Overview
A medium sized CNC Machine capable of cutting patterns
The Plan
- This project's focus is on implementing basic (though scalable) CNC functionality.
Progress
- Most of the Parts are ordered. The wood has been cut, but not fitted. Waiting on Barrel Nuts to arrive.
Parts List
| Part | Number | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 2'x 4'x 3/4" MDF | 4 | $45 |
| 608ZZ Bearings (BRA) | 24 | $18 |
| R8zz Bearings | 6 | $13 |
| Aluminium Angle Bracket (1" x 1/8" x 36") | 1 | ? |
| NEMA 23 Steppers | 3 | |
| 240W DC Power Supply | 1 | |
| CNC Controller Kit (china) | 1 | $160 |
| Sub Total | ~$236 |
Next Steps
- Lewters sells Barrel Nuts, so if the ones I ordered don't arrive soon - get some from there. (consolation: I didn't order enough anyway)
- Put the Table together.
- Get miscellaneous parts (screw connectors)
Resources
Ideas
- I'll probably want to go with a belt drive system for the 4'x 8' iteration.
