Wanted to start getting some of the projects I work in my shop uploaded for people to see as I always find it entertaining to watch how other people get their work done that face a lot of the same constraints I do as a Hobbyist.
How MK Milling Cases are Made!
Wanted to share the process I follow to make my wooden top mount keyboard cases. Had an opportunity with a custom design and build that I took some video during, and compiled it all into a quick summary of the effort.
This was a one off design, but you can see all the cases I stock at my website, www.mkmilling.com
I also do custom commissioned cases if there is something unique you are interested in.

PrintNC Foam Filled X-Gantry Upgrade!
Просмотров 22 тыс.3 года назад
The topic of filling the frame of the PrintNC with some sort of either expanding or solid cast material comes up all the time in discussion and questions. I thought I would take a shot at filling the X-gantry with some expanding Polyurethane foam and see if I could evaluate whether there were any improvements from this effort, and help others decide if its worth their investment. Polyurethane F...

PrintNC Pro Motor Mount Installation
Просмотров 21 тыс.3 года назад
I just want to start off by stating that I am super happy and satisfied with the performance and ease of use for the baseline design of the PrintNC. However, as an Engineer by trade and passion, I enjoy pushing the limits of performance while maintaining the scope and boundary of an affordable DIY option. All of these upgrades I am in the process of and have planned are purely based on the fact...
PrintNC Drilling (Close up)
Просмотров 2,7 тыс.3 года назад
*Important note* I fully expect this type of deflection from the design, by no means is this a complaint or an issue with my machine, just wanted to share some video of what it looks like. I am beyond impressed with ability of this design to. cut through aluminum at such high MRR. Regular topic in the discord is drilling with the CNC. Pulled some clips from a few pieces of footage I had to spec...
PrintNC Pro Motor Mount BK & Stepper

Some footage of my PNC machining it's replacement motor mounts. These will be the 2nd to last major swap of plastic for aluminum once they are complete. This is just the components that will mount the stepper motor and BK blocks, the main base piece was already machined, and the footage I had got corrupted. However, this one does come with a fun workholding ( or lack thereof ) surprise at the e...

PrintNC Manual Tool Change Tool Length Offset using LinuxCNC (5x speed)
For those watching and listening carefully, the objective was to mirror the component... this is not a mirrored part. It is a copy. So after this is made you will find that your smaller threaded holes are opposite of what you need. Making functional parts is a "black & white" world. I will say the content is good though.
Hello great machine ! What tubes dimension and thickness did you use ?
Or 6 pound foam is the wrong density..
Wow..!! I cant thank you enough..! Tips I have not even seen on Fusion Official Channel ..!! Please Do more advanced stuff on Soft Jaws and Origin Point Setup While Flipping or Doing OP2 with Softjaws. Tutorials on Complex Components mounting at weird angles on soft jaws for OP2 and figuring out how to define origin point for such secondary machining operations..etc And Also I Couldnt Find much more on Multi axis CAM Concepts based on Centre Of Rotation Because We are mostly going to have affordable machines without DWO or TCPC kind of high Tech Stuff..! I think these topics are yet to be covered in depth....!!! Again Thanks for taking time and putting effort to educate us..!
Dayum, is this a 3d printer or what.. so fast
I just keep getting "Empty toolpath" no matter what I try. I've tried selecting the top edge, bottom edge, the chamfer surface, setting the width, offset and clearance to different things. Such a stupid operation. Why would they make it so difficult to use the chamfer operation to cut a chamfer that's already modeled?
The fastest and most pointless way to scrap a project. Water cooling is fine for aluminum milling machines, but not the wooden plate as a base! Water causes the wood to swell and all programming is pointless.🤔
brilliant, thank you.
Thank you. Couldn't find anywhere how to avoid fixtures. Thank you for this!
Mass = less vibration.
thank you so much! This is honestly an incredible tutoria!
this was literally the besth thing ever thank you so much!
Nice try but the reason you don’t observe any notable change in the airborne sound level is because the x-gantry is not the dominant source of noise! To observe a change in the broadband level like that the x-gantry beam would need to be contributing as much sound energy as the spindle and spindle/material connection combined, which of course, it doesn’t. You need to measure the vibration displacement of the gantry in one or more dimensions and then analyse it in the frequency domain against a range of rpm without load and under load. You then identify the more resonant frequencies and then come up with a way to treat them(which is a different post altogether)
can you slow the fuck down. not everyone is running an rtx 6090ti and intel 18900k for a brain. why are you speed running this shit????!!!1
Is your spindle 1.5 or 2.2 kw? thanks.
Hi MK. Just saw you video for the first time. I am building a cnc machine an I'm using a 6"x3" heavy walled aluminum extrusion from 8020. I plan to install a 4hp water cooled spindle. I saw a video that was 4-5 years old but it was of a cnc'er with a similar build. He used his X axis tube as a water reservoir by enclosing the ends with 1/2" lexan and running water lines to one end. I'm thinking of giving it a try on my machine. Sorry the foam idea wasn't sucessful. It sounded like a good idea! Dennis Huddleston
The file that do cnc from where you get it
much better quality of life then on my x5 mastercam
great experiment, good to see it being tried. I'd guess the foam is so much softer than the steel, that its damping has little impact. Perhaps something more rigid/stiffer would do better
Why foam? You want mass and strength.. foam has neither. Mix two part epoxy with the mill chips you have around the shop- 75% chips, 25% epoxy. Vibrate to remove bubbles and voids. If you're feeling real brave, shove the biggest Chinese Steel l threaded rod you can get and then epoxy around it.
Thanks for testing, learnt from it for when i build mine.....maybe someone should try filling with well dried out sand to see if it helps which can be removed if it didn't work out.......
Только бетон поможет!! Большой вес и жёсткость два самых важных параметра фрезерного станка!!
Thanks for testing this theory and sharing it with us! I’m new to the printnc community but everyone seems really helpful and working towards the goal of always improving the design and functionality.
Whoever is reading this. Spoiler alert in oder to save you 11min of your life Foam made no difference
how do i set this up i have hooked mine up to my breakout board now what do i need to do. im using axis gui on 2.8.2
looks like the website is completely dead
Yeah, I came across this today and would like to buy one of these but can't find a trace online :(
Check out where your chips are jumping around while cutting. thats the part you need to address to reduce the noise. so your MDF board where the vice is mounted to start with
Fantastic conclusion on a well run experiment. Love how you were honest and realistic about the outcome. Subscribed 👍
i bet if there was some good way to fill it almost full of sand without it leaking that would be a pretty effective way to dampen most of the vibrations.
Hey man, first off I want to thank you for sharing your videos with niche people like us. I never made one, or worked with one, but I am strongly considering making Print NC myself. I was worried if I make it huge, like 2 meters x 1.5 meters that it won't be sturdy enough to cut aluminum, as I want to try to work with both wood and aluminum. I see yours is quite big, so do you mind sharing the working area of your machine ?
Outdated and doesn't function.
Just thinking out loud here, but has anyone tried filling it with sand?
Helpful, but the critical part that seems to be missing is how to adjust the pucker distance from your modelled fixture. A programmer may run the toolpath to 0.000000001" of the vise jaws, but in practice, you really want a good 0.050" or more just because cutters and jaws are expensive to replace if your toolpath takes 0.001" off the hardened ground jaw.
shit .001 off the top of a jaw is how i like to hone my insert edges
Nice video! If you don't mind me asking, what kind of insert do you use at 2:06? And i'm also curious about the glue.
Great content, but you should slow down and show what your actually clicking, super hard to follow along.
This was super, super helpful. Thanks!
May you please tell me which stepper motor you are using? is it nema 17?
good
You can fill the tubes with sand to reduce the sound. Would be nice trying using a vaccum pump to remove the air inside the tubes. Sorry for my english.
@MK Milling that is really interesting that you have a db meter there; I was wondering what the difference is inside and outside the enclosure? how much does it dempen?
Looking good!
This is awesome. Quality of life implementations are huge. Building an ATC for my tormach made me realize how important simplifying time consuming tasks can be. It's such a nice feature and this is another thing I'm definitely planning on implementing on my router once I get it finished
Such a great help! Even though I had my fixture modeled, I never used it because I couldn't get fusion to stop including the entire fixture in the work envelope. In addition, I also followed NYCNC's video about modeling the stock from years ago, but I also got this weird warning that Fusion would select all models.... It wasn't until this video that it all clicked. What I was doing wrong was not isolating all the components. In the past, I was just selecting the fixtured model and that was it. While watching the video, I selected the fixture model, the part models (this was the missing piece) and the stock model. Boom! It worked, Thanks so much!
Hi, I have this setup (bought a little touchplate rather than making one, but otherwise effectively the same), how do you do the zeroing with the touchplate? I've set up the probe screen and it does the probing part fine, but firstly there is nowhere I can see to set the thickness of the touchplate (which obviously needs to be factored in) nor does the information gained from the probing appear to actually be used to set the Z zero for subsequent operations.

Installed this weekend linux 2.8.2 using axis. Works beautifully.
Sand would have been a good idea. However, its better for a fixed gantry machine.
