After many years of desiring a CNC router, but being stymied by my location (shipping is a nightmare here), I've finally found a design that fits...
Zootalaws published a new build: This is a 1500 x 1500 1500 x 2500 Ox build Read more about this build...
Really? I guess if you don't draw accurately, it delivers an inaccurate DXF file, but I use SketchUp and Autocad and the files are interchangeable...
Yep. You have no idea of the cost of parts and shipping. When I lived in the UK I complained about both - I would love to have UK prices (and...
A high-hp one. The Kress 1050FME would probably handle it well enough - or a 3HP router with a Super-PID type speed controller.
I looked at so many rack and pinion machines - but getting the hardware has proven very difficult (at my price point). Compared to rack, belt is...
Thanks for the offer... ;)
Believe me, I have thought about it - but before there's a market you need to generate an interest and an actual knowledge of what is possible....

I see. You are a wonder with the hands, Anthony :) One thing I noticed when researching GT3 belts is that the EU/Asia/Aus/NZ gets a much better...
The DRV8825s seem to have some grunt and they fit the 'Pololu' pattern, so can be used with quite a few shields....
I'm confused Anthony (easily done!) The belt you showed is, according to gates, 15mm wide. So either you used a stock picture and the belt you...
Top build, Jonny. I think I need a dedicated stand as well - I was going to use my workbench, but I still need a workbench :)
@Jonny Norris Great info, thanks. I don't think I am in a position to be able to make additional plates, until I make the machine, but then, it is...
You can get a BBB from Element14 or RS Components in the Philippines...
