dakman published a new build: Just an idea right now but will attempt a prototype in the near future. Not sure if this has been tried before or...
Found some 2"x6"x0.125" aluminum tubing. I'm going to try to make this axis housing to work on any axis. It will have 8 outside reach V-wheels...
what's a good search statement for good results?
40x80 sure would handle the load much better
where can I find the 1500mm lead screw? Openbuilds offers a 1000mm unit but nothing for the 1500mm length... anybody have a source? Thanks!
with 4 bolt holes, I would think it is 80mm in the vertical.
in your V-build _2 image, It looks like 40x80 stock running in the Y-axis..... yet yo say it's 40x20.... I'm old and confused now....
Where did you find 40x80 v-material used in your Y-axis, it's not on the openbuilds list of rail material?
You must have read my mind.... I too would like to build a 1500mm square unit. Would it be possible to get the drawings for your plates? I would...
I too am thinking large and would lime to build something like yours... I'll be following your progress.... nice job!
Thanks guys. .. Haven't quite decided just how big yet but will definitely look at your suggestions. Keep me posted. ..
I'd like to be able to route out on a full 4x8 sheet of drywall... anyone build a unit that big? if so, please contact me...thanks!
Steven...When I open your dxf files..The scale is huge. . Can you give me a reference on the drawing so as to re scale to the proper scale? Thank...
Nice work Steven! Will leverage much of your design when you're done...
Hey all the great people are named Steve......hehehehehe
The other issue I see with using the internal rails in the y-axis, because the wheel support distance is very close together and with the x-axis...
That's what I thought ...the clearances required for the hardware will require some mods to holes, tapping or counter sink or bore. Thanks for...
How are you connecting the y-axis uprights at the rails? Can you you add an image of the area, close up?
