I haven't had much time to work on mods to my build over the last few months, but I did work on a new enclosure for my CNC electronics; inspired...
I hope to not disappoint. I think I'm just addicted to buying openbuilds parts.
JimB828 published a new build: This build will be based on the C-Beam Plate Maker, with additional changes based on other builds and ideas. Read...
In my efforts to build my main CNC, and to work on Robo Morten, I needed a smaller machine to create some plates and other miscellaneous parts.
This is currently a proof-of-concept build for a machine that can route mortise and tenon joinery, and hopefully much more. Because I will...
I didn't make much progress this weekend. I've found another source of accuracy error, and that is that a couple of my v-slot parts are not...
Go ahead and rub it in. ;) Because I wasn't using the table as a reference, I needed a way to probe to the underside of the board. My edge finder...
I am traveling for the rest of the week, so I will not be able to do any more testing until Friday evening. However, I did come up with an easier...
I hadn't thought about using the limit switches as reference for positioning. I obviously use them as homing switches, but I haven't measured the...
Yes, I have been spending quite a bit of time, in between being able to actually test the physical machine, trying to figure out a usable way to...
Since I had to take the Z axis apart to tighten up the eccentrics on the mini v-wheels, I went ahead and changed the X-large gantry plate, with...
I have made a couple of stupid mistakes in working through test pieces, and I have crashed the router into the part numerous times. While I have...
Yes, this is correct. I'm using the aluminum tape as a makeshift probe, since it wraps around the piece nicely. For the tenon, this is the...
I have not tried getting the xPro controller working again, but I have been testing out the Planet-CNC controller, with an upgrade to their TNG...
Thanks, (and sorry?) ;) I travel a lot for work, and I am really impatient, so I tend to over-order parts to make sure that I don't lose time...
Thanks phil. I will try that when I am back home on Friday.
The xPro controller seems to have been a no-go. I can't even get the motors to turn. I'm not sure if the board is bad or if I am missing something...
The machine is workly fairly well, but I'm still about 1.25 mm off on alignment between the mortise and tenon. Figuring out the math and making...
I have updated the BOM for this as it stands today. There may still be changes.
Yes. I rebuilt the table portion this weekend, so I have a few more tests to make sure that the current build works well for the scenarios I have...
