How did he build his own? Is that much cheaper? Currently looking at getting into this instead of other woodwork I currently do due to a car crash I can’t do as much!
Depending on your skills and tools you may wan to consider building a CNC router to suit your needs. Many parts are available on line and there is a lot written in forums and articles. Best part is that you can save a lot of money and may end up with a far better router than you can buy. In order to fully utilize the router you will need software including CAD, CAM, and CNC. It will take time and effort to learn but in the long run you'll probably wonder how you worked w/o it.
*Starting to change out all my corded tools to cordless and the **MyBest.Tools** are excellent.I just recently used it to router hinges for a 4 sets of doors with no issues and still plenty of power left (used a 3ah battery).Great visibility at the cutting area also.*
Any machine that will accommodate a 24x48 sheet with a thickness up to 5 inches is a good beginner machine. This will allow for growth. The machine shouls use ball screws and have a feed rate of around 10 IPS at a minimum. Vacuum tables are nice, but vacuum attachments are a must. Grizzly has some nice tables.
For someone that has never owned a CNC machine, but it looking at doing projects similar to the ones shown in this video, what's a good machine for that kind of use? I understand that there is software that needs to be learned in order to get to the point of actually utilizing the CNC, so any advice anyone has about a good machine and where a good place to get one would be is greatly appreciated!
I'm in the same boat. I would like to be able to reliably cut and make functional aluminum parts. Not sure what requirements you're after but for under $1500-ish I'm looking at doing what this guy did. ruclips.net/p/PLBZzwzFSuXxWRDc3m-rTJK1M9INEcz61y The addition of the steel plate that guy does really stiffens everything up. The way the machine is built also seems to lend itself to future mechanical and electric upgrades. Right off the bat I can tell you adding some jack screws to the upper spindle assembly and where the gantry meets the linear bearings would be a great addition.
It's a knife, that can pivot freely 360 degrees. The point of contact between knife and stock (material being cut) is slightly behind the axis of rotation, much like free coasting wheels under some furniture or wheelchairs. You can 'tell' the software (eg Vectric, Artcam etc) how far the cutting point is behind the rotary axis. The software adjusts it's movements accordingly, so that the knife point moves along the required path. Some higher performance foil cutters have knives, that actively turn and don't depend on drag to make them turn.
Is there a manual that tells us these feeds and speeds and how they apply? The video shows what it does but doesn’t explain how to operate a CNC machine. Maybe it would be a good idea for another video?
How easy would this be to learn for someone with no woodworking or CNC experience? And how long did it take to make the first coffee sign? I’ve been looking at the Glowforge pro model but think I like the CNC routers better.
Took me 1full week learning fusion 360 and 1-2 weeks playing around for my part. The software part is easy compare to the feed and speed learning curved. ;)
I looked at this video. I am concern about the letter carving. I was doing a job recently and the letters keep breaking. Notice this one in the video works perfectly. but in following, I missed out on a step. after the roughing path is completed, the 60 degrees vbit is used. what am I missing because the vbit is only used on the letters.
Wanted to know the CAM software you used for this .In the pocket and 60 degree V bit use, did you use 60 degree Vbit as clearing tool and 1/4 inch end mill as roughing tool /large area clearance tool ?
Hello! do u have a list of spindle speed used on different materials. It will surely help all of us on a CNC world. I have a desktop homemade CNC the size of a 3018 CNC but all made from scrap materials, It can do most of the cutting job i needed for my small projects and not going into the big sophisticated world of CNC milling. That list will surely of help to us. Thank you.
One of my first jobs was a beginning computer "operator". Programers would lay out women's undergarments on a reel; at which I would draw out paper or mylar the length of 144 inches on a table 48 inches wide. A platform having a head would travel on the X axis (from one side to the other); while, the platform over the table travelled it's full length being the Y axis. Likened to a cad machine, but 10 times bigger cutting or drawing various patterns and styles for women in the sixties. First thing, I would zero out both x and y axis which brought back the head dead center of the table. All programs started upon these coordinates... push a button and sneak off to take a nap... just kidding.
You've shown great projects. Your Axiom Hold Down Clamps seems to be a really good product. Normally, does polycarbonate cost more than acrylic ? Easier to find acrylic in hardware store where I am. I wish to do a LED light sign.
Hi, Very interesting this video, at the moment I'm building my own CNC, and I was very interested in cutting cardboard, where can I buy that kind of knife? I've seen some for the vinyl cut. Thank you.
I work for an exhibit house and our CNC router isn't half as capable as this one. Outside of cutting rabbits/dados it only drills holes and cuts the outside profile lol
Nice videos, yes cnc router machine could engrave MDF, PVC, Arylic, Metal, PCB, Aluminum board, without complex training, through simple training of emplyee without skilled engineer, they can also do the job well.
how much does a machine like that cost?can you get 1 for couple hundreds or 1,2 k $? i don't need a proffestional just to do like in video on small desk or table.
So you need to change bits types throughout a project. Does the machine stop and say hey I need this bit now or are you just suppose to know what bit and when?
want to make wood lettering. I have a 3d printer, small. where to go to figure out what is needed and how to get started. what computer program to run this and so forth. bits, and any other items needed. thanks
So where to begin. I like modifying parts for small toys in order to mount small laser diode or simply replace broken internal parts with fixed ones. I had hoped to get a router for around $500 to start and see what I can do with a small setup as the only things I'm planning to make are not bigger than the palm of my hand. I thought all I'd need was a Router, Software, stable flat, and mount but Im thinking that's not even half what I need. Ill be working with wood, plastic, and polymers if I can get my hands on them.
A newbie here. I'm perfectly fine with the V-Bit cutting, but I tried to reproduce your exact image and I can't get it to work for me. How large is the image? Maybe I just have it too small?
Just wondering if you would recommend a cnc router to me? There seems to be so many different types and I would like to purchase one. 24 by 36 bed approx.
2:41 *This video brilliantly showcases the versatility of CNC routers, demonstrating their capability to handle a wide range of materials with precision*
This is so cool. My husband built his own machine, so we have no manual to consult. Can’t wait to show him this :)
I’m working on building my own so hats off to your husband, it’s not easy

What do you recommend as a starting cnc
I'm interested in that as well
Make it three of us that are interested in a good start up CNC.
Building a Gatton CNC is something that's really fun to do. I just finished a build and it's all constructed of wood and plywood. Works great.
Make that 4 ...lol
now 5. I'm only familar with Xcarv from a guy I studied with. I only assume it's at the bottom of the ladder due to it's ubiquity.
what softweare is used for cnc router?
Just got the Fox Alien Masuter CNC. It’s awesome.
are all cnc machines doing this manually are or is it instructed to do so?
Yes, totally agree, wood cnc routers can do all that
Thanks for the vid ♥️

What cnc router are you using?
Anyone any good suggestions for a CNC machine? Looking to get into it
What did you use to carve before, maybe I can give you some reference suggestions
Great Educational Video.....
What kind of table is this ? where can one purchase ?
Hi my husband sells this machine, if you need I can let him to contact you
What kind of wood is that? that can handle all that detailed cutting? is it mahoghany? or Birch?

Love the versatility of this one but which Laguna router is this
@@Wood The majority of this video showcases an Axiom Precision CNC machine. Not the Laguna.
So which one?
These machines amaze me. I have a project I’d like to have done by a professional with a cnc. How do I find someone?
Are you anywhere near AL?

Walter Greenaway : Servo motor is better
I need this in my life :D
Can this machine carve into wood pieces that are 1inch in diameter and maybe have inch thickness for decorative art and design work?
great video
Loved the USMC logo. That's a neat bit for that application. Thanks for the vid!
hi can u link me the other tool use with chunk for cutter and diamond
Please provide the address of the dealer/distributor of this cnc router machine in *Indonesia* .
Im using artcam on my cnc machine, but with small project cutting are not even, they irregular or poor finish, how can i fix that?
How do you find people who do this kind of work for furniture?
Wanted to know the CAM software you used for this .In the pocket and 60 degree V bit use, did you use 60 degree Vbit as clearing tool and 1/4 inch end mill as roughing tool /large area clearance tool ?
How much cost this type of drag knife and does it fit any machine? I like it
I need to know about CNC router 1325
Outstanding work by cnc machines I would like know about the machine your using and software operation and setup or a project ..
good job

No prices on the Laguna website. Contact them for a quote! From past experience that means my wife's answer will most definitely be NO! 😭
$6k
Just priced a shop sabre 23 with a lot of accessories and ended up right under 10k for a 110 version. Hopefully sealing a deal by Christmas.
