I'm using 96t 12" blades from Frued/Diablo, and due to lack of cutting grease I use WD40, works perfect. No need for a high performance miter box...
Hi Rick, I think it's clear now why I used the screws with the head down and the lock-nut up; gives more clearance underneath the machine and it's...
Alright, after 3 months (I believe) I've got the bed of the machine in. It's 3/8" machined on both sides to 8.5mm. Spacing of the holes is 30mm....
@SamKircher, I'll be uploading the sketchup file next week, doing some detailing to shave some USD of the build (might save a whole 5USD there ;)...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] It's coming together well, easy to level the router with the bed. Now it needs the wasteboard (thinking...
Hello @Bad Sequel, Yesterday I put the base together but forgot to to take the camera with me. On Monday I hope to level the machine out but it's...
I agree with @dddman, Still, I'm doing tests at the moment with NEMA17 motors on a 1500mm gantry, but they are driven by 2A @ 24vDC and a single...
@Paul Stoller, knowledge is worth more than cash ;). -Ronald
Get AWG18, shielded, not just LED strip wires. Shielded will eliminate possibilities of interference with the spindle. On my personal builds I use...
I believe you want something that is impossible, like using the trunk of your car to transport 2 tons of load. The xPRo is based on a 2.5A peak...
[ATTACH] Not my photo but you get the idea ;)
I'm working on a test build, take a look at this: OpenBuilds Promoveo Study Builds It will have the base for the DW660 with some parts removed,...
I've listed the 20x20 1mm shorter, the gantry 20x60 is 443mm, my bad. The 20x20 can be 443mm as well. The DW660 and DW611 use different clamps....
The DW611 is a bit heavy on the V-Slot 20x60, but the DW660 should not be a problem. I never tried the DW611 on the Routy so it's hard to say. I...
You don't need a tool bigger than 1/8", and don't plunge so much, 0.5-1mm at a time. The DW660 comes normally with a 1/8" and 1/4" collet, the...
Hello @gianmarko, The gantry uses a 20x60x442 and a 20x20x442 V-Slot, the 20x20 reinforces the gantry at the back. This router should be able to...
I don't know Joe, but steel screws in aluminum should not be a problem even when they are outdoors. Think about engines of motorcycles and you...
Hello Chris, Get a GRBL shield and a DRV8825, will set you back between 10 and 15USD, that's the easiest way, alternatively you can just jumper...
I mixed up PSI and BAR, my bad, so the pump can provide about 1/3kW and not 5kW. It was just a quick search on e-Bay. There are cheaper pumps that...
Well, I just looked at a pressure washer pump suggested by @snokid and it can do up to 3000PSI for 200USD, with a 0.2mm nozzle and a relative...
