    Open Source Gantry 80/20 Hybrid Full Plans

    Hack graciously donated his set of plans for his open source CNC design and it is now available for viewing at cncmentor.com

    His design group can be found here.

    I'd encourage you all to check it out and participate in helping to make it even better. The wiki is editable and hack has agreed to support the design in the forum area as he has availability. Photos of the completed project can be found in the documents section. Thanks Hack!

    Thanks

    JWOLIN,

    This is actually a win win situation for me. Even though I have not actively sold these plans in quite some time, I still get several requests to get a copy from members here on the zone. Putting them on your site will allow everyone to have access, and still allow some support.

    I am working rounding up some of the CAD files to go along with the plans. Not sure what I have left after this time, but I know I have something.

    It's rumoured that everytime someone buys a TB6560 based board, an engineer cries!

    Dan this is awesome! I was looking for something exactly like this. Man, if we could get some momentum on centralizing the open source hardware community that would be awesome. There is so much available out there, but we need to pull it all together. Looks like that cncmentor site is trying to do just that...others interested in contributing?
