Hi I'm building a Glass Bottle Cutting Machine and because I need to cut the bottle twice I needed a gantry system to run the cutter from one side...
Cheers Alex I'll look out for the heads up.
Hi All I recently ordered some parts for my 3rd Ox that I couldn't get here in the UK via Ooznest (Openbuilds UK Outlet). The chaps at The Parts...
Thanks, Peter I'm glad I asked. Cheers.
Hi When Mark first built the Ox he used a 3 Axis Driver Board coupled with an Arduino to drive the Nemas. I've got 2 of those, but now the 'Black...
Hi Rick I thought that was a better idea to use the screw than the belt. Thanks for the reply.
At 75 I'm terrible about the right terms for different parts of the OX so I apologize if it doesn't sound right but I'll try and explain the best...
Hi I have an 'OX' but it's in bits at present and I wanted to know if it can be adapted it to use screw drive instead of belt drive, which it is...
Yes, your right about the Throat depth but I knew that before I started the build. But I already had most of the materials left over from the...
I'm a little puzzled Rick. If I mount another plate on top of the first one then I'll still have only 5 square inches, the same area I already...
I knew before I built my 'Mini Mill' that the gantry plate was only about 5ins square but there's always something just that little bit bigger...
That's strange Giarc That's exactly what I did. I lined up the envelope and the one-cent piece and took a photo to prove what I'd been sent. The...
I was just referring to the models. I think Autodesk is quietly kicking themselves for not having ability to look to the future with this...
Hi After building my 'Mini Mill' I wanted to try and cut some metal with it and decided to get a copy of 'Artcam' from Aliexpress. After about 7...
Ok, Rick, I'll stick with the 30mm and hackem off if they're in the way. Now, where did I put that Dremel?
Rick, Those 27mm Low Profile Screws that Matt uses in the video you haven't seen yet, to connect the wheels to the gantry plate are a pain. As you...
That was my thought too. It makes more sense to anchor the mill to the baseboard instead of having it vibrate (because it has rubber feet that...
No, its the set of 4 rubber feet that fit in those 'Cast Corner Bracket'. Its not a problem now as I've found them in the 'Part Store' though I'm...
Regarding the 27mm screws, I can't find them anywhere so I'll have to use 30mm instead and hope they don't catch the gantry below. If they do I'll...
OK, Thanks.
