Schone machine Fred. Toch heel wat robuuster dan mijn lowrider 3. Zeer benieuwd naar vervolg. 🙂

[@amirmetin]

hi nice work! can you share your plans i want to build a similar machine please

[@RJCLN]

This is amazing!

[@bukunmioyedapo45]

Why two spindles?. Also why drill bits, won’t an up cut bit do the same action a drill would?.

[@fredraket]

I still have to learn all that, but I don't mind having an extra mini spindle. I don't sacrifice that much space and I can also put a V router in there. is going to come in handy somehow

[@bukunmioyedapo45]

@@fredraket essentially a two head, that can replace an ATC to a decent degree, not bad at all, just use offsets when you program your gcodes.

what's the point of the washers between the rail and extrusion?

[@fredraket]

i used blind rivet nuts these were sticking out a little and to enlarge the support surface a little I put a washer between the hgr rail

[@overtinker.projects]

Impressive! Looks like a lot of work

as @henkrijckaert would say dat was meer werk als verwacht 😅☕
