I try to explain how to make toolpaths and exporting them as gcodes from Autodesk Fusion 360. This makes it possible to use the g-code files in other controller […]
I’m using my CNC machine to carve out the pieces I need for the electronics box. I use the CAM function in Fusion360 to export the g-codes. Then […]
It’s time to wire up the stepper motors permanently and mounting the plastic cable drag chain on all the axis of the CNC machine. I’m using shielded cables […]
I figured out that the x-axis transfer brackets from the lead screw nut was to wobbley so I try to strengthen the x-axis transfer brackets from the lead screw […]
I try to explain for the normal person how microstepping will effect your 3d printer, CNC machine or other machines using a steppermotor. I show you how to calculate steps […]
Download the wire diagrams as one .pdf file: TB6560 and Arduino UNO wiring diagram.pdf Figuring out how to connect the TB 6560 to the Arduino UNO using GRBL g-code […]
Improvements to the things I figured out in the last video, part 7 of this build. I fix things like linear bearings from rails to supported rails for the […]
I tested the DIY CNC machine and figured out it needs some improvements. Stepper motors to small, y-axis unstable and force transfer to weak on the z-axis.I will show you […]
Finishing the “rest” of the CNC machine. This was my first time building a CNC machine and I have already figured out some improvements i’m going to do to it. […]
Build video number 2. I mount the stepper motors and the lead screws with anti backlash nut and mounted ball bearings. I prepare the y-axis for the next episode. If […]
Build video number 1. In this video I build the base for the CNC machine and the supported rails for the X-axis. everything is built out of wood. Watch the […]
