This is a continuation of my last build, the 6 axis slider. This is not the same rig, it was built from the same design with all new parts. The...
Aaron Newsome published a new build: A six axis camera slider with a 7th LIFT axis added! Read more about this build...
Check back tomorrow Justin, the whole rig will look different. There's nothing on this rig that's lasted more than a few weeks. For about the last...
Good point. The original idea was to have not only the lens in the center of roll axis but also tilt & pan, the focal plane of the sensor itself....
This project started with the roll axis. It's based on 2x $25 lazy susan bearings I found on Amazon. The lazy susan bearings replaced my original...
Aaron Newsome published a new build: 6 axis rig based on OpenBuild C-Beam and ESP32 MCU, WiFi controlled with custom app. Read more about this...
Since this was my first attempt at carving 3D with the CNC, I thought I'd post the results. Again, this is my first attempt. I've never designed...
Nice work Randy. It turned out perfect.
I had an extra Android car stereo and it has a very odd faceplate that does not fit regular cars. Rather than throw it into my electronics...
Sorry for the late reply. No issues with runout whatsoever. Can't say whether that's by luck or if it's a precision spindle. I don't cut a lot of...
This spindle is whisper quiet. I can’t imagine it being any more quiet than it already is. No complaints about the noise at all. It runs fairly...
Would love to see some pictures of your Z axis setup once you get it up and running. I'll keep an eye out for it.
I absolutely hate the Nema 23 only being held by 2 screws. Eventually I’ll do something about it. I’m actually considering hybrid closed loop...
Oh I also wanted to mention that I used the default kerf settings in the MakerCase app. I didn't really know what exactly "kerf" was so I had to...
Since I finally got the LEAD CNC machine up and running AND I had a box of 1/8 plywood in the garage, I decided to give a try of a jointed box and...
[ATTACH] For anyone looking to build a LEAD CNC, I wanted to post my build and hopefully answer any questions. I'll say right here in the...
First cut today on the LEAD CNC machine. I swapped out my controller and purchased a Black Box from OpenBuilds and now I can say I've done my...
I've been using bCNC running on my Raspberry Pi to run the machine but I also plan to use the OpenBuilds software. I just really like using the...
Thanks Roger. I didn't really have a strategy when I purchased the spindle. I just followed the advice of some CNCers from another forum and went...
Aaron Newsome published a new build: My take on the LEAD CNC build. Followed the instructions and I think it came together very nicely. Added a...
