Ah... I think some of us were confused as to what you were asking. I had when you were talking about an enclosure, you meant the entire machine....
There are various approaches to ventilation. I went fairly simple for my ACRO / Diode laser build. I've got a couple of large volume fans in...
Like Giarc mentioned, I use my Diode laser to engrave items that are vary greatly in thickness, from a few mm to several cm. The laser has a...
I can't say for sure how much weight you can put on it, but several people on here, including myself, have added a Z axis to the ACRO. If you...
It does say it will work with any GRBL 1.1 controller, but you may have to make your own cable. It's just more plug and play compatible with...
I do hope that one of the "extra functionality from your Interface" that the WiFi can be used for will be to remotely upload a job to Interface....
Nice. I'm going to give one a shot on my Lead. Maybe keep the laptop a little more dust free now.
As far as hold down goes, I've had a to a few larger pieces of acrylic. I used some small pieces of double sided duct tape spaced out under the...

Yes, there are lots of parts! It was an interesting build.

Camera is what I ended up going with on my enclosure. I've got goggles if I need to open it up when running, but I've placed a $25 Wyse camera...
I just started playing with a CNC earlier this year. I didn't want to sink too much money into bits that I may break while I was just learning....
You're most likely going to reducing the quality of the 3D prints by trying to sling around this much weight on the gantry. Typically, one of...
If you search around a bit, you'll see where this has been discussed a few times before. But the short answer is yes, it is possible. The one...
I've only used mine once so far, and didn't have an issue, but if I need to, I'd probably just throw a piece of masking tape over the far corner...
What software are you using to control the CNC? I'll go with the assumption you're using OpenBuilds CONTROL software. The process of streaming...
You can go thicker then 1/8" with 40W. I've done a bunch of 1/4" birch ply with a 40W. 1 pass, no charring. Might be able to go more, but I've...
Not just you two. I've had the same issue on at one machine. Just checked a second machine that I rarely use Control on. It was running .215....
I would drop money tomorrow on a CO2 build kit if it was offered!
