I had the same problem with my first machine which was very similar to this one. I used bearing drawer slides for "X" and "Y" axis and welded a cross steel member to make the unit rigid when it moves. For "Z" axis, pillow blocks welded onto "Y" axis slide. And I can copy a coin with mine. Simple and pipe for arms for pen and dremel (Router) again with bar welded across for rigidity. Cost = $50.
yeah ok? I bet that can copy nervous hand patterns good for useless forensic catch 22 arguments. Get it? dude...when you can copy the face of a coin, repost your video. But try it anyway just to show us how this machine cuts.
I just finished building one somewhat like this but I opted for a hinged parallelogram instead of linear bearings. Yours seems to have some slop in the sliding motion lol but it should be fine for rough stuff.
If you have to move it by hand, and there is no computer involved, its not CNC. Computer Numerical Control. Not tryin to be a dick, its just one of those " for future reference" things. I'd like to see an aluminum version though. Plywood just isn't sturdy enough.
I've only found a few like this, on you-tube, if you have a pattern, then you don't need to hook up a computer, way to many CNC machines on here. I like this one, good job

lol, yeah, that looks accurate. How about abstract duplicate?

too much slop in the movement to use this as a duplicator. you need to stiffen that thing up a lot.

that's pretty cool! does it actually work?? that could be useful to me if it does since i have a dremel
