This is nice looking, I knew it caught my eye for a reason ("Oh, that front Y brace is Talos-like... yeah bit of an understatement...). Is this a...
Nice! I've been working on a 2' x 4' x 2' version of my Cohesion 3D printer frame design for a client, it looks somewhat similar frame wise...
The sky scraper is easily avoided with a filament guide tube, much like how makerbot does it. In the future, I'd like to put the spool on the...
Hey Chris! I think I know you from somewhere... Doesn't this look a lot like Justin's DoubleWide gMax? (Kyo, that's a complement, the three of...
Depending on how you go about it, dealing with only one order may be cheaper than two separate ones, especially since he isn't in the USA. That...

The folks over at Donek have a great video on making a vacuum table, I recommend watching it if you haven't already: [MEDIA] Also, there's a DIY...
If you get a vacuum table going, you'd be killing 2 birds with one stone. Either way, I love the idea of multi-purposing a large build table like...
I'm in the same boat - I've been designing my electronics 3D printer (link) and haven't had time to build my 2' x 4' CNC. But now I need to mill...
Let's say I have GT2 belt mounted inside an extrusion and a carriage. But because I need the carriage to be light, I can't mount a motor onto it....

Dual carriages on an OX solve all the problems, as long as one can make the necessary firmware changes to implement them. A carriage on one end...
Pololu is the official source. They have the A4988 which is what I use in my 3D printers, and there is also the DRV8825 for higher current...
Loving it!
Oh, I'm not complaining - I'm just setting the expectation that I'll do it this way, correctly, but in the future.
Thanks for the information. The $100 to ship is a bit unsettling, but that just means I have to do it right in the future. Everything I want to...
Glad to see such a powerful laser. I've been wanting to put a laser onto the gantry of the CNC router I'm building right now. What does the SDZ...
