I am sorry you got that impression. I have found the group to be extremely helpful and amazingly fast. My original point was that few people use CNCZone for their support for CamBam and any help...
You need to use Waterline Rough with a small clearance to do the 'rough' shaping then a second Waterline Finish to do the final shaping. Rough will step down in increments, Finish will follow the...
Shouldn't be breaking any rules since the plans are free. You built it (either kit or DIY), don't see why you shouldn't be able to sell as you wish.

The responses your received on the CamBam support forum are probably your best bet for quick and knowledgeable answers. The support forum is probably the best I have ever seen as far as speed to...
You could do this by modifying the Post Processor. You will get a more detailed answer if you ask your question on the CamBam forum. Great (and very quick) support there for about any challenge you...
I typically program the entire part and run it unless I have to reposition the piece then I may break it up into multiple runs. However, each part may have multiple MOPs which run end to end within...

I saw that review during my research and pretty much ruled out the brushed versions tho some seem to be having reasonable results with them. I have not found any information as to the internal...
I know this is an old thread, but I think this question fits here. Does anyone have any experience with the newer .4kw brushless spindles like these?
CNC 0.4KW Brushless Spindle Motor ER11 &...
you would probably have better luck posting your request on the CamBam forum thread listed in post #4 above.

The first machining operation appears to be a simple constant depth type operation. The second operation is using either a variable depth approach typically called V-Carving or a variable depth...
CamBam can do both those operations.
First, machining an area, then moving the part then resume machining can be done by using multiple tool #s in CamBam and having your CNC software set up so...
Brian, just to make sure I understand, is this designed as a 'plug-in' or extension of Rhino? If so, one must own Rhino before using this extended capability?
Don
Nice piece, that should finish up really well. Glad you found the problem.
Don
My guess is your end mill is not perpendicular to the XY axis. Basically, it is leaning slightly which makes one edge of the bottom of the end mill lower than the other. When you move the bit back...
Joe, any more details on this new machine? Looks very nice but I see nothing on your website about it.
Don
We need a lot more information about what is happening to be able to help. What machine, speed, cutter/bit, material, etc?
Don
Without some level of cooling via flood or mist, the bit is getting hot and the chips are 'sticking' rather than clearing the slot. Can you turn the rpm down on your spindle/router, or increase the...

Welcome to CNCZone, hope you enjoy your time here. I would suggest you do a 'lot of reading' of many of the threads here on CNCZone about DIY CNC machines. Understanding the variables...
Yes, the MicroCarve website was down. It is back up but still not showing any ability to access the forums yet. Should be back soon.

As a long time CamBam user, I can say CamBam has steadily grown in capability from release to release. Most basic CAD capabilities are available and there are few things (2D) that I have been unable...
If you have the earlier machine (before Bigfoot) you will probably have trouble machining aluminum. The machine was not designed to do that, ie gantry uprights, rails, table, spindle, are just not...
C1 I like that carving a lot. It has a more delicate look to it and think it would go well on a Paradise Box or other carving.

If you haven't purchased the Colt yet, you might want to do a little research on problems with the newer Colt routers. Some have reported bearing problems in that the bearing housing has been...
Very nice, that will look great when installed. Bet you get some other orders for similar stuff after people see this.
Don
It certainly won't hurt!!!
Good luck
Don
I thought I had replied to your post previously, but I guess I didn't. Is it possible you are running into some 'resonance' issues above 60IPM? There are several threads here on CNCZone about...
Thanks, I was planning on sanding 'path' for the 2 sets of bearings to roll on each pipe and doing something like bluing or some coating to prevent rust. Am also still considering converting to CRS...
I have a Joes 2006 sitting disassembled for several months now to be sealed and painted. I bought the unit from a guy since it wouldn't cut glass like he wanted. I used it for a few months with...
