You can run as shown but it's not ideal. The full loop system you have shown will have significantly more stretch than a single run belt which...
Much better but you're still reaching down too much. I suggest taking a look at how the gantry on the OpenBuilds LEAD CNC Machine 1515 (60" x 60")...
You'll also need to bring the sides in. But let's start with the basic question, what sizes and thicknesses do you intend to cut?
Overall, I think you are setting yourself up for disappointment. Aluminum extrusions are nowhere near stiff enough to accommodate what you're...
The plastic slot covers may have been placed in the slots to prevent damage during shipping. They shouldn't be in any groove where wheels will be...
I haven't bought one in a couple years so I can't say off the top of my head. But according to the parts list yes, although you might want to...
No, it's not. You may have gotten the wrong eccentric spacers. They come in 6mm and 1/4". Look at the side of the eccentrics. You should have...
The actual usable area of the mini-mill is actually only 4.5"x4.5" so yes the extra 75mm of the Y-axis actuator that sticks out the front is...
1. Reduce your screws to 8mm. 10mm will bottom out in the channels. 2. Cast corner connectors should be fine. Strength is more than adequate and...
Read through the High Z Mod for Lead CNC. Within the first couple of pages you see how to reverse the axis beam to where the whole beam moves...

If you want to cut clear acrylic. More specifically if you really want to cut anything. Diode lasers have their limitations. Great for burning...
Your laser sees the clear acrylic as a window and the light passes right through without melting anything. CO2 lasers being on a different wave...
The design is fine for tiling. But I probably wouldn't go less than 1500x750 as that'll leave you 22.5" usable in the Y direction. The longer you...
Single start is like common screws where you have a single continuous thread. [ATTACH] In a 4-start screw there are actually 4 threads running...
V-Slot Gantry Plate - Universal are the only ones that work without modification. They'll work with 20, 40, 60, and 80mm widths
Do those use a single start lead screw?
With the aspect ratio of your plate, I would say it's probably a good idea especially if you plan to cut metal.
I'm at a loss for which axis you're calling the X axis. The only place I see 2 screws is under the bed and that's the Y axis (for which you...
The wider the grip laterally, the greater the rigidity of the mount and rigidity is everything when it comes to cut quality. While the external 60...
