Large floor or wall mounted plotter design.

A posi-drive leveling printer in 300x300x380mm format that easily breaks down for suitcase size shipping.

I'm new to this whole process, so this is a build by a newbie for newbies.

The OX-Metal is based on the original OX CNC mill But with a few modifications and add-ons

Contains a further modification to Creality's poor CR-10 design

Z-Axis upgrade with linear rails, SFU1204 Ball Screw and full aluminium construction.

Based on the WorkBee CNC, this is an oversized router built with a specific use-case in mind, for manufacutring beehives, and beehive components

The plasma CNC that I have built has a water table that measures 1350mm x 650mm. The water is flooded onto the cut area while cutting and recycled around with a pump. This is to reduce smoke, cool the metal being cut to reduce distortion and also to keep sparks to a minimum. Most of the machine has been made from aluminium , the frame and table from steel, the water table, stainless steel.

Ventilator prototype based of OpenBuilds Stock parts

Two plus years in the making, I finally have a working ACRO 510 laser engraver system complete with enclosure and air filtration.

Custom painting machine in designed and wrote the software for. Paintings are with acrylic color on canvas

Current progress uses existing openbuilds bearings, but also uses 8mm shafts (custom)

This build is about a model train lift in a secure and dust free storage. It is a roll on/roll off concept for a model train layout.

A sun cutter only using mirror and glass balls with x and y table movement

This is a work in progress ACROS build with new legs and wire tracks.

This is a lead 1010 build that I wanted to have a little fun with. I purchased the whole Lead 1010 kit, and felt like studying a few shortcomings of the original to see if I can improve it or just have some fun with it.

Larger format FDM printer using C-Beam linear stages

A new design of my based on a couple different machines I have seen both on openbuilds and youtube. In the end will have a and X/Y workspace of 1250mm x 1000mm and a Z axis range of about 200mm.

What I'm doing is pretty self explanatory. I've put a few pictures up

Just ox cnc experiment

Super solid core xy build inspired by the e3d tool changer

SLA resin printer based on a gen3/4 iPad Retina display. The design intent is to create a printer with the highest resolution possible with a lower cost of entry compared to DLP projector based SLA printers.

History about making 3d printer.

So for my senior project I decided to build a CNC router. I kind of need to get this done before May so we'll see what all goes down. It's going to be a 3 axis machine (for now) and will be able to handle 4x8 sheets of wood. This is my first build. It's going to be intresting..

Based on D-Bot but used more metal bracing / openbuild plates instead of plastic parts. Also size was increased.

Behemoth cnc router build in progress using hiwil rails and closedloop servos.

I added the steel to create a less flexible milling surface to make heavier cuts in aluminum. I can also do light steel cutting now as well. I wish OpenBuilds made a steel and rail version of these kits.

The plan is to make this a fairly stock D-Bot build. We'll see if mods start creeping in.

MiniMill with DW611 and SmoothieBoard 4x v1.1

So I thought I would make the Leon van den Beukel version three 3D printed CNC Machine, it is the third incarnation so you would expect a relatively bug-free CNC Machine with a strong foundation.

This will be my second CNC build but this time a proper CNC not a small desktop model that I played with for a while to learn Gcode, It was great but now its time to start playing with the big boys and girls.

Building a Phlat based CNC for MDF processing. Capacity of 48" x unlimited length.

Workbee, 1000mmX750mm , from China

My First major improvement was changing the controller to a Acorn board. I loved the way a dedicated userinterface was speeding up my workflow. Next project my Y Axis. On Aliexpress I ordered a couple of 16mm ballscrews and some lineair rail. Before I took my gantry off I quickly made some aluminium profiles to fit my carriages. Withouth any doubt these improvements where worth it

This is a build log of the Openbuilds Sphinx 55 with some 3D printed parts for the electronics and probably other parts as they come up.

2in1 ( 3dPrint+laser Engraving )

I am building a Sphinx 55 from the bones of my old C-Beam machine. Rising from the ashes so to speak.

A version of TrueUp using linear bearings/rods for the Z axis. This required enough modification to make a separate OpenBuilds project to avoid confusion for DIYers.

Cartesian type 3d printer build

An Openbuilds replacement rail system for the common eBay "K40" C02 Laser Cutter

CoreXY printer heavily inspired by e3d's new open source printer with tool changing. I intend to make it so when e3d start selling toolheads these can be added to the machine without any major work having to be done.

This cnc milling machine is 3 meters by 30 meters,

I'm conducing guitar loudspeaker cabinet fabrication technique research (material type/thickness, mechanical joints, adhesives, etc) and how these relate to cabinet/speaker coupling and enclosure resonance with respect to psycho-acoustics. Basically, does one speaker cab sound better than another and why?

This will be a build Log for my Open Builds Workbee 1010 Build. I will keep a full descriptive log of the build and make any notes in the hope that it will help other builders that decide they would like to build this machine.

Just starting a miter saw stop system. Any suggestions appreciated.

At the moment this build is in progress, I will be updating the files as I finish the remainder of the machine. This machine is intended to be a multipurpose CNC, but a bit bigger than a desktop unit. The machine is scalable in the X and Y axis.

This is a totally original build of an od id grinder and thread grinder, I hope.

I used the cad designs for the c beam to find a solution to my initial sourcing problem. I figured that I could use 2x 20x20 and 1x 20x80 Profil to create a c beam actuator. I sourced all of the profiles from a local machin builder and t-nuts and screws in my local hardware store. Some parts are currently in 3d printed pla for testing reasons.

The Feedback Fractal Project (Project) - building "A Monument For Our Time." As its intent is to build a monumental sculpture, the Project will produce an object d'art. Yet, once begun, the Project has evolved a life and character of its own. I continue to follow the thread woven by the materials, the processes, and the people that come to it and in the end the work will not only be a faithful rendition of an image and a concept, it will also be a tapestry of the story of its making.

Upgrading my CNC router to run on ball screws. Me and the belts where not getting along.

Large 2 foot x 3 foot x 4.5 foot build volume Core XY printer build in process at this point. I am designing everything from scratch and using typincal parts bought from amazon for the build.

20x26x28 inch Build Volume CoreXY. Unlike many builds, I've decoupled the XY movements from the Z-Axis lead screws to help prevent Wobble, will be using linear guide rails, and mains powered bed heater, and a bed that is Allowed to thermally grow. This build is JUST narrow enough to fit through a standard sized doorway.

Large format laser build for Student use at my school as well as some personal use.

This is a WorkBee 1000x1000mm with lead screws and Nema17's. It has a reduced footprint, with the geared Nema's inside the frame.

I've used the good work of Openbuilds & expanded it to suit.

The tale of how we put together our CNC Router, and some of the difficulties encountered. It is now ready for final testing and commissioning.

This is about my build of a Workbee 1000X1000 being built here in Trenton, SC. My goal is to use it to help cut the new panel for my RV6A airplane.

The frame of the CNC is going to to Bee a basic Work Bee with maybe 1 modification to the spoil board attachment. This will be located on a custom bench housing the electronics and vacuum. I plan to install Stepper online steppers, drivers, power supplies, and break out board. I will add a 1.5 KW water cooled spindle, with a radiator. The fans from the radiator will pull air from a filtered enclosure for all the electronics.

i had the ox build and wanted to do a more beeffer style so i went with a workbee style machine ..

A CoreXY/Bowden design with a belt driven Z axis. This is a box design without the front end of the box, making the print area and maintenance, like changing a nozzle, easily accessible.

A 750mm x 1000mm Core XY Laser Etcher/Cutter. To cut down on cost I tried to have as many parts as possible be printed.

Thanks to all the Open Build elves that meticulously package and wrap all the little tiny parts and pieces. I have put in a request to get you people a raise..

A functional table for plasma cutting, welding, tooling........

My very first openbuilds cnc machine. Followed along DaztheGas's Spartacus build.

Dirt cheap build.

For a schoolproject we decided to build this large format CNC-machine. The greatest part of the mechanics were sourced from OpenBuilds.

SLA LCD 3D Printer ( 8.9'' LCD screen )

My build is to allow me to cut foam wings using CNC Hot Wire Cutter.

Starting the next Laser build, Plan to complete within 60 days.

Been playing around with an MPG Jogwheel

This is an experiment to build a Linear Delta Printer using four towers instead of three. Primary reasons: 1. Build area is roughly cubic vs roughly cylindrical 2. Greater speed and precision from additional control provided by fourth tower. 3. Symmetric kinematics from even number of towers.

A dual head PNP machine that uses Openbuilds hardware, a Smoothieboard controller, dual camera vision, automatic/drag feeders, and OpenPnp.

Build a 2x72 Belt Grinder out of OpenBuilds V-Slots

I will update this as I go, cad files upon request. My x beam is basically a belt driven r7

Core-XY build witha quad nozzle

Build Notes: Here are all the parts necessary to re-produce this design. Please note, all of the parts are either sourced through openbuilds or have been selected and printed from thingiverse.

Workbee 1010 Lead Screw with water cooled spindle and enclosure

A table top OpenBuilds MiniMill build. 48V 52mm spindle with ER11 collets.

Inpired by the OpenBuilds OX and PrintrBot Crawlbot. This is the LimpyCNC. It's still a work-in-progress. But it provides a 120x120cm work space without using up 150x150cm of garage space.

I never thought owning a CNC machine was possible until I stumbled upon the Openbuilds site. After viewing numerous builds I was drawn to the Ox by Mark Carew but ultimately decided on a build of similar design, Halloumi by Savvas. It's a C-beam design driven by Nema 23 steppers with Acme lead screws. Like Savvas I will be fabricating temporary plates to get up and running then use the machine to mill the final plates. The material I'm using for the temp plates is solid surface (Avonite).

This is my first CNC router build. I want to gain basic CNC building experience so I can go on to build other items such as a frosting or pancake printer.
