DIY CNC Early Prototype _ First Moves
*Looks Great!!! What Proxy did you use?*
FIRST - I would have likely made the emblem an entire plaque that just gets "inlaid" into the bowl. That was probably a PITA working in the bottom of the bowl like that.
Can you leave a link to router bits. That you utilized. Looks amazing!!
there ar no mistakes, just differences that make it unique.
Holy Schitt!! That is ABSOLUTELY BAD ASS!! Very inspiring! You definitely got a SUBSCRIBER!!
Beautiful work...the camera did not capture the carving out of the letters, which appeared to have been filled with black resin a second time. Yes?
No, the lettering was done during the red step after the black flood fill.
Ty, what was your final sanding grit on the epoxy? BTW, if you are in the SoCal area our CNC Inland Empire Woodworking club would love for you to give us a presentation.
@Mattvalor I think I took the epoxy face to 800g on this one. 220-400g is usually about as far as the wood needs to go but the epoxy can benefit from the extra attention. Then again in this case the real life patches are not glossy so there was no need to polish all the way to 3000+ Wow, I am very glad to hear that your group is enjoying my work. I am not in California but I am more than happy to chat any time. There was another person on here asking about some of my fusion360 settings for this project and I was planning to punch it up in the video description. Maybe you all will find that useful as well.
@@TyMakesStuff Yes sharing files would be great...as a newbie to CNC using VCarve Pro, I am still struggling with the cad/cam. thanks Ty
Ty, I mixed translucent yellow dye with epoxy to fill small flowers, but after curing you can see straight to the bottom of the mahogany. What dyes to you use that are not translucent?
Great project I would look at getting a custom dust shoe for the spindle for easier removal of the shavings. To reduce the stress do the epoxy work as separate parts and then inlay them into the tray as a finishing step. IMHO Great CAM work shows in the finished product (: (:
I know its asking a lot, but what feeds, speeds, depth of cut and types of endmills are you using? Did you do the cam using fusion? The rough resembles mastercam.
is each element a different cutting program??
Yes that's right. I bundled each machine opp by color.
Did you design the tray yourself? Would love to make something similar with my own rank and unit patches. Also, thank you for popping the air bubble in the mineral oil at the end. It was driving me nuts.😂😂 Semper Fi, Brother!
I designed the tray in fusion360 and the rank insignia and squadron patch were converted to svg from regular images. You can probably find nice sharp svg's of your unit patches on etsy for a few bucks If you want to save some time.
Very nice. It’s always stressful for me when I do something I never done before. So many steps that have to be done in the right order. Thanks for sharing.
What brand is that CNC and is it pretty ridged ?
It is a custom built Cnc. It is ridged enough for my needs but thats highly subjective. I use it almost exclusively for wood carving and pattern cutting sheet goods. Plenty of stiffness for that even with the large size.
@@TyMakesStuff Oh ok. Well it looks very nice.
Great Job!!! I like your spoil board set up as well.
Were the squadron patch and SSGT directly imported or was there a conversion program involved?
I converted the original images into svg's and cleaned them up a little using Adobe Capture and then imported to fusion360.
@@TyMakesStuff thanks so much. Just started w/my CNC gathering as much info as I can. Great job, air wing Devil Dog, I’m assuming
Once upon a time.
What epoxy and coloring did you use?
Total boat general purpose epoxy and a combination of mica powder and alcohol inks for the pigment.
Keep the videos coming
I don't care for the design, but that's an amazing job.
This is a great point. The Marine Corps is known for many things but not for their taste and skill in the arts. I'm kicking myself now that you pointed this out because what matters in these epoxy inlays is how closely it matches the original. I should have made a point of showing the original squadron patch in the video for comparison. Won't make that mistake again.
Wow beautiful work ❤how much cost
Material cost? Maybe 10 bucks. I get the walnut from a local hardwood supplier. Straight from the scrap offcuts bin for $3/lb. Epoxy isn't cheap but probably just a few dollars worth is used here. Labor cost? Well.... 😂
👍👍👍👍👍
Nice work 👍
Looks great!
It's not really a "meme" though is it? It was a video of a girl being silly, I don't know why this is famous. You people are starved
Nice clock. I'm glad you didn't go with the Latin numbers, way overdone. Looks very clean and appealing. Which clock kit did you go with?
Thanks yea just a shop best to keep it utilitarian. Link to clock mechanism below. TIKROUND Youngtown High Torque Long Shaft Clock Movement Mechanism with 12 Inch Long Spade Hands a.co/d/097DpKZw
Hello, what engine model is it?

Is rigidity enough for work with aluminum ?
It can machine aluminum in small amounts. Certainly enough for small prototype work. But as it is with nearly all of these non-professional machines the lack of what I would call extreme rigidity causes tools to age rapidly.
@@TyMakesStuff may I ask u to share stl`s for your custom aluminum profiles stands, and belt tights?
In this video I show the process of manufacturing and installing your own DIY CNC Is it manufactured by you?
I did not manufacture the entire machine. Many of the parts were purchased online. Fasteners, linear rails, aluminum extrusion, stepper motors, drag chains etc. All off-the-shelf. But I did manufacture a lot of it. The gantry was designed by me and cut out of sheet stock plywood by an older iteration of this machine (which was itself built with traditional wood shop tools and a 3d printer). All of the structural hardware is 3d printed and designed by me. The spindle mount, bearing plates, and belt tensioners were also produced this way, and so on.
Impressive work and machine
I became the 100th subscriber
the use case is to get more z height?
Exactly right, and also standing boards and panels on edge for joinery etc.
Very cool. Did you draw it up your self
No I got the file from etsy. Mostly a shakedown of the new machine.
It feels like u didn't use any kind of professional rails for Y. That is common al structural profile with plenty of bearings? Am i right?
Yes that's right, off the shelf aluminum extrusion rails and delrin wheels.
What controller are u using? And what did u use as rails for Y ?
The machine is currently controlled by the Openbuilds Blackbox system and the linear rails are 20x40mm VSlot extruded aluminum with 3d printed mounts. The 3d printed mounts are filled with epoxy.
why did u made different mechanisms for Y axis? Does it gives extra rigidity? Or what is the sense?
The Y axis is belt drive because the machine has a 9 foot run in the Y direction and I could not find/afford lead screws or ball screws that large.
Yes, great work. Looks really beautiful. i mean that left and right sides of Y has different mounts and mechanisms in total. Can u share technical details why did u make it this way? @@TyMakesStuff
@user-do6co4fi7r Oh ok I understand the question now thank you! So this design has evolved a lot since I first started building the machine. Originally, the plan was to make a router that would travel along the entire length of any wall mounted workbench without being in the way. So the reason for the front edge (camera left in the video) of the gantry sitting lower than the back edge is to keep everything below flush. This allows me to use the workbench when the gantry is stowed away. Right now the spoilboard is a bit thinner than I anticipated so the Y2 belt sits just above flush, but I am still able to slide heavy sheet goods onto the workbench without the drive system getting in the way. If you watch my other video showing the first prototype you will see the y belt resting well below flush at the forward edge. (Edited to add the following) Another initial consideration was modularity. The router system is fastened to the pre-existing workbench, rather than being fully integrated into it if that makes sense. Because of this it is necessary to establish a reference datum to square the machine relative to itself. In this setup the front rail is fixed and the back rail slides free in the XY plane until square is found using the gantry as a spacing jig. Then the back rail is screwed down.
@@TyMakesStuff thanks for your time. are u calling back rail the upper rail (right side) from camera view?
Yes that's right
Promo>SM 🤷
Great work man. Is your gantry made out of wood?
Yep. It's all layered 3/4" Birch Plywood.
@@TyMakesStuff, painted yellow? It looks like solid piece of cast iron!!!!
Nothing better than having your feeds and speeds dialed in just right.
Brilliant!
Could you please show your cnc in detail.
This was an early prototype of my CNC that I unfortunately did not capture much video of
So can you show the current diy version? Like a product review.
Well thats gonna be a wood splitter to pass down the generations. Very nice!!
Well done. New subscriber 😅
