I'm building an OX CNC router. It will be the larger size of 750x 1000mm. This should give me a working area of about 22"x30".

Delta printer that uses printed carriages sliding on aluminium extrusions.

C-beam based CNC router using mostly openbuilds parts.

C-Beam XL build using TinyG V8.

A System of 3d printed parts to use along with your projects aluminum extrusion to cut your pieces of v-slot to length manually.

A small, quiet and clean desktop CNC designed for fine cutting.

24x32 Cnc Router, I used vSlot c Beam Extrusion and Wheels!

We want to present you the new design of the device which is Router Sled. The whole structure is made of aluminum elements and ensures good quality of the device. We used V-SLOT aluminum profiles and OpenBuilds accessories for the construction. The instructional video can be found on our YouTube channel (subtitles in English soon)

C-Beam 2XL CNC Router

In Greek mythology, Talos (/ˈteɪlɒs/;[1] Greek: Τάλως, Talōs) was a giant man of bronze made by Hephaestus (the Greek god of fire, metalworking, craftsmen and blacksmiths) who protected Europa in Crete from pirates and invaders. He circled the island's shores three times daily.

This is the next version of Dash, now operating much closer to its potential. Please message me if you need anything, such as Simplify3D settings, material information, design intent etc. Since the Pack-and-Go zip file is fairly large (120mB), here is a link where it can be downloaded: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Q3ygyo_tTrB4UYIV62_wtCSCbWuE3krT/view?usp=sharing Note: I use Solidworks 2022, acquired through their Solidworks for Makers program (check it out!). A super deal at $100/yr

This project is an adjustable router guide template made with 20x60 V-slot. It was meant as a less expensive and more user friendly alternative to commercially available units.

My take on the LEAD CNC build. Followed the instructions and I think it came together very nicely. Added a few of my own touches to finish up the build.

Overview of my experience building the C-Beam Machine XL from OpenBuilds, along with updates as I move along and get it going. My application is for creating plates needed for lab functions, 19 rack bay covers, and whatever else arises.

Second better project, high durable mainframe, silent work, non vibration.

Ca fait 2 ans que je rêve d'une Fraiseuse CNC. Ni trop grande ni trop petite, sans avoir le budget pour en acheter une toute faite. Je suis artisan menuisier ébéniste et j'ai finalement décidé de la construire. Le projet OX m'a séduit, alors je me lance.

A minimum parts build with belt driven Z-axis.

My goal is to upgrade the acrylic ANET A8 to all metal.

The main objective is to build a software which can completely run on a single board computer, Rasbperry Pi, to reduce the complete cost of building a cnc machine. The software is extensively tested and can be run on any raspberry pi 2/3 boards. With no G-Code dependency, you can do complex 3D relief carving to simple tasks with simple GUI based project development environment. Please go through the YouTube channel for more details https://youtu.be/8KOXqLpvscg

feel free to ask anything about this builds, but im a airline pilot and sometimes responding maybe will take me. while!!

Upgraded Z-axis for Sphinx-style CNC using ball screws and linear rails.

This easy to build actuator is configured to have not only strength, but accuracy! This low profile option offers endless possibilities, and we cant wait to see how this actuator is implemented in your build ideas!

I'd like to renew my cnc for PCB so I decide to create new one from an existing project named Cyclone PCB Factory.

The method used for tool position setting is a matter of personal choice but this is what I do.

I am building a simple home brewed printer. I have a background in industrial automation so I figured how hard could this be. The mechanical build was pretty smooth as was the electrical side. Now just getting plastic out the hotend is my stopping point.

Ooznest OX CNC build

GT2 belt-driven Cartesian 3D Printer on an OpenBuilds Extrusion gantry, developed through Autodesk Fusion 360.

Modified Tevo

This machine is a heavy duty, moving gantry style CNC router. It uses Teknic ClearPath servo motors driving ballscrews and linear rails. The machine has 36" x 48" x 19" of travel with about 7" of clearance below the gantry.

This is a book scanner built out of aluminum extrusion. It is designed to get high quality scans without harming the book. It is not automated. You still have to turn the pages yourself.

This is my first CNC build. As per the norm, I went in with months of research, planning, and resource gathering tied neatly together with a solid plan. As the path went on, the plan continued to change to accommodate issues I hadn't counted on. But, at the end of the road, the project reached completion, and I learned a ton along the way!

This build log will chronicle the construction of my oversize (1000mm X 1500mm) OX router.

Fast, Large build area, CoreXY design

This modified C-Beam, is a compact, powerful and affordable desktop CNC.

lead machine plasma table with Black Box, and Torch Height Control

A CNC router designed to handle a 4'x8' sheet, for as close to $2000 as possible. The price barrier resulted in my choice to use timing belts rather than leadscrews or rack&pinion. Build List still being updated

This a redesign of the Folger-Tech Y-Carriage using the Solid V-Wheels, Ball Bearings, the V-Slot Rail System.

A minimalist 2-axis A2 sized laser diode cutter/engraver. Designed to give the most function using the very least number of parts at the lowest price.

Low cost, apple crate framed CNC.

Using criticall OpenBuilds components to upgrade the rigidity and reliability of an X-Carve 1000mm build.

Another build based on the venerable OX. xPRO CNC controller, and a few extras.

A bigger OX. As this build is nothing new I will detail my build process, I am not an experienced builder, this will maybe help someone else. The size of the bOX will be 100cmx75cm. I will use aluminium plates, a tinyG, and most probably only open source / free software.

Somewhat Simple Lead screw conversion for an OX CNC.

This is a Delta build using 1610 ballscrews from China

After expanding a Shapeoko 2 with the rails and motors left over, make yourself a laser engraver.

The Roberta Clementine a proof of concept and progenitor to the series of printers I will be calling the Clementine Sisters. The printer is named after Pittsburgh Pirates baseball player Roberto Clemente. Although it is more accurate to say the printer is named after the school I work for which is named after Clemente the Roberto Clemente Charter School. http://www.myrccs.com Roberta is the first and not really built to last but instead built to test ideas and to produce the parts for successors

1000mm x 1500mm OX router using Openbuilds parts and plates by Chris Laidlaw

Pretty much a straight OPENBUILDS OX that slowly getting some modifications.

The QuorXZ doesn't magically appear. It's gestation takes time, careful attention, and requires many parts. However, when it is ready, a magical, mechanical instrument is born....(and when you finally say its name, it sounds a little bit like "corks").

My take on a non affordable slider.

Drag knife and pen holder which mounts in spindle collet.

A large format, modular, rack and pinion build designed around OpenBuilds components.

For my first Openbuilds project, I decided to put together an OX CNC Router.

Building upon the great work done by Marshall Peck and others. I have started a new build.

This printer is a design that has evolved over three years. The original goals of this project were to design a rigid printer that had a large print volume, 300mm^3, with easily sources parts and a minimum of complicated printed parts.

This is an automatic bartender- a BarBot, designed to be made with off-the-shelf OpenBuilds, V-slot and low-cost 3D printer parts.

This is a router that I designed that is loosely based on the Openbuilds Ox, but designed to be heavy duty, rigid, and yet quick and agile.

With the textile machine bearing feel better strength, better durability 用纺织机轴承感觉强度要好一些，耐用性更好

My self-designed and built, tall-format coreXY printer with 300 x 300 x695 mm print capacity.

3.8 W laser add-on for C-Beam machine. Can easily be swapped with the router.

My build of the OX kit from SMW3D.com

Basing this build on the C-Beam machine XL on the parts store, but added a few things to make it more like the C-Beam XXLarge "Tank" by Dollarz81. Going with the Dewalt 611 instead of a water cooled spindle at first. May change down the road. Using a Panucat Gradus M1 controller with BigFoot drivers.

Simple Swing Arm Build for the Modular Table Series. Create a simple vacuum swing arm that swings over your machine keeping your vacuum hose and router cord, etc. up and out of the way

A standard 1000x1000 Workbee powered by an X-controller using a Hitachi router

A 3-axis flying gantry (4'x4') mechanical kit is assembled. A 3D printer is used to make cable chain for tidy and cheap wire management. A BeagleBone Black development platform with Machinekit software (LinuxCNC) is configured to control a Xylotex motor driver box connected to an Openbuilds Ox direct-drive pulley and belt motion system. A vacuum dust-collection system is designed, CNC-routed and installed. A steel table is made to mount the table onto.

inspired by http://openbuilds.org/builds/c-beam-sphinx.3605/

The Echinus Team change the Firmware from "Teacup" to "Marlin". I use this board in my 3D Printer and it works very good! So I write a short report.

DIY design and build of a roughing 2' by 3.5' CNC router

C-beam Plate Maker V-slot Table System to aid in clamping and setup of jobs.

Modded Plate maker with: Smoothiebrainz board and DQ542MA SN04 Endstops Modded Z axis Aluminium build plate and renforced Y axis Dust shoe

Ball screw drive, linear rail CNC Kit

I made a mill from first principles because I didn't like any of the ones that were out there, More info can be found on the website RigCNC.com

High Power DC MOSFET

This is basically a Sphinx variant with few changes of my own...hope it'll work.

Upgrading printers for Synchronous Leveling

This machine is fantastic. Teamed up with Fusion 360, Inkscape, and GrblPanel, I'm well on my way towards making at least one Christmas gift this year. I had some frustrating times during the build, mainly with getting everything to go together square, but overall it was fun. I can see that I'm going to need to be a bit creative in order to max out the work area for this machine so that I can produce the product I bought it for, but it will be able to do so much more for me as well.

Custom build plate for 300mm x 300mm (12"x12"). The hole pattern is for the 20x60 V Slot

How to build an Independent Dual EXtruder (IDEX) 3D printer from OpenBuilds parts.

Yet Another Chinese Linear Rail CNC, my first one, doing this mainly for the fun of building it more than using it.

Acro based 2 watt laser platform

Here is a nice little simple build that will help to free up some extra space on your work bench. If your like me you need all the room on your work station you can use, so this is great to have.

Over 840 parts. Of whom around 450 are screws and nuts, more than 100 parts are printed on a 3D printer, the frame consists of about 60 components. There is nearly 40 electrical components connected with tens of meters of wires, most of them sleeved.

This will be an ongoing log as I build this machine. Name change by popular demand - at least a couple of us. :)

A Workbee able to cut 48"x24" material, built to continuously feed material so one can cut full sheets of ply.

Short description of my assembly and use of the C-Beam bundle from the Open Builds Part Store.

Cooling system for water cooled spindle.

As this is a build in progress, I will update it as I progress.

Our version of the OX, a Cartesian CNC Router Build. 1,500 mm Y-Axis, 1,000 mm X-Axis, 300 mm Z-Axis - Lots of Fun!

Fast, inexpensive, near-zero maintenance, and 2+ years of near-daily use.

My DIY 3D Printer build which is similar to an i3 style printer. This is a fully documented step-by-step build with videos.

This is an Openbuilds LEAD 1510, modified to supports a liquid cooled 1.5Kw spindle. The movements are made with lead screw on all three axes.

A simple approach to making the Eleksmaker A3 Laser build have a better functioning X-Carriage! Of course this assumes you bought an Eleksmaker A3 or plan to.

A brief write up of the making of the FLSUN Delta Kit. This kit is based on an open source design. I had a need for a 3D printer without the desire to dive into another project, so a kit was the obvious way to go. I already have a delta printer in the works and so this is more of a stop gap in the interim.

This CNC build is to help with some areas of my guitar builds - mainly inlays but some body work as well where appropriate. I expect it will be used for lots of other things once I get to know what it's capable of (sorry - what I'm capable of!).

Taller and wider MendelMax 1.5 spinoff

This is a CNC Line Boring Machine for our cabinet shop. It drills the holes every 32 mm for the adjustable shelf pins in the cabinet side pieces. I chose this option over purchasing a multi-head boring machine that requires 11 drill bits - Left & Right hand twist - that also requires a lot of strength to plunge that many drill bits into the wood to be drilled.

This is a 1-Axis CNC Glass Grinder. It uses a hobby grinder to miter a precise angle on the edge of a piece of glass.

Minimalist laser platform built with Makerlink connectors and modified Nema 17 stepper mounts used as gantry plates.

The X301 is a CoreXY 3D Printer that has a small footprint and a large 300x300x330 build area. The open style of this printer breaks the "Cube" mold of many other printers in this class but still retails rigidity and great performance.

This unit is made with openbuild v-rail and c-beam. using direct drive with lead screws. Nema23 motors
