Not to rain on anyone's parade, but the aforementioned connections pretty much guarantee that in case of a fire, your insurance claim would be...
It's a very simple thing to build, and here's a good place to start: My 1st Guitar Build: A Les Paul... (duh)! All you need is a L-shaped base for...
Really depends on your needs. The less travel, the more rigid your machine will be, and vice-versa. The basic minimum would be 2 x your maximum...
To clarify, I never cut anything @ 8.000 mm/min, at most @ 4.000 mm/min, and when I do, it's a very light cut. The fast feed limit is for the...
Check ooznest's documentation. They have suggested sttings for GRBL, and if I remember correctly, they suggest a feed limit of 2500mm/min (about...
Up to you, really. The simplest way would be to double-sided tape it down, but personally I'd say that's too flexible. After that, the easiest is...
My bad, but I'm not totally sure whether you mean to use taller gantry plates (of which there are two), or end plates (of which there are four),...
Nothing major, mostly the fact that these are always a balancing act of machine travels and rigidity. With that in mind, an X-axis closer to a...
First of all, I'd suggest you never use router bits designed for wood on aluminum, so unless you have a fly-cutter meant for metals, just use...
First of all, you're asking stuff which deals with more than basic structural calculations, and (for most) requires using a FEA software to...
The end plate switcheroo can be done by cutting your extrusions slightly shorter.
And for that, we suggest the rack and pinion solution, which is free from whipping. These things in the hobby scale can usually be figured out to...
There are 1.5m axes running with 8mm leadscrews without much trouble, but for beefiness sake, if using the c-beam like in a workbee with the screw...
Doable, but not sensible. I wouldn't go under 16mm for a screw that long, rather 25mm, and at that point the price is rather high. So I agree with...
Being interested in possibly doing this modification in the future, I've got to ask: What materials are you milling, and have you noticed a change...
;) Just to clarify: The spindle only lowers when you cut the power to the machine, meaning the motors don't do anything. The same thing would...
You can get 80 mm mounts for the spindle from several places in several styles. All that matters is that you match the angle brackets to the...
A very broad question, which makes it VERY difficult to answer. But I try to list a couple of pointers: - Match your machine to your work. If...
I've tried Dremel bits on an ER 16 collet before, and they work without problems. Do notice, however, that Dremel bits come in a variety of shank...
Yes, you're quite correct in the roughing - finishing department. But one thing to note is the fact you used a very fragile bit, which is prone to...
