Other Rotary Setup Methods:
- Use an additional stepper driver and enable the U-axis on the Ruida 6445g using a firmware update that was released at the end of last year. However at the time of this video I was unable to get the update to function correctly. This may be because I’m a big dummy or because the firmware is still buggy. This would be the most practical method if you are able to get it working.

- The other method is to add in another stepper driver and use a switch to select which axis to drive. Link to my initial info: https://forum.lightburnsoftware.com/t/swapping-y-axis-from-gantry-to-rotary-with-a-switch/8388
