I have seen people with this idea over the years but have not heard of any success- you could be the first! Please keep us in the loop.

Yes, I just got mine working this week on my 9 year old Rabbit.

What make/model did you use for a stepper motor and drive?

I have thought of doing this also.

You mean the rotary? It is this one. https://rabbitlaserusa.com/index.php?ro ... duct_id=94

The driver I used is the same as what came in my Rabbit for the X and Y. Its a Leadshine DM442.

Here is a pic I took of the Ruida connected from the U axis to the U axis driver.
