Congratulations Pek! Now your going to build a Sphinx CNC router right? Haha
Nice work! Very clean. I have a 3D printer that I built but haven't used it much lately. It's the Aluminum Ultimaker 2 clone from Thingiverse....
Hi Savvas, how's it going? I have a question for you. There is a person interested in building one of the machines he likes here on OpenBuilds....
If you buy your aluminum plate from a reputable supplier, even the 6061 or other extruded aluminum should be flat. It's not tooling plate but it...
Looking good man!!
Very cool! Casting is something I would love to learn. I would also like to learn more of 4th axis utilization. Thank you for sharing.
Your x axis should be 3mm over your desired length to account for gantry plate clearance.
My Z axis cbeam is 270mm
Yeah, i did mill the plates using the Sphinx and I'm really enjoying working on the new parts because there's really no pressure to get them done....
- This is the evolution of my Sphinx CNC router. I will try to keep the overall appearance. I am open to suggestions. - The machine will be...
It might even be 270. You basically just need enough space to completely move your spindle out of the way. Any longer than that is unnecessary.
I think it's either 280 or 300mm. I'll verify this when i get home.
One of those automotive "hook" type picks would probably pull one of the bearings out. Seriously though, I had a couple of the small wheels do the...
If you use something sharp, be careful not to stab your hand on the other side
I have an extra small wheel with bearings installed and it's definitely a tight fit but the shim inside moves back so you can get something up...
No secret there. I'd personally find a small shaft or bar (sub 5mm), pass it through the inner race of one bearing and press on the inner race of...
Try taking the bearing out of the wheels and flipping it around.
