We need more information on the intended purpose of this machine.
The assembly order is shown on the wheel kit order page in the store. (Sorry the image is so big.) [IMG] Got any photos of your progress so far?
@Torslen, the DXF files are in millimeters and are to scale. The only really critical spacing is the center/center of the opposing wheels. At...
Plates showing relevant spacings attached. I have not worked with C-beams yet so all spacings shown are based on information provided to me that...
Start up a conversation with @Chris Laidlaw, he does plates for hire. He should already have the OX plates properly modified for C-beam systems....
It was all discussed here.
Peter, please view everything I have shown as purely representational. Nothing was truly sized, parts were merely dropped in to give you an idea...
Here's a concept for dust collection and micrometer. [ATTACH] Dust collection is pretty much standard. You'll need access to a 3D printer....
The 40mm depth of the Z-axis allows you to add another free moving carriage on the front side. [ATTACH] And by attaching the mount to that free...
Peter, it looks like you are headed in the right direction so far. The C-beam Z-mount may actually allow you do both mounts in one. Let me...
This sounds like a simple arduino driven X-Y frame. How heavy will the camera be, including all attachments? Can you give us an idea of the...
I'm not aware of Openbuilds offering any services like that but you'd have to ask Mark. But those threads can easily be cleared out with a hand...
That would work fine. The plates are 1/4" thick so you need to make sure the 1/2" thickness of two plates is not a problem. The bolt heads are...
Not sure where you are located but if you're in the US you can get them on ebay from Nevada. They are a couple bucks more due to the shipping but...
Tom, If you decide to keep the mini-Vs and need to go with a back to back scenario, you might consider using a mini-V plate on the back. The...
Interesting approach. You need to achieve a center-center spacing of approximately 31.9mm.
Sorry but the holes on the standard gantry plate are spaced for the large wheels. The only plate (that I'm aware of) for use with the mini-V...
Sounds reasonable. The next question would be size of the machine as gantry weight and travel distance/speed also affect workability. But mainly...
Ultimately it depends on what you want to do with them. (They are also pre-drilled specifically for NEMA 23 mounting but that is easily overcome.)
Joe, its for milling microscopic depths uniformly across a surface. Ideal for PCBs. And you really don't even need to the surface perfectly...
