Last winter I build a new machine. It was my first design. I had a cheap China CNC before that but I was unsatisfied with its non existing capabilities to mill in aluminium. Now I have had it for some time and I have milled A LOT of of aluminium parts for my RC helicopters so I would like to share the machine with you. I am very pleased with it in every possible way. There is 2 parts I did not manufacture myself and thats the T-slot bed and the holder for the spindel motor. These parts I bought here: https://www.sorotec.de/shop/

If you want to build one yourself or you just are curious you can see and download all the 3D files here in Autodesk Fusion 360 format: https://a360.co/35qALxA

The last picture shows the very first part I made with this machine which is a a little bearing holder for my smallest RC helicopter (Gaui X3).

Here is a video of the machine machining a "Gordian knot": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irbxQ6aRZro
This video shows the milling of some larger spare parts for a circular saw. The tool is 8mm and this is the most aggresive millig I have done with this machine. The result was very good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQGqnrZNEBs

In the manufacturing industry CNC machines are in high demand and produce best results. Their part and structure making capability increased when designed through CNC machines. CNC machining is a better approach than the traditional machining services.
