Good job, nice machine and good video, I have run and programed cnc lathes and cnc mills and even an integrex(5 axis cnc) but "Garage Ingenuity" always impresses me more than all the "All expense paid" research of the big companies
Do you have a video of the shark guard in use? I've heard about them for years, extremely highly regarded, but never saw it in action, so not really sure what it does or how it works.
Hi there. Is it just me is the head moving as the work is pushed through. I hope it's just a case of the entire machine not being properly anchored to the ground... Other than that it looks great :o)
This was the initial build of the mill. It simply wasn't mounted and was sitting on a wooden table. The machine was sturdy. The base wasn't. It has been upgraded quite a bit since this first video.
Thanks a bunch, AF. I really like all your video's as well. Stay tuned here. I have redone most of this little mill. It is quite a bit stouter now even though based on aluminum 80/20 extrusions.
This was my first video. I intend to make more in the future and will include pics with better detail. If viewed full screen, you can make out some detail now. Thanks a bunch for the feedback.
I can do it with my D..., so week. There are no guts. Why are you wasting our time with this Lego toy.

A better look at the finished product would have been nice. There's just too much glare to be able to read it or to tell the degree of detail.
