- In Part 1, we set up the Arduino & GRBL shield. Now, let's use inexpensive linear motion hardware (links below!) to assemble the bearings, rods and steppers into a functional CNC machine!
Products used in the video:
Arduino Uno: amzn.to/1E0gxVU
Linear Bearing Slider: amzn.to/2GYeRWU
GRBL Alternative for Arduino CNC: amzn.to/2IgMH8Y
GRBL Shield: bit.ly/1vJbWY9
24V Power Supply: amzn.to/1BlwmF4
Multi-Meter: amzn.to/1qppo2C or amzn.to/1siEp1C
8MM Linear Rail: ebay.to/14rPWXB
Stepper: ebay.to/1xNEJ02
Timing Pulley: ebay.to/1I25PEN
Timing Belt: ebay.to/1xNxthz
Dial Indicator: amzn.to/1DuvGQC
Indicator with Mag Base: amzn.to/1ABvkba
2-4-6 Blocks: amzn.to/2IgQrHo
In this video, we look at the CAD model of the machine, discuss basic design philosophy, test it's accuracy (amazing results!), then do the final GRBL set up so that we can export CAM G-Code to use on the machine!
We just added a Part 3 with a Z-axis upgrade! Check it out at • DIY Arduino CNC: Z Axi...

I must admit, most of this is still foreign language to me. I'm 74 years old with a high school education. I have become very interested in learning how all this stuff works. I bought an Arduino kit but then I got high centered and have not gone any further. I need to find a place where I can learn and ask questions. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you doing these videos. I only wish I could absorb the information as fast as you talk. I will be going back and re-watching them all. I also need to get the stuff to build some of what you have shown. I got interested because I want to build some sort of CNC woodworking machines. Thanks again and please keep up the great work.
John, Great video! Not only am I interested in virtually 99% of the content of your videos, your enthusiasm is very contagious! Machining, Tormach, CNC, Arduinos, control... I love it all, and your presentation style is perfect for us home shop machinists and tinkerers.
I see 100K in your near future John. Good luck and keep it up!
To those reading this who are new to the NYC CNC Channel; I've been watching John's videos for several years. You owe it to yourself to see where he began in a small apartment in New York City. I suggest that you go back and watch all of his previous videos to really understand how he became what you see in his current videos from Ohio. As a simple home shop kind of guy with many of the same interests as John, I have thoroughly enjoyed watching his growth and learning. In the process I have learned much more than I ever thought possible. But hold on, it's quite a fun ride!
Disclaimer: I have never met or spoken to John personally. I just admire what he's accomplished and demonstrated what is possible.
Your videos are awesome man. A viewer can really follow along and learn as you show and teach your concepts. Your enthusiasm is contagious. Thanks so much for making them. Hats off to you.
I haven't ever in my life scene someone so stoked about CNC machines Great video thank you !
I really like that you put parts and other things as links in the description it is something that will keep me coming back to watch your videos because it can be very helpful. thanks!
i see a lot of passion in your videos , i am sure yo already contribute a lot to Human Kind.
your videos and techniques helped me as inputs for lot of my work.
Thanks a lot
Am building a pen plotter, I already bought the steppers, dude you are my hero, it's a blessing I followed your channel even before I started thinking about building a cnc.

Its really great how you show your thought process and testing your calculations on the machine against the spreadsheet
Been watching you for a while now, I had a really great time watching this episode. I'm still in my noob days of CNC, I'm converting a Sieg X2 for my first CNC machine soon, so this low cost, basic and beginner friendly video really connected with me and why I'm so excited about CNC machines.
I just woke up and watched this with my first brew of the day and even in my John Hurt waking up in Alien state I could follow all of this. Beautifully explained John and your enthusiasm is infectious!
Best tube video I have seen in a long time. Meat, not sizzle.
Starting to plan out how I'm going to build one of these for personal projects. Thanks for the videos!
It's funny you mention COSI because I live in Columbus and can see the COSI building right now through the window at work!
Amazing! You're the best! After watching countless hours of videos on TH-cam about DYI CNC and how to get it to work, I still had some questions, and you cover it all in an easy understandable way! The SW/HW calibration was driving me nuts because I didn't see anything about it! Thank you! And keep it up!
Keep the faith my friend , your doing great work and I appreciate all I'm getting from your videos, Billy
thank you John! your friends from Yachiyo here.. i have been interested in Audrino for years but never broke the ice and bought one. But after this video im doing it! lol
I'm a welder but have a deep interest in building my own machines. This is a great resource! Thank you ver y much for the information you provide!!!
Great video and thanks for your hard work.
I haven't watched such video that including patient and detailed introduction to cnc machines.Thank you!
This is the first video i watch in your series, but gosh - You are my new hero, for explaining in an easy way... I will keep track of you in the future..... THX a lot..
I will, for sure! :-D
Watched the whole thing, and it did not feel like a 24 minute video. Awesome job!
Well done!! Comprehensive production on this- commentary, links for everything! Very impressive and will definitely help me going forward!
Breath of fresh air that video.....Just simply brilliant! Can't wait to get my kids into this. Hope they'll thank me someday.....Thank you NYC CNC
Cant wait for more videos. Been thinking about making a CNC for a while to learn and to use, after putting hours of research into it over the past few months to make sure I dont make a mistake with my tiny airtight student budget I stumble on to your videos where you answer questions about technical and not so technical aspects, make it on a budget and maintain a level of quality. So pumped for more.
Thank-you for these and I request a quick DIY CNC lathe once this project is complete!!
A massive thank you John for all the hardwork and inspiration. I'm new to DIY CNC and I'm planning to build a CNC Plasma table with a 1200mm x 1200mm work area. These videos have been a huge help and I've just watched this one for the 3rd time, while configuring my Arduino Uno with a CNC Shield V3.0 and 4 Nema 24 motors.
I'm also hoping to document the entire process for other noobs like me who have littled to no experience. Should be a good ride I hope :)
Your enthusiasm is contagious.
Awesome man! I think I will give this one a go! You really help a lot by putting the links for everything right there. Thanks so much for the video!
First CNC DYI video that is right on the mark. THANKS
Thanks a lot!
I am SOO glad that I found your channel.
I want to do some prototyping and was all about to purchase a 3+2 CNC mill for a pretty hefty price as I did not find a decent step through for DIY.
Part 1 and 2 of your vid answered all my questions :)
Cheers and keep on milling!
This was great, I really appreciate the sources where you get this stuff. Also, your enthusiasm is infectious, now I want a CNC mill and I don't know why.
+Mike Davis
i've wanted one for years.
i just need a small lathe and a small mill. and i'll make the rest
+NYC CNC I appreciate the sources too. Sourcing can be a real hassle.
I just love people who help others! Thanks a lot man!!
As always, a brillant video. So great to see some one excited about work like this. I am watching the video as I unpack new tools that came in the post that I need to continue building my own CNC machine.
It was your video on Stepper motors that got me started on building my own CNC.
I alway love seeing the email that there is another NYC CNC video to watch.
rewatching this series of vids now that i finally built my first cnc machine. you are the reason im here today well you and this old tony
You should ask him on a date
one of the coolest arduino projects i've seen. Actually doing something with it that I can't do with discreet electronics.
one of the best channels i came across in a long time.
I couldn't count the number of times I said to myself (out loud), "This is awesome. This is sooo awesome." Thank you AGAIN for posting a continuation video on this subject. Thanks for walking through the g-code as well. That cleared up so many questions I had. I'm going to check out your site right now. I feel like I just have to buy something from you or if you have a donation arrangement, send you something so you can continue these projects. You've done such an excellent job providing content and helping me learn it's the least I can do!
NYC CNC Hi John, thanks again for always replying! I really wish I could make it to the open house. I'm in Michigan, North of Detroit and only but about 5 hours away. Since I can't make it though due to scheduling to the open house, I'd like to maybe help out in some way. I'll shoot you an email with what I had in mind. :)
You rock dude. I loved the insight on the GCode.
Finishing up my CNC mill now. It's 1,50 X 1,20 meters.
Amazingly simple yet powerful machine to enter I'm to the world of CNC machining .
love the simplicity of that belt tensioner
Whoa! I used to volunteer at the old COSI! I remember that very machine!!!! So awesome!
This is a great video, thanks for all the hard work that you've done and for inspiring us to do envision great things with videos like this one and many others.
great stuff,I've enjoyed watching your videos from the very first day i saw them,keep up the good work bro
I'm building something similar in my mechanical engineering class (as a additional project) but I'm so into this kind of stuff, that I'm definetly going to build another CNC Machine at home.
Thanks John. I will look for them in the future. Keep your excellent posting.
If there is one video out there that can convince someone that it is not hard to build a cnc for hobby use, it is this one. I like the fact that the cost of the individual parts is spelled out - as well as the limitations one has with these parts.
first of all. I would like to thank you for sharing this .it's my favourite learning. but I'm a taxi driver. no time to do it myself. but still learning about this lesson.
Excellent series John! Keep up the great work.
man i have to say it, that was a pretty good video, what you just did will inspire other like me to change this world, I also worked with KUKAs , Chirones, Pumas, and my favorite, trumpf laser, few years ago and I know what it feels to work with those machines or just watch them work and then build something like that.
good job man
This is a brilliant idea for a Laser Diode Engraving Machine. Thank you very much
This was a fantastic video, really shows how to setup and build a CNC. Really cool!
Love It Man!......Clear Cut & Concise!
I work as a software engineer, but mechatronics has always fascinated me. I started hobby electronics a while back, now I'm working on stepper motors. I just took apart my old printer and salvaged quite a bit of hardware :) I'm going to create a candy machine and use the printer / scanner body :D
I love it, that's definitely something I'm going to build myself when I have the time.
Thank you so much. This video was the missing link for me in my DIY CNC. So many other designs are clunky and error prone. This is what I have been looking for. I'm going to expand into a Z axis. I look forward to seeing what you cobble together too.
i liked it before watching it because everyone deserves credit for hard work reguardless if built upon other work...good job...watching now!
This would make for a perfect acryllic laser pattern cutter. Love your channelJohn.
What a great video! I'm just getting into CAD/CAM and this is a really great project. I'm only hoping I can do this on a Mac as I don't have a PC. Looking forward to more of this great stuff.
Thanks for showing the calibration, excel spreadsheet, etc.!
That is a great project! I retired a year ago after 40 years with GE as a Tool and Die Maker. I am getting started with Arduino and plan to use them for projects in my work shop. That machine you built may be on my list of things to work on. Keep up the good work and thanks for the video!
Amazing. Keep up the good work, it looks great so far!
Your awesome bud, thanks for sharing the knowledge! Your excitement is brilliant!!
cool stuff, I working on a CNC welding machine (3 axle) this is how I thought it should run, in the coming weeks I want to build a little demo version. Great inspiring video's
great stuff! love your enthusiasm and passion for what you're doing!
COSI! What a great institution. Definitely inspired me as well.
a common fix for the racking is to drive that axis on both side of the gantry, either with two stepper or a single stepper and a drive shaft at each end
This is a really interesting build. Please keep them coming!
This is fantastic!! Can't wait to start on this! Great videos!
Pretty cool setup John. I've been looking for an inexpensive rig to use to learn the basics of CNC machining with and this might be it.
Thanks for sharing.
Tommy
thank you
your videos just made me interest in CNC machinery
respect from algeria
wow, what a great project! very precise
Dude, you are a hero of american manufacturing. Keep it up!
Man you have no idea. I was setting up to buy ballscrews, going to use timing belts now. Thanks for the save!
Awesome stuff. Cant wait for the larger cutting version.........
sweet demonstration! Steppers are awesome to mess around with!
Looks like a great way to start.
Excellent video, excellent project and a good alternative to go through a DIY CNC......but what I like most is the enthusiasm given in this video presentation.
Nice,
Great video. Worth sharing to a very wide audience.
An awesome work, men!
this CNC machines looks like a pro but in a small version!
That's awesome dude. You are right, we do live in a great age.
More power to you.
Awesome video and project, very nicely explained even for a neophyte like me!
+1pts for your perfect language and joviality!... You've just earned an follower!
you are the coolest engineer on you tube.
Another great video. Thanks John. Can't wait for the z-axis inclusion ;-)
My favorite video yet keep going strong man!
This is awesome! I suggested this for the arduino blog.
NYC CNC Looking forward to it. Do you have an episode 1.5: Building the 2-axis parts? It seemed like a bit of a jump there from making motors turn to measuring accuracy.
Hi John, thanks for the video, it has inspired me to build my own CNC machine with great success!! I mailed you some pics of my build
Great tutorial for beginners... all the basics covered.
Wow! Just wow! Can't wait for more now.
Great Video John!
Fantastic video, very high quality as always and epic content.
We live in exciting times. I look forward to the z axis motion. Thanks
Thanks for the video, looking forward to the rest in he series.
Very cool!! This is what Ive been looking for.
Congratulations you and a great professional!
Great work
Thank you for sharing, I enjoyed every seconds of watching this. :)
This is great! I am currently a mechanical engineering student and when I graduate I want to get into machining too because I feel they go hand to hand in the packaging industry (the area I want to work in). I am looking into purchasing an easy item like this to get introduced to cnc equipment!
I went to COSI also! I saw the same robotic arm there. I also saw several of the 3D printers a few years ago project and built a reprap (or two). We do live in a fantastic age! Thanks!
Thanks for this super helpful walkthrough.
Thumbs up and sub'ed! I am going to build this first before I work on bigger things. This is going to be so fun to play with! Thanks for sharing.
Trippy...I'm so lost when it comes to all of the programming aspect of industry and gadget tech that I am glad you break things down for us dinosaurs, cool video series!
Aloha...Chuck

Yessir, that's the idea I hope with most all of you there machinists, to teach "us ignorants" what a muffler bearing is, he he!
I must admit that I did enjoy being "in the know" at least with what a dial gauge and thousandth of an inch was :D
I just created a CNC (learning) playlist and this is the first video in it ! :) Yo are so cool, m8.
