This is one of the best custom built CNC i have seen on RUclips. Most of them are made by people with huge experience in mechanics, tons of tools and another lathe or router. Thing is that people watching those videos don't have either experience, nor tools, and definetly lathe, so Your video is very helpful and inspiring.
This is the truth
First thought @0:10 : "What a piece of crap!!"
Second thought @ 2:00 : "Y'know.. you could learn a lot from this project, and not spend a lot of money"
Third thought @ 3:00 : "Well, shoot. Why didn't I think of doing this earlier?!!? What is there to lose?"
Hats off to you!

Start small, low tolerance... AND LEARN WHY EVERYTHING IS AS IT IS.
DOING, NOT GUESSING.
MAKE MISTAKES, TO LEARN FROM.
I like how you made an I3 style cnc router years before I3 style printers were common.
Planning to build a similar machine and I found your experiences and the "what I'd do differently" part very interesting. Thanks :)
Really great project and how you tackled everything is inspirational...
I'm used to larger, corded routers ruclips.net/user/postUgkxfQ5_mgwq6PcudJvAH25t-I4D-3cTPz4z so this was a different experience for me. Basically, this is an incredibly sweet machine, fits well in the hand, etc. It has slightly less power than I'm used to, but that's understandable. Maneuvering freehand takes some practice. These days, it's especially nice to be able to avoid power cords. This is above the level of a hobbyist but below a pro level.
Probably the bes video for cnc beginners. Thank you!
Dear Stephan it is always a pleasure to watch your videos!
Wow i always thought i was to much of a perfectionist to use wood and drawer rails. You have proved me wrong and you were able to learn a lot quicker than me!
Five years ago I had the same plan, building a cnc router. I wanted to incorporate parts from old printers etc. but I realised soon enough it would be too big a challenge to fit all these parts together and have a rigid and accurate machine. So I decided to design my own cnc router. Therefor I had to buy some tools and use the expertise of a colleague at work to fabricate one or two parts. The rest I did by myself. The build took four years, it seemed like forever, but the ton of experience I got is priceless. Nice videos Stefan! Keep posting.
Michiel van Hees can somebody make his 3d printer 👉 a car key cutter/engraver ? (notice it has to precisly make the cuts on the blank new key which has a small area)
Fantastic video in every point of view, the speech, the voice, and the video quality awesome, informative, short, and sharp enough. All together a perfect example for how-to-create an educational video. Congrats, and thank you!
@CNC Kitchen Hey! Just wanted to thank you, saw your video over a year ago with this machine in it, and decided to build my own. The first one was kinda bad, but it worked, currently testing the second iteration, and it works great.
Chinese router, with box section frame, metric threads, and a with a workspace of 320x250x60.
Interestingly mine also looses steps, with specific feeds. It was a nightmare to debug, but I think I finally got it working.
Tried the drawer sliders, but they got real bad deflection, currently using 3d printer bearings for small loads, and a combination of 608 bearings on an aluminium profile for high loads.Works great.
Thanks for your work.Great video, as always.
I made a wood CNC machine as well, it was my very first electronics build. I LOVE your design, especially the use of the joist hanger for mounting the router.
I have collected a lot of part from 3D printers over the years and think this might be my next project, thanks for the video and information !!!
wow, didn't expect to see cnc made out of wood, it's relatable to not have metalworking toolset and needing a cnc too much!
i think i gotta repeat this project next month!
thanks for sharing!
Thanks for showing the iteration's and improvements👍
nice CNC Stephen you inspire me to build myself one :) great work!
I like it! My son and I have been talking about building a cnc. This looks like a good example to follow
Excellent build guide from the bottom up with limited tools and materials. The follow up retrospect advice was really helpful. For a startup on a limited budget and space, its inspiring . Thanks
I wouldn't have imagined. Very cool! 💟
Amazing ! Finally some educative video with great ideas rather than typical kit building video. Thanks man !
Thanks for the video. I've been looking to do my own CNC. This video is a good starting point. Thanks.
Thx for making this Video!!
I wish to thank you. You have made up my mind that I need to build one my self.
That's rad. I love the idea of a wooden cnc anything
Fantastic!!
I want to do the exact same thing right now!
Thanks for inspiration, I would have never thought about using wood.
And I can use wood easily so once again 👍👍👍👍
Good video and Excellent Verbal Walk Through - Thank You for making and posting
This is awesome. I am looking to build my own CNC router and while I'm not going to use your design, you did mention several things that will help mine. Thank you.
Very good! Inspiring, informative, positive, useful critical analysis, real examples. Solid presentation without tedious fluff.
This is absolutely great! Creating a useful machine with what you have! I hope you save this machine as part of your history and evolution as a mechanical engineer! Thank you for posting this!
i love your style - open mind is great - your english is super - your future is paved with awesome things
Nice piece Stefan.
this seems really good I'm looking to make a budget one just for fun over the new year and this seams like a great place to start
Lots of great ideas sir. Thanks for the great video. Shows what one's mind can do if really applied. Thanks again.
you are the best I found so far man! keep up the good work!
this is the only video i found which is helpful for me in all the ways for building my own
Awesome job, thanks for sharing!
Makes for a nice entry point into CNC. THANKS.
I started to build one with drawer slides. Works pretty good. Cheap and simple.
Fantastic design and build. Great narration as well!
Awesome, thanks for sharing!
I like it a lot. Here, such ingenuity is considered awesome, the basis of who we are. Well done. It is not what you have, but what you can do with what you have that is important.
Wow! Tastefully done! I was just in the process of making my own DIY CNC router out of parts scrounged from my garage, the backyard, a junk bin full of stuff that maybe would come in handy someday, like IKEA bed frame birch plywood that was up in the attic for decades! And old drawer glides! I was going to buy a really good one for about $500 but my wife convinced me to try and do it myself. I actually like making tools better than using them to make stuff.
Thanks for this video, really helps me in planning mine!
Nice job, thanks for sharing!
Möjn,möjn..
I think you've done some good work with this one. Thanks for sharing the ideas and your thoughts about how to improve the machine. I'm in the progress of building one myself.
Guess it will be a long and cumbersome way. However, you showed me it can be done without expensive materials.
Cool project. Im considering building a wood cnc. Youve Given me quite a few ideas to play with.
Very nice setup. It’s good to see that with a small investment you are able to create a really nice working machine.
Just found this video and WOW this is now on my project list. Right after I finish my hypercube
Nice Machine ;-)
My router also started with a Proxxon "Dremel", and is waiting for the 2kw water cooled spindel for some years now... Fortunately i started with NEMA 23 Steppers.
Harbor Freight! Ha ha ha
What a cool project!
Well done and thank you so much for sharing! :)
Using industrial drawer runners was inspired!
Really good to see this and how it works etc..thanks...Laurie
Great build thanks for sharing.
Top vid fella keep on making them 👍
I made a 4ftx6ft version of this from plans I bought online back in 2004. It used 1.5"x3.5" (2x4) lumber from Home Depot which I sealed with a polyurethane varnish.
I used NEMA 23, 1/4" adjustable hand router, 30V 200W supply and 100W current chopping stepper drivers from China for $50 each.
All was run on a parallel port of an old 286 PC saved from landfill, running DOS 6.22 and TurboCNC sw. I wrote my own gcode by hand to cut my kitchen cabinet doors.
After I was done with it, I sold it for $750. It costed me around $300 to build it.
Great project and video! This is so interesting, thanks so much for sharing with us!!!! Oh yes,,, subbed! W.
Great video. Thank you!
Excellent! Inspirational!
I have the same concern regarding adding a laser...But so tempting! Subscribed!
Richtig cool diese CNC - du müsstest eine kleine Projekt Serie machen, in der du, eine 2.0 CNC Kitchen CNC baust - mit deinen Erkenntnissen aus der Vergangenheit. :-)
Huh, I never thought to use drawer slides for the moving axes of the cnc. I might actually try this since I have a bunch of drawer slides like these and plenty of leftover plywood from other projects =)
Looks awesome!
Great video. Perhaps I will build a cnc in the future as well. Your project showed a good starting point and gave good advices how it can be done in a cheap and easy way. Keep going on. 👍
Good project and excellent explain.
Keep up the good work
Wow thats Awesome!
That Z axis was something I've never thought about. smort :)
Well done nice project.
Nice project dude !
Very informative thank you have subscribed and looking forward to your next issue.
Well done !
Thank you very much ... very nice work 👍
Excellent video
"...wooden stand-offs, which I thought were temporary at first, but in the end, worked out pretty well."
Every project of mine ever has had at least two cases of this exactly. lol
It looks like a very interesting project 🙂
woow nice project
Very creative!
Nicely done. Getting started is always the biggest difficulty.
I learnt over the years that JUST starting is the key. If you always hesitate you'll get nowhere in the end.
@@CNCKitchen Exactly. How do you eat an elephant?
Piece by piece... :)
@@pjak2000 1. Buy a large fridge.
2. Cut the beast into small pieces.
3. Put these pieces into the fridge.
4. Eat a few pieces every day.
Very good project
Love the low tech to achieve high tech results
Wow! Congrats! I like your build. As others have already pointed out it is inspirational. ::D
I like how the gantry moves for the z axis
Nice one buddy I am learning to build my own cnc just collecting parts
I was looking at drawer slides at the hardware store yesterday and contemplated this same idea! I didnt think it would work, touche'
Nice and informative
great idea!
The drawer slides are an interesting idea, never thought of that! I'm always amazed how cheap you can build these while still getting good results. My first CNC Router was also built from plywood parts, although I used ACME leadscrews and SBR16 linear rails. Overall way more expensive, I paid around 500€ for the whole machine including electronics, motors and spindle. It did a great job though!
After a while I machined aluminium parts for a new Router, this time with a VFD Spindle, full aluminium construction and ball screws. Only thing I'd change would be using hybrid steppers or Servo motors, at least for the Y motors (which move the whole gantry). The steppers reach their limits fairly quickly there at around 3000mm/min.
The speed limitation might be due to the drivers or the voltage. I went from ~4m/min on 24V to ~7.5m/min at 48V. Also, my DM556 drivers reach a lot more rpm than my TB6600 drivers
It’s very nice. I like it.
This is amazing! :O
What I think of this project?! Absolutely amazing is what I think! I've been feeling so much like going into CNC after year and half on 3D printing. Let's see if that happens by Christmas! Cheers Stefan!
I think you did a great on your build for your first cnc. Most people just dream about doing it (like me).
I used those springy aluminum axle couplers, but I noticed they bounce during fast moves. I ended up using fuel line (with wire twisted to hold them tight). I made a video on my channel.
If you want good quality stepper motors for little or no money, find a photocopier shop in your area. They are constantly discarding obsolete copiers and very likely would be happy to let you take a junker for free or a small fee. The document feeders (The unit that feeds stacks of paper one at a time to be copied) usually have 2 or 3 NEMA 23 steppers in there, the body has more running various other drives.
Ich habe mir auch eine CNC fräse gebaut ;D Es ist echt krass das du das mit so wenig geld geschafft hast solche guten Ergebnisse zu erhalten
Interesting, affordable and useful ccn DIY project. I would like to built one.
That is cool you make your own cnc
Good one!!
Great Awesome job
