Hello dear CNC-Zone!

It has been a long time since I logged me the last time in here...
First I have to thank the great community here, which gave me a lot of knowledge when I designed my machine.
Back then I was 16 years old, and a complete newbie to the DIY CNC world - with the help of the forums here and by reading dozens of threads, I finally managed to build my very own DIY CNC named ripper! Take a look of the result in the short video below!



I have already made a very detailed and pictured wiriteup of the building process on my website, and I am honestly too lazy to post here all pictures again...

The ripper is a multi-purpose large area CNC router-table.
The machine has been designed to fulfill different tasks like PCB-milling, 3D foam-milling and even milling in light metals like aluminium, while still obtaining each application´s different important properties. – in just a single machine! Easy to build – Easy to operate

Here is the link to the build log:

Your opinion is appreciated!

Kind regards from Austria,
