I love the wagon wheel
I've even thought of using OSB to make the y-axis and gantries and then use the machine to cut replacements.
I need to do something. I'm tired of losing things that I spend 100's of hours finding. I started looking to see how I could connect a CNC to a SD card or thumb drive and operate it on a small...
I burned another file that I bought at the same time from the same seller and didn't have a problem with it, so I went back and tried to burn that file again with the same result - it wiped out my...
I had all the files on my computer saved to a thumb drive and backed stuff up as I went, but then, after losing the stuff on my computer, the stuff on my flash drive disappeared.
I've got some...
LOL, I work a poor computer to death. The file is 343mb. At first I thought it might have been too big, but there should have been plenty of room left on the disc.
How do you keep your files? ...
I bought the STL files for a fireplace mantle. I opened the zip file, saved it and tried to burn it to a CD. Almost at the end of the burning process, it came back with an error message. When I...
Find another kid - niece, nephew, etc. -- that is interested, and you'll see how fast yours want to learn everything.
How are the u-bolts doing on your gantry? I was initially going to use u-bolts on my panel saw, but made bearings from 2x2's. I've got my frame and carriage built and all I need to do is put it...
Has anybody used this laser attachment?
It has (4) mounting collars
2-3/4-in.
2-7/8-in.
3-1/8-in.
3-5/8-in.
You can buy hosting packages on ebay - it is cheaper if you get the reseller packages where you can host multiple domains and you don't have to pay a monthly fee. I did this for several years and ...
There are so many things about this build that I just love - was trying to figure out how to use clamps to hold a piece, and wha la - you solved my problem. When I first saw this router in such a...
It's the best idea I've seen. I think landarts did great plans for it.
I tried to upload a pic, but it wouldn't work. But on it from the center point of the "pivot"?? to the rail it's 2.55 inches, so I'm guessing it could only hold a block 4x4? What's the...
Thanks, I really like the way the indexer is mounted on the front. What is the heighth from the top of the base to the center? I'm not wanting to do anything really big.
Thanks for the reply. I figure I would lose 6-8” on each end to the motor and mounting. With 150mm diameter, are you talking about from the center or 75mm?
Do you have a build thread or link to...
After all this time, I think I will be starting my cnc router soon even though my workshop hasn't been wired yet. I will be adding a 4th axis later so I'm taking that in consideration with my...
How do you make the z axis faster?
thanks
What's a "gas spring"? Do you have a pic? I've got the openrail and v-wheels for the X and Y. I was going to use that on the Z, but now I'm gonna use the pillow block and rod. I'm not quite sure...
Thanks. I don't know how to use it, but I've saved it for later
I love it. That's gonna make one little girl happy. Would love to see it all painted and harnessed up.
I have some of those easy boards you told me to get. I've got to go through all my stuff and start separating all my different projects and see what's left that I need to get for each. It will be...
I got some gears and tracks and they were a lot smaller than I thought. I guess with a laser they might work, but I don't think they will work with the weight of a router. So I'm curious to see...
I've got the motors, belts, drivers and skate bearings, but I don't have an arduino UNO and I was looking at an (800mW) 808nm TO-5 9mm laser diode on ebay for $15.99, but wanted to see what you...
thanks. I was looking at one of those handheld electric stencil cutters and then thought the laser would be a lot cleaner, plus it could engrave too. I've got an old computer with a writable cd...
I've got a question on your cnc laser ... what can it cut? I'm thinking a laser would be great for cutting stencils and glass. I've already got extra motors and bob, but was considering 2 of those...
that's pretty neat
thanks, it's really a beautiful font and looks great on your sign
I love the one on the right .. it's script :). What font did you use? It is 'similar' to Helinda Rook, but I like it much better. If I can ever get my shop setup, I want to 'hang out my shingle'...
