The best I am going to be able to do is post models of the plates that will be used. I am not going to CAD model the machine assembly. The plates...
Parts list has been added. Plate drawings to be added soon!
CNCMD published a new build: Heavy Duty build with 1605 Ballscrew and Linear Rail Read more about this build...
Yes that is exactly why. On the bottom of the leadscrew page there are the actual lengths. I think the 500mm is actually 540, the extra 40mm...
Endmill Used - 2mm Full Disclosure - I did not create the file, this was found on Thingiverse and I converted the DXF in Fusion 360. Furthermore,...
Even further evidence its not a software issue as the problem continues.
What has been done to ensure this is not machine related? Backlash, steps, etc. could all be at play here. I would make a 2x2 square, and see how...
TR8 - All parts were purchased from the parts store.
I thought tap water was a bad idea due to the potential for rusting the spindle.

Just wanted to provide an update, I've had some good success lately with the machine. Got my first aluminum parts cut. Cutting aluminum is...
Further updates: Ok so, I finally caught onto the fact regarding the use of a dial indicator over a rule. I would say there is as much...
No offense taken, I'm laughing at myself. I can tell you that now the 3.175mm bit cuts exactly 3.175mm. So that takes the variance in the bit...
1) Yes apparently so. I don't know how much that is contributing to any error rates that I'm getting. But again, the only error I can see is on...
Thank you for the input, I'm trying to learn as much as I can. Here is some additional fun facts that might play into things. 1) My spindle...
