New: The wire EDM extension is working

About the G-EDM

The G-EDM is a multi axis electrical discharge CNC machine that enables you to cut any kind of steel with just some electricity and water.
EDM uses tiny electrical discharges to cut conductive materials and is a silent and precise way to create all kinds of shapes out of almost any kind of metal.

* Developement is not always as fast as it could be if you're poor. You want to donate something? 
* Paypal: paypal.me/gedmdev
* Bitcoin: bc1q9akp00a5hceh9n3jc9wfttxuwuk9c7da0sqkr8
* Donations will be used for yoga stress relief sessions with joss sticks, thai massages, medication, therapy and burnout treatment
* Some of your donations will be directed to the GRBL core developer team to support their great work. They may be happy about some yoga sessions too.

WARNING

An activated carbon airfilter is highly recommended. The spark of EDM can evaporate metals and may create some amount of metal fumes. It is also recommended to use gloves to handle the dirty water. If a waterfilter is used it may be a good advice to not open it after it fully dried out due to the super tiny metal particles created by EDM.

G-EDMs health tip: Don't smoke or drink metal.

The G-EDM

This picture is not up-to-date. A lot has changed. The variable 30v bench PSU is not needed anymore and has been replaced by a 12v PSU that is mounted within the spark generator. This build can be used as single axis sinker/drill EDM but also as multiaxis CNC. Both is possible.

The old controlpanel has been replaced by a nice looking one with better cable management.

For those interested in a raw, low cost and cool looking desktop edm machine I can highly recommend to take a look at the picoEDM from @alextreseder
