RE: Syncing 2 tables to mirror

We don't have that capability built into our software. In addition, your coffee table, being larger than the side table, would have to run the "synced" track faster.

Syncing 2 tables to mirror

How can I sync two tables to mirror each other. I have a coffee table and a side table, but would them to do the same thing simultaneously?

Could you please send me the ssh credentials as well.

RE: Request - Table firmware/SD Card Image

Glad you were able to find an older firmware image and get the table running again. It is always a good idea to keep a backup copy of the SD card image once everything is working, along with any settings or calibration files. While you have it back up and running, it may also be worth checking the moving parts, rails, and backing bearings for smooth operation since a stored or moved machine can sometimes develop issues unrelated to the firmware. Hope the update goes smoothly and you get back to creating soon!

Losing an SD card can be frustrating, especially when the machine depends on specific firmware and settings. It is also a good time to go through the mechanical side of the table, checking the rails, belts, and tbs bearings to make sure everything moves smoothly after being stored or transported. A little preventative maintenance now can help avoid bigger problems later.

RE: 2 ball tracks

If your table is capable of running two balls, then any / every track can be run with two balls. However, the second ("tail") ball draws the inside out version of the "head" ball's track. Figurative tracks -- containing recognizable objects, text, logs, etc. -- will look like a mess. But most algorithmic tracks (abstract geometry, e.g. spirals) can look great with two balls.

Can every track run 2 balls or is just certain ones?

Found someone elsewhere that provided an old firmware to get it going. updating now.
All the best to you sand artists.

Request - Table firmware/SD Card Image

joshua.j.gabel — Mon, 05 Jan 2026 19:48:43 +0000

When moving somehow the SD card for my table got lost. I have since purchased a 16GB class10 card but don't have the firmware/SD image to make the replacement card. I have scoured the forum and troubleshooting sections of the website with no luck finding a non-dead link to an Image. Support is out for vacation till tomorrow and today is the only one I have off work to mess with this. If anyone has a link to an image, even an old one I would be forever grateful!
