nevermind you have not helped me at all , you just like arguing bye.

so I want to buy a hobby machine and you are telling me I could get my own custom extrustions made if I only spent $25,000? LOL talk about not understanding my needs. Some people just go way...

LOL, there is no die fee, or maybe the economies of scale make it cheaper so instead of just reducing the price they keep the price the same and tell you its' free, when one spends $25,000 or more it...

shapeoko and x carve have been around for years.

THE X & Y USE V WHEEL BEARINGS, THE Z AXIS USING LINEAR RAILS. THE V SLOT ALUMINUM ON THE Z AXIS IS FOR ADJUSTING THE DUST SHOE UP AND DOwn. i see a ton of nice hobby stuff made on youtube using v...

sorry did not mean to sound defensive. Still trying to figgure out how good these V wheels are and if adding 8 per rail would help vs the only 4 per rail they have now?

"There are plenty of people that has added strength to aluminum profile after the fact" and everone I have seen is a slow painful process. the aluminum extrusions should be made to easily epoxy a...

sorry your assumptions are incorrect. The z axis does not use Vbearing slides it using linear bearings. And if your material is pine wood and depth of cut is only .062" then 3kg is adequate, heck it...

the X beam initially did have too much deflection so they doubled it up two angles back to back. Personally I might try just using steel angle that has the end of each leg milled down to give it a...

Besides cncrouterparts.com is there any other vendor that will sell me all the electrical and mechanical components to attach to my own 8020 t slot frame and make my own machine?

I can weld and it...

so what direction did you wind up going?

single o flute router for 6063 or 6061 aluminum
negative rake single flute for 3000 or 5000 series $44 on amazon

I see many Chinese hobby cnc machines using 20x40mm aluminum extrusion, but I cannot seem to find any Chinese cnc machines that use the thicker aluminum frames like CNCrouterParts.com uses.

thank you for all quotes. Getting them laser cut locally for $1.14 each would up being the most economical. Most quotes for maching were $1.50 and higher. I though it would be cheaper to get...
