I have been using fusion360 for almost a year now as a hobbyist. It can do everything I throw at it if I can keep up with the steep learning curve but there are lots of videos about. As a hobbyist...

Advice is just that, advice. It seems some consider only one aspect of using the CNC v all the practical reasons, ie there is often a tradeoff/compromise. There is also "good enough", sure some ppl...

Great thanks, it sure looks heavy.....LOL. I have just been doing some hand routeing this weekend repairing a door and frankly even if a "cross gantry" is going to flex a wee bit more its nothing...

Now we drift into economics. No, Industry packed up and left because labour and energy were far cheaper than at home. This isnt what Govn bought you but the leaders of industry and finance mostly...

Ah right, well I guess if you dont believe in math and science as it seems many on the extreme right do not well its increasingly looking like its your funeral. ie in the meantime the innovation and...

how so?

Um no as per climate scientists,

Dr Spencer has been repeatedly called out on his erroneous calculations and in fact his work is so bad its negative and not positive and even with 3? attempts he cannot get it right and...

I have no issue with ppl holding opinions. What I do have issue with is when they try and attack others for having opinions based on Science and Math, ie attack those people personally and not the...

This is weather and not climate. What they can say from observations is just like 1997~98's record El Nino on top of global warming == way worse and more frequent storms, floods and droughts.

When 7billion of us consume fossil based energy we release C02 which does the work of altering the planet by trapping the sun's energy. So its like "mechanical advantage" for want of a better word....

Great, long and detailed reply! You have not raised anything I have not contemplated. Mounting it this way means I almost certianly dont have to leave space for one of the steeper motors and...

That is of course democracy in action.

Not anything directly to do with Climate change, but the mathematical proof is very simple, so simple even a 14 year old can do the math on it,

We are on a finite planet and we have expotential...

Great thanks, looks very similar to what I want to do, please keep the pics coming.

what about dust handling?

Hi just looking at doing an Openbuild OX cnc router for DIY work. There would seem to be some issues/concerns around Z azis stability so I thought I'd "upgrade" the Z axis to a linear bearing...

I have a similar problem that of space so I too was seriously considering mounting "sideways" ie I have a 1500mmx1000mm corner space and I need to be able to machine pieces about 1200mm long (gun...

Which is a political based belief and not a scientific one. On top of that you want to see the evidence of financial gain aka the likes of Willie Soon who produce denial papers for money.

700? Actually, no you are totally wrong, http://newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/last-time-carbon-dioxide-levels-111074

So you used test cars, um so what?

CO2 sure was higher millions of years ago, we were not alive then.

The truth is science shows us we are making a problem for ourselves and our children and...

No particular bearing on the current argument of climate change due to CO2. Plus it was an opinion of a few scientists as wildly mis-reported by the media and not mainstream / majority who...

ad hominem attack, shows a failure of logic and the ability to argue to the point so resort to attack the poster.

Hi as a complete beginner just building an openbuild OX, Does anyone know if fusion 360 can export gcode for cnclinux? or an arduino?

Hi,

Has anyone tried this out?

I am building a OXbuild cnc and its a hobby and cost is a huge factor for me. Opensource is my preference, though I'd look at low cost software if its only a few...

I would assume there would be no issues doing this rather than running an arduino?

has anyone done it?

I have ordered one of these,

That is in-correct and actually it is the likes of Ted Cruz that is cherry picking ie using the raw data or in-correctly corrected for a specific 18 year time span because that suits his outlook. ...

It is a machine just like a CNC it has sensors and motors that need to be calibrated and checked for drift over time just like a CNC. The same with a micrometer you check its accurate when you buy...

So you do not calibrate your CNC then? dont check your micrometers are really zero and accurate at max? yes, bound to end well.

Hi All,

I am just collecting info to build my own cnc router. It will probably be a modified Openbuild OX router of 1.5m x 1m or so, driven by cncLinux via parallel port card (from aliexpress). ...
