C-Beam - Sphinx 1000x1000mm inspired by Kyo

A stable CNC Router that allows me to cut and carve bigger Parts. The Machine is an original Build from Kyo's Sphinx CNC Machine. Thanks for the great Work and the Effort Kyo. Your Files and Lists helped me a lot to build that Sphinx 1x1m.

C-Beam Upgrade to Larger C-Beam

My goal was to be able to enlarge my C-Beam with as many original parts as possible. I was able to recycle almost all of them with a only the two 500 mm rails left over. I used 1000 mm rails for the X Axis and I added another complete Y Axis assembly. I chose to keep it simple and I am very happy with the result!

Shapeoko 1 upgrades

Replaced the original Z-axis for a shapeoko with a c-beam upgrade. This upgrade required a nema 17 mount and a quiet spindle mount I printed with a 3D printer.
C-Beam Machine XL

C-Beam XL upgraded with end-stops, E-stop, and cable chain. Running GRBL on Arduino Mega.
1075 Sphinx

My first attempt at building a CNC. I chose the Sphinx due to ease of build and extensive documentation provided by Kyo.

FlashPoint CNC v1: 500mm x 1000mm 3-Axis CNC Router

My build is based on many different builds but pieced together into a unit specifically to suit my needs. The footprint, without motors, is around 500mm x 1000mm with a gantry height of around 250mm. I used a combination of C-Beam, for the linear transmission, and V-Slot for the base and gantry supports. Forged angle connectors were used for attachment and I utilized the C-Beam gantry cart kits with anti-backlash blocks for both Y axes, the X axis, and Z axis.

A More Rigid C-Beam

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.
Rise of the Sphoenix

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

Rack and Pinion Cartesian Mill

This is a rework of a previous build I did on here, a mostly printed cartesian CNC. Initially intended to just be an update to that, but so many things changed including the linear motion and every single part has been modified significantly that I felt as though it deserved a whole new build.
My C-Beam machine...

A C-Beam machine design, strengthened with extra brackets and plates. GRBL controlled, opto-isolated inputs, jogging box.
My C-Beam machine...from 500 to 1000mm base

C-Beam machine - 1000mm base.
Model train lift - scale HO

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.
Another C-Beam machine

This is basically a Sphinx variant with few changes of my own...hope it'll work.
My C-Beam build and modifications

Modified C-Beam which I plan to add a laser module and eventually convert to C-Beam XL size.
C-beam charmer

Double C-beam Y axis 500mm., Double 2080 X axis 600mm. , C-beam Z axis 250mm, TB-6600 drivers, MKS-DLC32v2 GRBL w/wi-fi and blue tooth
