One part down. Fits perfectly. [ATTACH]
What started as a temporary solution for me, but has been used for three years now is a cooling rack for cookies like this. Choice 10" x 18" Full...
I think the Cbeam may be easier. It should just be all off-the-shelf components. Just look at the LEAD 1010 Build video to see what you need, or...
I was thinking of mounting mine to mdf and building an enclosure where the back panel could slide up and out. If I want to engrave a surface of a...
Thank you! I plan to build this soon. I have an old 0.9 degree stepper from a inkjet printer I may try to incorporate into this for the rotary,...
If you do the version Daz made, or any with aluminum plates, instead of recessing the bearings in pockets and using shaft lock collars for the...
DazThegas did a great lead screw mod as well and I like how the X axis lead screw is up high out of the way and no 3D printed parts that I...
There is also this more direct conversion OX-Metal CNC Router Mill and this one Tall OX
I built an Ox like that using lead screws. You need to make custom plates which is much more complicated. Or replace the X, Z, and 2 Y axis with...
I would think that it should not matter too much. I grew up where it would routinely get into negative numbers on the F scale. My dad built...
Also, a single flute upcut endmill has worked the best for me. Acrylic seems picky to me. HDPE is so much easier and forgiving. It is one of my...
In September 2020 a huge windstorm blew over a portion of my fence and then in February of 2021 an ice storm was kind enough to provide me with...
It is hard to describe. My dad used me as slave labor :) as a youngster in his cabinet shop so I just kind of learned to tell by ear on some...
I have absolutely no issues cutting 2500mm/min (100 IPM) at 1/2 the endmill diameter, so 1/8" for a 1/4" endmill. I keep my rpms in the 10000 to...
Ok, so now I have got to try this. I am more aggressive with the 6.35mm endmills. The 1/8" have always scared me too cut more than about 0.3mm...
You can buy a screw shield that plugs into your arduino which makes hooking everything up much easier. Then, follow one these diagrams (C-Beam cnc...
My z axis is 500 mm. I believe I just ordered a 500mm linear actuator from the OpenBuilds parts store. It helps to line up the x axis because it...
I use metric as well. The math is so much easier. In my mind I can picture what 0.5 mm is, my brain just can't wrap around dividing an inch into...
Wow! I fell behind on this one somehow. This build is great! I may use the drill chuck idea for a small rotary for my K40 for pens, but I think a...
This will be interesting. I will be following the progress since I am doing something similar. I am doing this: K40 12x24in rebuild (In Original...
