Longmill mk2 30x48 control box | RATTLECAN FAB SHOP with James O'Rear
On today's episode of Rattlecan Fab shop I prototype a control box for the Longmill mk2 30x48 CNC router mill by Sienci Labs. I used avalable materials (chipboard) to quickly create a box to house the control and power supply as well as a mini-PC. I added cooling fans to move some air if needed and also added power conditioning with an APC UPS and a Pyle switch bank.

Hi there James. Really nice video, thanks for taking the time to show us everything.
Hey, would you be able to provide a link or something for the APC 1500 that you have, or do you remember about how much it cost?
I googled it, but a few with different prices came up so I'm not sure which one is the right one.
Thanks a lot. 👍

Would a temperature probe near the PC help in indicating when to kick the fans on?

[@RattlecanFabShop]

Perhaps. I think that might be the hottest part of the box. We'll see, part arrives in a couple of days. Thanks for stopping by Mike.
