    With a little bit of circuit design, I was able to add one of the sexiest features from a Datron CNC to my skeletonized Shapeoko.

    Some videos I used to understand transistors and make a test circuit:

    "Transistor circuit 1 NPN BJT 2N2222 switch for beginner DIY electronics hobbyists": • Transistor circuit 1 N...
    Once you get the basics down, you can usually figure out the implementation out on your own. Getting comfortable with the terminology and wiring these up was by biggest hurdle.

    Now, in the spirit of digital electronics 101, redo the entire circuit using only NAND gates.

      I was going to say something similar! I'm disappointed you didn't optimize your combinational logic circuit using a Karnaugh map.

    • @cliveso

      That's exactly my thought too!

    You should slide some thin HDPE or fogged acrylic strips inside the gantry. That way the light gets diffused and the whole thing glows. And why stop at the gantry, add some more strips to the side rails as well!

    I'm disappointed you didn't optimize your combinational logic circuit using a Karnaugh map. Honestly, I expected more from you Winston. Also you know way too much about this stuff to call yourself a noob. Well done sir. Let me know if you want a crash course in PCB design. I literally cringed when you laid out your proto board pattern using fusion! Love the result, very impressive!

    Nice project, but i dont get it, why you did not design a circuit board if you mill it yourself anyway.

      I thought that at first, but then he said he'd not got to learning that yet.

    Resisting the urge to say "Transistors are amplifiers, not switches."
    Oops. Said it anyway.
    This is seriously cool. Thanks for sharing.

    EE here, cool build. When you do end up designing some proper PCBs please consider using KiCad. Also, you probably already know this, but with milling PCBs it's best to use an electric probe to depth map the blank copper clad and compensate in software.

    • @LucasHartmann
      @LucasHartmann 4 года назад +1

      Kicad, FlatCAM, bCNC. They have their quirks, but they are my heroes.

  • @dragoncracker

    give KiCad and/or Eagle a look for designing circuits. they are both free and have been a blast to use

    Why will the adv. v. Carve not satisfy the pocket with a v carve bit,it leaves raised areas.

    Where’s the Boolean algebra? 😉

    Winston - you could/should have used an Arduino, and made a custom breakout PCB for it. You could have also used a WS2812 LED strip then, allowing you to do custom shades, color patterns etc.

    After watching for a year ...I started out completely clueless and slowly learned what adaptive clearing and chip load refers to. I understand a little more about Fusion 360 during your videos and now this!!!! Awe I guess I won't be having multi colored lights any time soon!!

    I tried my hand at PCB's prototyping on our CNC at work, but I found it wasn't worth it for my use case. All my designs are intended to be fabricated professionally for the final product. I found that you end up making so many compromises to to accommodate the CNC, that it is faster to just send the board out instead of having to layout the board twice. Where this is might be useful is for one off boards you don't intend to have fab'ed, boards where you absolutely have to have that day, or RF boards with crazy shapes for filters or antennas.

    Hi Winston, for brass cutting which you recommend, Dewalt D26200 or Makita RT0700C

  • @StefsEngineering
    @StefsEngineering 4 года назад

    nice thanks for sharing, definately something I can use in my own builds! I'm quite bad at electronics so this helped me for sure!

  • @joefratoni909
    @joefratoni909 4 года назад

    This is exactly what I was hoping to do! I would recommend trying Frtizing if you're a newbie to circuit design. I couldn't figure out Autodesk eagle quickly enough (sorry I'm an architect not an engineer) but Frtizing was super easy for me to figure out how to mill my first PCB for a camera rail I built.

    Dang, I went back to school and DEEPLY miss the ability to blast couple weeks away on small projects like this :(. 3 semesters left.....

  • @ipadize

    doing this in Linuxcnc is really easy. You can use the classicladder to get the state of the machine and then have a logic control the leds. You could also add a button to permanently disable the leds.

    Any chances you’ll release a video about swapping the y axis plates to move the x axis slightly further back like it is in this video?

    Thanks for the video Winston. Looking good. Keep safe and stay well.

    Great Job. As an EE and CS, I have to admit I've built projects that way too. Looking forward to more.

    I will never do this or anything close to it but I enjoyed watching your process.

    I half expected you to make it an infinity led setup inside the skel'd gantry, especially when the infinity mirror was briefly shown.

  • @ffoska

    Very cool idea. This could be built into the control boards by default

    Can you throw in that link to the bit runner video?
    Great stuff as ever.
