I just saw the wiring video. The limit switch placement is killing a lot of travel. I made my own limit switch mounting plates, but you should...
The extrusion is on order! I also started recreated all of the plates in Fusion. A big issue I was having was nesting the plates. It took some...
I didn't even think about that. I'm pretty sure it's set to 1/16. I'll give it a shot.
These are actually THK. Everything needed is on page 37 and 38....
After replicating the Mod-Vise, I released that the build plate didn't have a dense enough pattern. So here's the updated table and vise....
Those rails are hardened steel. Drilling probably isn't the best idea. What exact rail do you have?
Chip thinning is something I've thought about, but I've never actually put it together with optimal load/stepover/RDOC. In order to compensate,...
Someone else running more than 250mm/min at 0.2mm DOC! Did we just become forum buddies? Your post made me go back and check "ideal" feeds and...
What do you consider shallow? I was cutting 900mm/min at 2mm DOC with 2mm stepover with a 1/4" diamond o-flute under flood, and 900mm/min at 9mm...
What is being used for the spindle/router? Or did I miss that? Weight could be a simple factor that shouldn't be overlooked.
Regarding the screws, I'm still on the fence. 1604, 1605, and 1610 all share the same nut dimensions. 1616 is larger by a tap, but I don't care...
Flexing isn't a problem with the end mill. It's your machine. You have to work around that by making lighter cuts. How much material are you...
You mention that you have been trying different cutters. What were they? What were the results? I use a 7/8" planing or "cleaning" router end mill.
I don't like to post concepts or ideas as there is almost a 100% chance of them not going anywhere, but this is one that I want to get moving very...
PC electronics should not exceed 90C. With proper built in fail safes, they even begin throttling themselves. Above 100C begins to get into the...
There is excess on the leadscrews. You can build the Sphinx with the lead screws under tension without changing a thing.
I'll second the 1/4 sheet size. It's more than just a money/time investment. It's also a space investment, which is a much greater factor than...
That guy got ripped apart in the comments. He probably spent double what he needed to for what he got. That aside...the most difficult part at...
This is a computer question. You have to state what you are trying to run Mach 3 on.
Fusion 360 let's you copy toolpaths to multiple work coordinate systems, so all you are doing is creating a single toolpath. It will save you...
