Awesome printer thanks for sharing , if I don't make a mistake, you introduced also another CNC printer, which I purchased in past, I wish I purchased this one instead 😊
Excellent review. I am interested in cutting foam wings, Is it limited to constant chord wings ? or are you able to cut different root and tip chord widths and thicknesses ?
Unfortunately discontinued. Non commercial CNC hotwire cutters seem to as rare as hens teeth ! I've found a manufacturer in Eastonia ( a country just east of Germany) and asked for a quote. They make commercial machines, but I've asked them to quote on their smallest machine that looks a similar size as this one.
I now use a single point attachment hot wire, that I pull the wire around an inside aluminum template to make tapered wings. It's like 138" long.Would this one have enough strength to allow a couple of pounds pull on the wire attachment to direct the wire around the airfoil shape? Thanks! 😀
excellent video and tutorial. I would like to use this technics to cut a fuselage of a plane. the cut half profiles should be changed anytime the rotary axis moves. I am looking for a software to generate the gcodes... not found yet ! Any idea on how to cut this king of non symetical profiles ?
hi, your video turned out great! I’ve had the machine for less than a year and everything was fine, I adjusted the string tension, temperature and speed. all was good. But a couple of days, in places where the string passes simultaneously along the X-axis and the Y-axis, small waves are visible on the cut material due to the fact that the string vibrates. square shapes cut fine. but on rounded forms a problem appears. maybe you can tell me how to fix this?
hi this is ok, but how do u cut centres out of letters? it will need to be told to go in and come out of the same path so theres only one path in and out thanks
Hello, I live in the USA and I am interested in manufacturing an EPS cutter for 60x120x100 centimeter blocks, with the hot wire in the direction of the 120 centimeter measurement, Thank you
Hey brotha I created a GCode on fusion 360 but on grbl its coming out a little weird, do you think I can send you the file and you can check it out for me? I needed this specific profile, it's little bigger than printer can support but I am trying to do in sections
Diy your own it's basically a 3d printer sibling. most of the parts are the same. i made mine from an old printer and scrap wood had to buy like $40 worth of stuff to finish it. this is the best video i have found to make the gcode. check out "rckeith" he's got all the plans to make one .

It can only cut constant chord wings, for different root and tip wings you need a 4 axis machine.

Very good, thanks
Looks like FoxAlien is no longer making the HW40. Also Autodesk is not supporting the slicer anylonger.
Bravo. Perfect
Looks like they stopped making these. Website product search shows not found now. 😢

There's gotta be a better way to make gcode than that Inkscape plugin. I've been using it for engraving/milling and it grates a bit.
if I'd waited 0.5 seconds I'd have seen you go on to Fusion 360 :D
I agree it wouldn’t be a natural choice, although I like Inkscape itself. You can use pretty much any cad / cam with a grbl post processor.

So disappointed.. why they stop making these cool machines. Dumb me should have bought it, when they came out. Now no one makes them... Like WTF....
It is a very niche product
