This OpenBuilds Mini Mill is a great go-to desktop sized CNC milling plate / part maker and 3D carving machine!

Upgrade your Minimill with an off-set Z Axis Motor

Transformation of an OpenBuilds Mini Mill into a convertible 3D printer / CNC mill with interchangeable tooling. Maybe a bonus conversion TBD.

Using most of the parts of the MiniMill, and adding a few other parts (cost < $200), transforms the MiniMill into a very capable machine. Final build area as shown is 10.25" x 16". With a custom Y-plate, I will take it to 10.25" x 20-24".

First time CNC user having a good time with a MiniMill

The search for an affordable hobby 5 axis machine.

The Tiger Paw will be a 1000mm X 500mm Cartesian style CNC with the Minimill attached to the end. It is named the D&R Tiger Paw because my son, Daniel, and myself, Richard, will put this Tiger strong and fast machine together. Our goal is to have a Tiger strong build with a Paw print that wouldn’t take up a huge amount of space in our garage.

I ordered the OpenBuilds MiniMill from the OpenBuilds Parts Store http://openbuildspartstore.com/ They were out of Motors and Electronics when I ordered so I had to source these items elsewhere. But it turned out well doing it this way.

My Minimill hit the gym, and isn't so mini anymore

A beefed up minimill, ready to gnaw on some aluminum! HG15 linear rails, a thick heavy column, bellows and easy fixturing and tramming.

A quick little mini mill build

Minimill bundle, but with an extended X Axis

This is a slightly-modified OpenBuilds minimill with some more Y travel and a v-slot table.

An attempt at copying the https://openbuilds.com/builds/makersl-msl-8-ob-vise.4084/ using just off-the-shelf OpenBuilds Parts - no machining

This is my first build and I've been waiting to do this for a very long time.

All-in-one OB Minimill

Another MiniMill, different to the OpenBuilds version and potentially more flexible because of the design.

The new MiniMill from Mark and Sonny is a great little machine.
