A printer is the most logical, but although there is no official OB design, there are already a million other designs and kits. A lathe would be...
Haha, far from it. C-Beam is the largest for the V-Wheel linear motion. The V-Wheel system is based off of a 20x20mm grid. Commonly available...
Just get bigger extrusion that is made as one piece already. If you plan to bond it all with epoxy (or similar), you can even consider filling in...
I haven't mounted the z yet, but here is x and y. They will have cases over them to help aesthetically clean it up. The wires are also tucked...
Down or straight would be much better. See down a lot on laminated or thin cuts.
I can't see anyone getting much life out of it.
To be fair, anything unsupported is a bad idea. You have to design as a whole, not in pieces.
It's not the MDF he has a problem with. It's the lack of hold down solutions. Since I'll be making multiples of everything, I am making specific...
I use jacketed multi-conductor cables fora variety of things. It keeps everything clean and simple, as well as together but separated. This is...
I did get some cuts in yesterday, although no video like I said (couldn't find my phone). I unfortunately got some welding on an attempt to ramp....
You have to start by describing what's actually wrong. You can't just say "I have a problem" and expect everyone to know what to do.
40 series 8020 10 and 15 are imperial (1" and 1.5") 20, 25, 30, 40, and 45 are metric
I will have to disassemble the Z axis a bit. I secured the router mount with two bolts from the back of the plate as well as two angle brackets....
The new driver arrived today and the machine is running. There are some weird issues on the computer side still though. The next step is to get...
You might as well use 40 series with that gear.
If you aren't going to use v wheels, you might as well build up. The v wheel setup is waaaaay cheaper. I just went through all of the same...
It may not be a bad idea to add dual steppers for x. Those poor delrin nuts might wear down way too soon. One other possibility is to switch to...
The 2.2kW might be $40 more, but that's $40 wasted as it will probably exceed what the overall design of the machine can do, especially with a...
Worst case scenario is to just make your z axis longer. I built mine a bit differently, but the bottom of the z axis end plate is about 85mm away...
Haha. :ROFL: Ya I wasn't referring to travel waste. I meant actual build material waste. But keep in mind that longer lengths also reduce...
