Schematics

Schematic

this is the typical schematic for x,y,z - if you use micro step motor you need to connect a bridge on each pair of contacts for each driver. Image Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ok5O-GA6Va8

Code

Inkscape

In this software you design your image and your CNC strategies(tools-z axis parameters) and convert to G-code your images to be interpreted by Arduino

ugsplatform

In this software you control your machine and send to arduino the images processed by Inkscape

GRBL code

You need this software to be uploaded from arduino IDE to your Arduino, do this before connect your CNC shield, this is a MUST, otherwise you can damage your motor drivers.
