I completely understand your objective but ER20 is a bit excessive. Even an ER16 is more than an OX will handle. You just won't be able to make...
Phoenix CNC Controller GRBL 1.1e GRBL Panel 1.0.9.15 I have the "Coolant" and its associated ground going through a JQC-3F(T73) relay. The relay...
I haven't made an update in forever, but the machine is still running strong. I did have a little whoopsie, but nothing a few replacement wheels...
Linear motion: I don't have any experience with belts, nor do I plan to ever have any. Lead/ball screws are far more stable. That eliminates the...
There are still a bunch of other factors to consider, such as bed height, run out, end mill length (deflection), bed material, hold downs, etc......
I primarily cut aluminum. My speeds are up to 1000mm/min with depths ranging on the process. I'll ramp into a climb cut at 1.8mm with a diamond...
I haven't really looked back at this due to financial reasons. I've been using my little Bosche without much of an issue. My biggest problem is...
The load isn't the weight of the spindle though. The load is the force as a result of cutting. None of which would be directly up or down unless...
If you are considering ordering, then take a look at the 3/8", 10mm, 12mm, or 1/2" options. The 1/2"is the most common.

Am I going crazy? I just posted a link to his openbuilds account. Chris Laidlaw If it disappears again, can someone please tell me why? And...
If this is just making sure things are square, there is enough play in most setups to do that.
Is it something you want a pro shop to do? If not, there are plenty of hobbyist that can do it. What thickness is required? I have to did for...
6lbs 6oz
That 250mm Z travel will kill your build. That's a 10" plunge. Unless you go with an i-beam structure, I doubt the openrails will be able to...
I also use 269oz. The required torque is more based on what you're cutting. I'm sure that ~80oz or even less will work perfectly fine cutting...
If you really are unsure about (what appears to be) everything, you should be going for a build that has been done a million times. The C-Beam is...
"oh"-flute, not quite zero-flute :D Much different profile made to literally scoop material. They work great on higher rpm or heat sensitive...
