The K40 Co2 style uses high voltage correct? Any issues or special considerations running power cables and water lines and keeping them isolated...
I understand I understand, I get it. The idea of having a laser engraver is intriguing. I'm just not sure If I'm all in or just want to...
Is there something potentially less expensive maybe just for engraving?
I've built a 4x4 ft. plywood/aluminum CNC router. I finished my primary project, the reason for building the router, and now I'm looking at what...
Thanks for the tip. I did end up ordering some from Kodiak, a standard and extra long ball nose. I'm always willing to pay a small premium for...
Yes I did. Those prices were similar to the Amana and Onsrud bit MSRP.
I got a couple good deals on some Amana and Onsrud router bits a while back. Now I'm in the market for some ball nose bits 1/4" and 1/8" but I...
Not exactly. All rails and ball screws bolt into threaded metal inserts in the 3/4" plywood. The M6-25mm insets are epoxied in the plywood for...

In the OB design is there any compliance in the device to accommodate over-travel?
I have a DIY CNC router and I'm looking for recommendations for a simple touch plate to set my Z Axis. I see a lot of fixed plate and button...
That's pretty slick. It seems like I need a CNC machine just to build a CNC machine :)
I have some inexpensive NEMA 23 stepper motors. Other than a small rubber grommet where the stepper wire exits the stator/housing, I don't see...
Yes, you are probably right, off the rail would be best. My extrusion supports were clean so I thought why not. I should check against the rail...
I have M6 x 20 threaded inserts epoxied cross grain in Baltic Birch plywood. Tightening these bolts down has me nervous....
This is what I'm envisioning.. just have to see what I actually end up with. [ATTACH] Controls tested and running. [ATTACH] Support table,...
I have Nema 24 steppers (24HS34-3504D). They call for M4.5 socket head screws which are difficult to find. I tried an M5 and it is really snug....
Yes all the block have wipers. So I'm concerned simply lubing the rail would not get enough oil into the blocks. This being my first build I...
First build so I'm leaning things the hard way. I purchased some inexpensive Chinese SBR-16 round rail and pillow blocks. Unfortunately there...
