First of all I wanted to say you did a great job on your enclosure. Secondly I wanted to thank you for giving away all your files and stuff for free, that’s mighty nice of you! I’m in the process of renovating my shop space and an enclosure is one of the things on the list of upgrades for the future. My current table and also my 4x8 assembly table are all made of aluminum extrusion so I can definitely appreciate its versatility. Thanks for the walkthrough and look out for an email from me in the future when I mess something up 😂.
Very cool - love the enclosure. I have my OneFinity on order and want to build and enclosure as well. What would you say the minimum height for the enclosure would be? I'm thinking about putting it lower and having a standing height workspace on top of it.
Thanks! The height of the machine itself is 17". If you run your vac hose up and over your router like I did the top height of that hose is 21". I would say the absolute minimum would be 24" because it gives you a little room to maintenance etc. 24" seems to be the most common height I've seen for this machine.
Glad you found the video helpful and I hope you enjoy your Onefinity! It's a fun machine. Here's the vaccum switch I use: www.amazon.com/Automatic-Etoolcity-Technology-Overload-Eliminating/dp/B07YK9VBQK/ref=sr_1_3_sspa?crid=1AV6ZTE6FQUD2&keywords=woodworking+vacuum+switch&qid=1636342193&sprefix=woodorking+vacuum%2Caps%2C229&sr=8-3-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyVjNIQ0dYTzJVNkY5JmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNzYzMzQ4MTRPVDM0S1ZONUpLNiZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwNTEyMDM1MjNaR0dIMklUWUVSMSZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=
I love this enclosure! It is the best one I've seen so far. I am considering the Journeyman X-50 and I know I want to build an enclosure, but all the others I've seen so far were plywood and plexiglass. This one by far is my favorite! I love the simplicity of assembly and the visibility it provides. So, thanks for that inspiration. On another note, do you feel the shop vac is adequate for the dust collection? I have a 4" dust collector for my shop and was looking into one of the aftermarket dust boots, but a dedicated shop vac setup would be easier as long as it performs well. Thanks for the video! - Joe
Thanks for the comment! The Ridgid shop vac I use works incredibly well. It will even pull dust out of the air in additional to the wood dust generated right at the cutting bit. I'd recommend putting it on its own switch. It's nice to turn it on separately and vacuum up the table after a job.
Great design! I am working on building my table today. 1F comes at end of the year. Did you purchase the cable extensions at all or just what came with it?
Nice enclosure! Unrelated question: where did you get the clear refrigeration sheathing from? I've thought about using those for a miter saw dust enclosure
11:08 Yes, the air flow into the cabinet is a good thing. In fact if the cabinet is too air tight then your vacuum will underperform because it is starving for air or really trying to draw a vacuum on the whole cabinet. To effectively move chips you need to be moving air at high velocity and volume. SO maybe experiment with an opening in the cabinet to let make up air in. Something on the bottom in the back light be good to keep noise down. You could build a sound trap to cut down on noise escaping the enclosure. I would do something to relieve the strain on those cables. They will eventually fail if you don't. It doesn't take much repetitive movement to break the conductors in those cables. The connections will become intermittent and will drive you nuts trying to troubleshoot them. In place of the hard panels in the back is there a soft, sound-deadening material you could use or apply to the interior of the panels you have. Anything that breaks up those hard, reflective surfaces will help.
Thanks for the tips Bob. The vacuum works well, but I'm thinking my enclosure may be too air tight and I'd hate to burnout my vacuum so I may try some small openings in the bottom back like you mentioned. Thanks for the tip on the cables too I didn't think of that. Probably one of those things that's okay for now but will eventually wear out over time. Do you think a drag chain would be a good solution?

Wow! Your shop is a dream! It's so well organized with all the fun tools. Your white, teal and light wood color scheme really works!
Your wiring system is commendable!
Thanks Deb!
Great looking setup and thank you for sharing the completed enclosure!
I did the same but used PETG to 3D print the brackets. Works great
Awesome, and thanks for the links to what you used!

@@MartinsonManufacturing Cool - thanks, appreciate the response!
Great work! I have one on the way, and can't wait to use many of these ideas! What did you do to make the vacuum come on with the router?
Glad you found the video helpful and I hope you enjoy your Onefinity! It's a fun machine.

@@MartinsonManufacturing Awesome!! Thank you!!
Great build!
Tight, tight! Gonna do mines like this
Well thought out!
Stellar setup. I wonder how much heat is generated from the shop vac.
Thanks man. I've checked on it a few times here and there and it does get pretty warm in there.
Nice video and nice enclosure. Can you share the details and components for your estoppel and other electrical set up? Thanks.
Sorry. Auto correct. Your estop device for shut off. Thanks.
Hi, can you advise the exact size of the waste board mdf pieces that you have affixed in 5 pieces, planning to make a similar waste board. Thanks
Do consider a cable chain for your y-axis wires and maybe an upgrade to a 2.2kw water cooled spindle. All the best.
Thanks for the tips!

@@MartinsonManufacturing Awesome! Thanks for letting me know. That's probably the setup I'll be going with, then.
Thank you for sharing this. I was getting ready to go bananas with sound proofing but maybe I don't have to now.
Glad it was helpful. The MDF makes a huge difference.
Thank for the plans btw
Hiya, thanks very much for that, did you need to get extension cables for the screen? Are they special cables? Appreciate your vid .cheers
I did. Found a few longer ones on Amazon.
First off, great build!!! Quick question, how did you attach the half inch MDF?
Great design! I am working on building my table today. 1F comes at end of the year. Did you purchase the cable extensions at all or just what came with it?
Awesome! You'll enjoy it, it's a fun machine. I just have the cables that came with the machine.
Really nice job !
Thanks man!

I found a big roll of it on Amazon. Can't remember what I typed in, but I'm sure it'll pop up.
Have you measured the amount of noise it makes when cutting material?
what thickness plexiglass/acrylic did you use?
1/4”
You run your router at 2 1/2?
I assume this enclosure cost about what the CNC machine cost?
Pretty much.
Is it the journeyman 48”x32”?
Nope, the woodworker 32”x32”

You, like everyone else I've seen so far, seem to have a marked aversion to "DIMENSIONS". Would be nice if you gave some more.
Outside dimensions of enclosure: (1"x1" frames)
- Width: 49"
- Depth: 51-15/16"
- Height: 31-15/16"
