Hi- My name is Christian.
I am announcing my :bs:>>>DIY CNC Router<<<:bs:
The link is my detailed blog regarding this build
Build: HobbyCNC-electronics based router.
Material: MDF 0.75"
Parts- cut out with table saw and post processed.
Design Basis: WoodworkerB's Blog
Actual size: 80" x 60" x 42"
Working size: 72" x 36" x 9"
CNC Design Tool: SolidWorks
Motors: 200oz-in 1.8 degree (200spr)
Lead Screws: 2-start 5tpi
Resolution: 0.001"
Machine Control: Mach3
Part design: SolidWorks exported as DXF
Plans will be available (someday, if there is interest)
Completion target date: 07/2011 (?)
I am a design engineer, I work in SolidWorks, I own and operate a PlasmaCAM CNC plasma torch (w Miller 375 Xtreme inverter 27a). I built the HobbyCNC chopper stepper driver kit, and have tested the motors with Mach3 and appears to operate nominally.
Feel free to get ideas for your own, or copy what I have done.
Visit my ongoing construction blog for this project and leave comments or whatever here.
Enjoy-
-Thanks
