Holpefully I'll be doing some more assembly this weekend :)
@Edadmartin I've built many machines over the years. I'd be happy to help design something for you
@stargeezer The machining error was local issue :)
Update! Basic frame is built and leveled. Shown with 1/4" MIC6 plate that I got on 6/4/16 Update! Machining error has me shut down, but managed...
Unfortunately I'm at a stand still because of machining error.
Can someone use this stuff? 3) 3/8-10 single start acme rod 36" 4) matching dumpster CnC nuts 4) dumpster CnC 1/4-1/4 couplers 4) nema 17...
@Jonathon Duerig That is just the blue protective film on the cast plate. A spoil board, jig or fixture will go on top of the tooling plate....
Barry Danks published a new build: C-Beam inspired CnC Router (1000x750) Approx 90mm of Z travel Read more about this build...
@Mark Carew During assembly I have noticed the same thing. The 1mm shim is thicker than the stop in the mini wheels, but the standard size...

Yeah but most of my fixtures that I use already have locating pins :) So I'd have to redo them
I'm kinda at an impass. I've always used MIC6 plate for my builds for the table which allow for fixturing anywhere and the use of locating pins...
@Jonathon Duerig Looks like a nice system. I was thinking of it being stand alone no pc to run it though :)
I'm actually working on a traverse system with digital readout using C Beam, stepper driven an encoder spur gear and rack :)
I'm actually working on a design that has a linear digital readout :) stepper controlled using C beam but using a different metric rod :)
Mark I'd stay with the same design as the original except make the Y out 750mm C Beam ;) ;just my .02
Exactly what I was going to comment on
I use an old 1 1/2 paint brush and alcohol
I too am building a hybrid C Beam :)
No definetely not my first build. I have a tendancy to over engineer stuff...but it's solid and always lasts...:) Gecko 540 24V PSU 284oz nema...
