello, I am currently shopping around for rotaries and I dont see many posts on here about them besides this chain. I realize asking this here might not be the best place but any downsides folks have found with the PWN one? It appears cheaper than the Onefinity offering which is always a nice plus ![]()
The only down side vs the onefinity one is that the onefinity one comes premounted on rails.
I mounted mine on an frame made of extrusion, don’t remember if i used 20mm or 25mm extrusion. My wasteboard has pieces that come out and i mount the rotary there in a repeatable location.
Factory mounting is offset by the larger availability that is given from pwn (100mm vs 80mm). My thinking, it’s better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.
I made the chess set, and a couple other projects with it, and it works great (once i tweaked the post processor to behave how i want)
I’ve been extremely happy with my pwn rotary. Better price, bigger chuck, and it’s nice not having the rails because I often do smaller pcs with no need for a tailstock which clears up a lot of real estate. My entire table is aluminum plate with a grid of mounting holes so it self aligns anywhere anytime. I would have regretted buying the 1F rotary for sure.
Thank you both for your experiences. I think having the bigger chuck is pretty valuable.
I am curious to see how that whole table being aluminum has been done.
