Hi guys, my name is Warren. I have just started to purchase items re building a benchtop router/mill. I have all my electronics and have been slaving over Mach 3 learning the basics.

I mostly wish to make 2D parts from delrin and aluminium.
I have all my drawings finished, now I need someone to machine some parts for me. Is there anyone on this forum located on eastern side who could help out please.
I am located in the south eastern suburbs.

Looking forward to hearing from you. :cheers:

Warren.

Hi Warren,
Welcome to the zone.

Thanks for the reply Gully.

Here is the side elevation of the machine. Lower rails (Y Axis?) are 20mm NSK Guide rail mounted to 40x80 T-Slot extrusion.

X Axis (Across??) are 15mm NSK guide rail mounted to 30x30 T-Slot Extrusion with a 6mm alloy back plate to form a H section.

Main gantry is 12mm aluminium. Main lower ends are also 12mm aluminium bolted into the 40x80 T-slot.

Y Axis is 450 Oz stepper and X and Z axis are 265 Oz. Running off a G540 Gecko at 48V. This really makes the system fly.

Y axis and X axis have 16mm Dia x5mm Lead Ball screws and Z axis has 12mm Dia x 4mm Lead ball screw.

I have individual drawings of the components I need machined for any-one interested.

Thanks again, Warren. .

Hi Warren,
That looks like it will be a sturdy little machine, with good quality kit running it.
Sadly, I dont think my little Joes would cope with cutting the ally parts to the accuracy you would need,(plus we are in the middle of moving and it's packed up) but I can give you details of a commercial trade supplier of mine that should be able to cut them for you on their big cnc router. PM me if you want their contact details.

regards,

Gully
