hi all,
i start a little project of cnc...

[Mister H]

what material are you making it from?

I'm a little worries about the sides of your x-axis. it looks quit high but small (it isn't stiff enough I think)

[edit] forget the question, assumed some things wrong[/edit]

[Mister H]

still got a question, what kind of linear bearing do you intend to use? I don't really see them

[GERY]

hi mister h,
My english is really limited... It's a little machine x 350 y 250 z 100 mm..in aluminium...The bearing systeme is a home made "glissieres" (i dont know this word in english may be "slead"...???)..

soon

[Mister H]

ma francais est limité aussie je croix une glissiere est "sliding bearing"

your design looks ok, but why don't you use a standard (proven) design?

[jmytyk]

i think it's great that you arent using a standard design. keep going, you are going to run into problems but thats really the best way to learn.

i found that taking parts and pieces from other designs out there- you can build your machine how you think it would work the best.

HI all,
Thank jmitik, i want make all parts of my machine in leaning....

More details of x translation....

[acondit]

Gery,

It looks like you a planning to use brass or bronze gibs on aluminum rails. Is that what I am seeing?

Alan

[thkoutsidthebox]

Looks great. I just have one question:
Why is your X stepper inside instead of outside your end beam? Would you slightly increase working area by flipping it to the outside?

[GERY]

hi all,
Yes alan it's that
Yes thkoutsidthebox it's a good solution...
Just a little video....of sliding

[acondit]

Gery,

Aren't you worried about wear on the aluminum?

Alan

[GERY]

hi alan,

no, because the brass has one excelent friction coefficient...and the weight
total on this axe is 1.3 kg

[acondit]

Gery,

Good luck, I hope it works out for you. It looks nice.

Alan
