Would cerakote work? Or too similar to paint?

This is super budget friendly

Great I have weak internet in shop. Thx

I have your plans, and am collecting bits and pieces. I am also going to print the bearing blocks, and then use that as a pattern to cast them in aluminum. But molding and casting will involve a small percentage of shrinking compared to the original. Are there drawing with dimensions for the bearing blocks? I could print it and then make detailed measurements and reverse engineer all the critical dimensions. But it would be a fair amount of work, so I thought I would ask first.

What do you think about Electro galvanizing? Anyone tried?

Nice!

Anyone else have issues with 1/4-20 tap busting through the side of the bearing block? On the real thin side.

What plasma cutter are you using in the video?

The link for the new code to put into IDE is not pulling up the correct page. can you fix the link??

Do you provide the drawings in mm and cm as well?

Good job, it came out well. We shared this video on our homemade tool forum last week 😎

Hey guys! I just got all of my electronics and such. Is there a video for how you wired up this sucker? i'm not very well versed in wiring things from scratch. I dont want to botch this project lol. I'd like to replicate how you have it.

My arduino gets disconnected every time the plasma fires. Just says error 31 on open builds. Can’t seem to figure it out.

I have yet to get the firmware flasher to work on any of my Arduinos. I had to flash it with IDE.

with the torch height capabilities, any future in which this gets outfitted with a Router to cut wood too?

Just purchased the plans. How can long does it take to receive them by mail?

you don't face problems using the Arduino board

Good job .I did built my own CNC plasma cutter using cheap chinese laser cutter frame.

Please use a blade guard on that angle grinder and a face shield. Ive had one break on me and roll off my cheek. I got very lucky lol

Is there a reason you can't just use off-the-shelf 3/8 ID x 4" ABS or aluminum spacers with washers under the head of the bolt and under the nut on the other side of the connection? Or maybe the spacer is 3.90" so the connection can compress just a bit. The stainless water pan from Vevor for $65 works fine - just need to make the X axis 2" longer (40" instead of 38").

Every time my plasma cutter lights to start the cut the arduino disconnects from open builds. Plasma just stays on and doesn’t move. Any idea what could be causing this?

FWIW, when I welded the flat bar to the top of the gantry, along the "front" side, it bent the flat bar down due to shrinkage. In my case, that would have potentially allowed for the gantry bar to sit low towards the front. I had to bend the bar back prior to welding in the angle piece underneath and all was good. I also did paint leaving channels for the bearings to travel

Thanks

Thanks

How does height control work?

I got mine I ordered the 1 1/4 bearings you recommended and I got a 1 1/4 key shaft however it’s too tight to in almost as if it’s gotta be pressed it what am I doing wrong ?

I bought this kit along with the 1 1/4 bearings and 1 1/4 keyed shaft and it’s too tight to go in almost as if it’s gotta be pressed what am I doing wrong ?

Have you any afterthoughts/improvements you would make on the design, such as an alternative drive mechanism instead of the belt system?

I like those end stops, where can I get those, I would like to put those on my cnc router. I booked marked you website so when I'm ready I can build this. Thanks edit : also with the plans are the circuit board plans there, for the one you made near the end of the video. Height controller I believe you said

Donde es el metor

Will the yeswelder cut55 work? Only asking because I already have it.

Cool! 👏👏

I dont think you guys understand how helpful/important this is to the diy community! Thank you guys endlessly for this! I will be buying your plans when I have the space and time to build one!

how about accuracy

That's insane!

Freecad (save as SVG)- open builds cam- open builds sender. In open builds cam you will need to choose your inside and outside sketches and you can only do a 90deg lead in, but it is easy to use and looks like it will work fine (testing tomorrow).

I made my gantry 1" higher and wide enough to slide a 4' sheet through the machine. Finished up the mechanicals today and should have all the wiring run to the steppers tomorrow for the first cut.

What tolerances did you use between bearring and tube

Thanks for the video. Why not have the X motor on top with a stand off for the pulley instead of having it hang low and dragging the cable across everything?? Just wondering. I would have the motor on top, myself.

What company do you work at with what robots? I work at HQ at Yaskawa Inc, Motoman Robotics

i'm currently waiting for my electronics to ship and then i've got everything for assembly! I cant wait!

This is one of the best idea to build! Thanks for it.

This guy is so budget, he can't afford a chop saw!

Is anyone else having an issue with creating the tool path for the Z-Axis file that came with the plans? I've even tried redrawing the plate. When I create the cut path (very carefully following the video) it skips the mounting holes. This process works fine when I creat other simple drawings, It just doesn't want to play nice with the Z-Axis plate.

Great video! Congratulations on your build!

Anyone try MyPlasm for the Cam?

Love the machine and really enjoyed building it. I can't get enough of cutting on this thing and with the THC the corrugated cuts are pretty awesome. Thanks for the build.

uses the machine to make another functional part for the machine

What make of plasma cutter. I that

Great videos give an explanation of what the video is going to be about with an image of final build (or at least a final image) then shows the steps to the get there. Otherwise great video.
