How did you calibrate the machine? With a very pointy V-bit, or a round endmill? You said you got it as close as possible. With a pointy bit run...
Thank you for the link to the file! Also thank for the tip of removing it.
Totally off topic, but I am very interested in your pen mount. Do you have files for it? I looked on Thingiverse, but my searches failed. I like...
This is awesome! Thanks. I prefer STEP so this works out great.
I have mine plugged into a ceiling outlet above the machine. There is plenty of cord to move everywhere without being in the way.
One part down. Fits perfectly. [ATTACH]
What started as a temporary solution for me, but has been used for three years now is a cooling rack for cookies like this. Choice 10" x 18" Full...
I think the Cbeam may be easier. It should just be all off-the-shelf components. Just look at the LEAD 1010 Build video to see what you need, or...
I was thinking of mounting mine to mdf and building an enclosure where the back panel could slide up and out. If I want to engrave a surface of a...
Thank you! I plan to build this soon. I have an old 0.9 degree stepper from a inkjet printer I may try to incorporate into this for the rotary,...
If you do the version Daz made, or any with aluminum plates, instead of recessing the bearings in pockets and using shaft lock collars for the...
DazThegas did a great lead screw mod as well and I like how the X axis lead screw is up high out of the way and no 3D printed parts that I...
There is also this more direct conversion OX-Metal CNC Router Mill and this one Tall OX
I built an Ox like that using lead screws. You need to make custom plates which is much more complicated. Or replace the X, Z, and 2 Y axis with...
I would think that it should not matter too much. I grew up where it would routinely get into negative numbers on the F scale. My dad built...
Also, a single flute upcut endmill has worked the best for me. Acrylic seems picky to me. HDPE is so much easier and forgiving. It is one of my...
In September 2020 a huge windstorm blew over a portion of my fence and then in February of 2021 an ice storm was kind enough to provide me with...
It is hard to describe. My dad used me as slave labor :) as a youngster in his cabinet shop so I just kind of learned to tell by ear on some...
I have absolutely no issues cutting 2500mm/min (100 IPM) at 1/2 the endmill diameter, so 1/8" for a 1/4" endmill. I keep my rpms in the 10000 to...
Ok, so now I have got to try this. I am more aggressive with the 6.35mm endmills. The 1/8" have always scared me too cut more than about 0.3mm...
