I try different feedrates and pass depths in MDF material with my cheap chinese spindle (400W). This is just to test my DIY CNC machine and to show you how these settings can influence the CNC milling. I figured out a lot on this project and a lot […]
THANK YOU!!! I just reached 2000 subscribers and I’m very great full. To honor you people I made this plaque and tried to explain how I did it along the way. I really appreciate your subscription and I look forward to making more videos for you. I have some […]
In part 16 of this build you saw me making mounts for the Makita spindle. The plan is to improve the whole z-axis assembly when I change the spindle (router). The unsupported rails has to be changed to supported rails. I also wat to make a spoilboard so the […]
Download 3D files of the COINFIDGET I know the fidget spinner craze is over and that they are “soooo” 2016, hehe But, anyway, this was a project for me to get better at designing in fusion 360, measurements, cam, toolpath, cutting acrylic material, feeds and speeds, double sided cutting […]
I explain how I use gcode files and set the zero point with the Universal g-code sender (UGS Platform from GitHUB). This is not the most efficient way but it’s a beginners way 🙂 Later I plan to get a zero probe tool that makes this easier. 👍🤘 Community: […]
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 software like Chillipeppr and Universal G-code Sender (UGS). I personally use the UGS Platform software to send the g code […]
I want to improve my CNC machine even more with supported rails on the z-axis and a new Makita router. In this video I design two brackets or mounts for the Makita. It is 65mm in diameter and I design them in Fusion360. Then I carve the mounts out of […]
In the summer of 2017 I made a concrete top table for my pation. In this video I pour the concrete and finish the table both the wood frame and the concrete top. Wood oil on the frame and hard wood oil for concrete sealer. It works great!! […]
In the summer of 2017 I made a concrete top patio table for my veranda. I made the design in Sketchup where I got all my measurements. In this video I build the body and the frame used for the concrete pour. The table frame is build out […]
Finally I get to build the electronics enclosure for the CNC machine!! Please check out my CNC video series for the whole story on my DIY CNC machine. You can take part in the journey from a thought in my head until a “finished” product. I learn as […]
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 I use the Univrsal Gcode sender to send the file to the arduino and the cnc machine. Download 3D files […]
I’m designing the enclosure for the electronics for the CNC machine. I use Fusion 360 to design mock-up’s of all the components I need inside the box. Than I compile the enclosure around the components and place them where they will get most out of the 24v DC cooling […]
