About 3 months ago I ventured out to build a cnc table. My uncle was building one at the time and had done lots of research. I liked his but it was to small, so I fell across Brians MDF design and was floor to what the potential could be. I have modified his design a little but not that much. Here are a few things that are different. I shortened the length to 6' versus 101" long. I never would have imagined the price difference in 72" and 101" acme screw would cost. Next I went with 1/2" acme rods instead of 5/8". This was because monies was tight so I had to compromise. So I will have to let you know how that turns out. I might have so whip.. I hope not. I went with a Nema 34 frame motors for all axis'. The y-axis has a 425 oz., x-axis and z-axis both have 300 oz.. I had some others parts laying around, like 1 1/2", 5/8" Thompson rods and bearings, Which I incorporated into the design of the Z-axis and the y-axis. I still used his design for the x-axis only due to I did not have any big enough material to span the 48" across. I am please with the smoothness of his design, which I hope I am happy with the y-axis Thompsons. Right now they are a bit rusty and drag a little so I am in the process of sanding which I hope fixes that questionable problem. I am at the point now of attaching the limit switches, junction boxes, and e-chain rail guide for all axis. I hope to use Brians cable carrier design when its all said and done. Then it is prep time for paint. I am in the process of saving for the purchase of my electronics. I also am thinking about putting a 1.5k water cooled spindle and VFD drive for cutting head. I have a raidator and pump picked out, but can't wait til I can get everything So for now that is what I got. I have loaded every picture I have taken since the beginning. If there are questions, thoughts or ideas arise hit me up.
