Nice I'm going to be starting my cnc project......Great VID

[woodentoolcompany]

Cool,  I love seeing people be creative like this. Utube enables people to show off thier inventions.

[conspiracy777]

I've got mine all put together, but I don't have the software figured out. I have down loaded the recommended software, but now I'm kind of stuck.

Hi nick saw your post about trying to build a flying machine, that is my dream is well we.. pilots and dreamers so how is it going now?

[NickMonteleone]

Where did you see the post?

[h2oreactor]

what brand model is your drill/router?

I'm trying to build one, how much did it cost?

any plans available?

[geproks]

a very neat home made. did you make that router clamp too?

[NickMonteleone]

Yes, I made the router clamp. A lot cheaper

than buying one,

[4mulas]

too slower

[NickMonteleone]

Slow.......yes. This is the first programmed

test cut per machine being built. If you need faster.......fast forward.

good video look at mine

[ja860231]

Can you use the same software as you would use on a plasma cutter?

[Dieselolds]

What a great machine, i want one too..

[slausonm]

Very Nice Nick, Great minds think... I finished my mill a couple of months ago. Seems to be a similar design to yours with similar "issues" I'm contemplating Rev.2 I have a video clip of mine milling a lapsteel guitar body in 5/4 oak at 20ipm and will post it soon. I have between $1500- $2000 tied up in mine and I did ALL of the machining and welding on it. Hobby CNC controller is working great so far.

[gremlinextreme101]

I'm about $600 into building mine, and i'm almost done. Where do you get the drill/router from?

[NickMonteleone]

Home Depot.

[zataraz]

O.K Nick...tell us where you got the plans for this beautiful machine. Tell us something more about it. Don't tell us you want to keep it all for yourself and just showed it to us to please yourself.

[share2go]

its not metal its wood its not the same .

[NickMonteleone]

I have the option to use a plasma cutter with this machine. I am using a router now, by choice.

[tsport100]

If you can draw it in CAD you can cut it with a CNC, Sheetcam etc automate the g-code programming.

[rodstartube]

he doesn't want to show the secret

[000nosferatu]

I want one... RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

[akareefkeeper]

If you want to build one of these, join cnczone's forum. Thats all people do there and it is huge. I'm halfway through my router. To build a decent 2' x 4' workable area machine, your looking around $2000 and should have some machining or fabrication experience.

[wbyou]

well done!

[brad3378]

try the (do it yourself) DIY CNC group on yahoo.

[MargaretMonteleone59]

Good job. I know how hard you worked on this and the end result is excellent.

[digitalni]

Looks great for home-made ;) More info please?

[theghengiskhan]

where did you get plans to build your own CNC? Are they readily available? LINKS! WE MUST HAVE LINKS!

[fuzzymonkey777]

Home made? That seemed like a precise machine. What's the most expensive part of building your own CNC machine?

[nafango22]

The time it takes to program.

[rbuszka]

Is there a web page about this project?
