No additional drivers where needed to communicate with the arduino nano clone.\nNever tried out the original firmware so I have no clue how this would have worked.\nI'm pretty happy with Laserweb and Grbl.\n\n## Software\n- [Grbl 1.1](https://github.com/gnea/grbl)\n- [Laserweb 4](https://github.com/LaserWeb/LaserWeb4)\n\n## Setup\n0. Make sure to always wear Eye protection when working with the laser. It sometimes turns on the laser when you connect to it.\n1. Get arduino ide, clone grbl 1.1 and flash grbl. The firmware does not need to be changed.\n2. Get Laserweb 4 and connect to your laser.\n3. Once connected change the settings via the built-in terminal (you find my settings below)\n\n## Grbl Settings\n\n```\n$0=10      ;Step pulse, microseconds\n$1=25      ;Step idle delay, milliseconds\n$3=1       ;X axis direction inverted\n$10=0      ;send work coordinates in statusReport\n$30=255    ;max.
