Well we fitted the Extruder and Hot End to the CNC Machine, attached the Hot Bed, modified the Controller from a 3D RepRap Printer and got it working !!

Here is the first Test Prints from the CNC Machine pretending to be a 3D printer.
Okay not as fast as a RepRap, but does the job :)

We are still tweaking tempratures and feed rates and things are getting better as we go along.

Still need to sort the ramping moves out a bit in the firmware as makes the machine rattle a little !

Please feel free to check out the forums at http://www.cncdudez.co.uk where we detail how you can retrofit your own CNC machine to become a 3D Printer.
