Hello. My name is André, I'm a merchant sailor and naval model maker. I'm loving your channel. I love all types of craft. Congratulations on your project.
Hello from Canada and I built my own cnc about 4 or 5 years ago and a friend and I built a laser cutter since then he moved and took the laser cutter so I found it easier and cheaper to buy from China and I have had great luck with it so far. I sailed years ago and am planning to build a boat also. I will be watching and maybe help you if possible.
Hi thanks dude! Sounds good! I’ve been putting the cnc together in past few days and it seems to come up very well. And if there’s something to make better, I can later use the machine itself to do the parts. It’s also possible to get laser cutter or 3D printer head or anything for this frame.
Go and check insta/Facebook for more updates. 😊
CNC and sailing! Nice!
And boat building and electric sailboat conversion! Great stuff. We share a lot of interests.

nice build vid! a summery with what kind of components you are using would be awsome to see
Thanks! I will do that!
Me too. Wouldike to know list of components
Just found your channel and am amazed of following the project from the scratch episode by episode.
By the way is there a mouse runnig behind your back at 1:50? 🙂
Thanks and welcome!
And yes, there's a mouse! I didn't spot in when editing 😅
hi, do you mind sharing where you purchased the gantry from please
Hi! I asked from several places and the place where I got it eventually was Rollco. I think it’s company that has services in all Nordic countries.
how did you make the rails paraller ? i think you should keep an edge up when you machine it on the large milling machine ?
Hi! Thanks for your question. The rails are not yet fully installed. I will make the final adjustment when the whole thing is assembled. The mounting holes on the frame are machined within 1/100mm accurancy but the holes in the rails have some play in them. Another thing to consider is the seam between the two parts of the rails. They have to be very very precise to make the bearing cartridges to slide over them.
Did anyone see the co-worker that appears under the boat at 1:46 and at 1:50? 😁 Really impressive and inspiring cnc build!!
😍😍 I hadn’t noticed that! 🐭
Hi. The VFD is controlled via RS485 ? Thanks in advance
Hi! There's analog 0-10v (if i remember right... might be 0-5...?) output in the CNC controller and the VFD has similar input. So it's just analog voltage adjustment. 0V = no spinning. 10V = full speed which this case is 20000rpm.
@@ArcticSeaCamel Thanks for the clarification, so you are using the 'standard' way, not the RS485 control
I suppose so! 🤭
I didnt see if you check how coplaner threw out the travel of y axis.. did you do cross wire check to see if your rails and rail support have any twist
Hi. The mounting surfaces and holes for the racks and rails were machined with great accuracy with a huge CNC-mill in a machine shop. So they're absolutely spot on!
I did the final tightening for the rails after the whole gantry was assembled. It is as perfect as i can be! :)
@@ArcticSeaCamel i was not refer to hole accuracy.. coplaner mean that surfaces are level... that are no dips with respect to each other and not cross leged nor twisted from each other
@@772777777777777 Oh, of course. Yes, the machine bed is _very_ stiff. And the mounting surfaces were planed at the same level with that big mill as well. I checked the leveling of the rails with traditional water hose method a while ago after I changed the "legs" from those pallets to some plywood pieces and before I made any calibration. It was as accurate as i could see from that. And of course the bed itself is planed with the machine itself.
What kind of accuracy and repeatability can you attain with this rack and pinion setup?
Hi. The rack and pinion should be plenty accurate for my application. With the reduction and strong motors it should be fraction of millimeter. Currently I haven’t yet done the final install so there’s a bit of play on the pinion axel still.
What I’m little uncertain right now is the “power” of those springs I’ve got on the y-axis right now. They might not be strong enough to hold the pinion down at higher speeds. But they can be changed if needed.
There is no issue on quality if you merge two rack gears
Yeah, the machine has been working great. Just need to make sure initially that the gantry is square.
Also you need to be careful when machine is off and motors offline. Then they can be moved with hand and calibration can be messed up for good!
How much did that gantry piece cost? Our cnc is an old MASTERWOOD 316k. You’re inspiring me to upgrade the electronics so I can move away from its current controller which I have to edit G code manually. No post processor exists for it. It’s a CN10 controller.
So tempted to upgrade it to my own electrics. Looking forward to seeing more of these vids!
The gantry aluminum profile was about 400€. I will do a cost breakdown later. The overall price for the work done in the machine shop was several thousands anyway…
@@ArcticSeaCamel far out! That’s a serious bit of Ali. But a CNC is unbelievably useful. I’ve cut many parts out now with this old machine from 1997.
@@sailingkulali Yep. I think so too. I'm probably gonna use it for all kind of thing and maybe creating some side revenue for supporting this project. Thinking of CNC-machined architecture and furniture designs etc.
This aluminum piece was the biggest "affordable" piece I could find. There were bigger available, but their prices went to thousands of euros...
@@ArcticSeaCamel epic. Yeah I’ve been thinking about the same sort of thing. We use the machine quite abit for our business but would love to do things like build furniture or dog houses haha
@@sailingkulali Yeah. And the manufacturing is just the one part of it. Thinking of doing design work and such as well. :)
Hola estimado bendiciones por favor me podrías compartir la instalación del tablero eléctrico de tu cnc router
Hi! Unfortunately I don’t understand Spanish… something about electrical connections?
what do you mean spring righted rack pinion?
Hi! Thanks for the question!
The rack and pinion are tensioned together with spring to avoid any jumps.
You can see the system in action in later videos!
Hey ...
Can you tell me the module of the rack you use and pinion diameter pls it would be a massive help
Hi! The rack is module 2 and pinion is 12 teeth. :)
Do you have a backlash with your rack & pinion leaner gear system on your cnc axis ? if yes how you solved it ? please
Hi! I tested the backslash initially but I couldn’t measure any with manual tools I had. So I don’t have any compensation for it.
I would imagine that there is some that can be measured in hundredths of millimetres, but it’s so small that with wooden pieces it’s not noticeable.
@@ArcticSeaCamel I plan for milling one by 3 meter for Y axe using rack ponion but Im so worry about NOT getting precise cuts because of the backlash, I got an idea to solve the backlash issue 100% which is to use TWO gear per a leg stretched outward from each(they are on same plate), did You got what I mean ?
@@amrsvn-uf2jk Yes I did! Check out RoboCNC's excellent video about this matter: th-cam.com/video/2SAnDSnotZw/w-d-xo.html
I desided not to do this. It would have been just too complicated for my need. I just kind of took the design ideas from Avid CNC machines.
As mentioned: I haven't had any problems with backslash. The Rack and Pinion I bought were industrial quality and therefore seems to be very precise. In setup like this it's very important to calibrate the machine well and remember to put the power on always before doing anything with the machine (cleaning etc). If power is off, you can pretty easily move the gantry's either end and mess the calibration!
One option I looked into was to use two ballscrews and rotate the the bearing (not the screw) in the gantry. It is complicated to build but precision should be much more reliable!
3 meter ballscrew is too long to rotate, it just start to wobble.
@@ArcticSeaCamel Thank You so much for this Idea, moving the bearing(not the screw) I like this idea, Im abit worry to rely on rack pinion for precision considerations.
@@amrsvn-uf2jk Yeah, there should be solutions to do the trick that way. It's just not that easy. But probably the very best way to do long and very precise machine!
But of course when going to certain precision you'll start to need separate measuring devices, temperature control etc... 😅
Missä koneistit nuo kiskot. Tekisi mieli tehdä itselle samanmoinen kone, mutta olen alkutekijöissä vielä
Tuusulan työkalukoneistus. Kaikenkaikkiaan työstöissä oli iso työ ja maksoi aika paljon. Koko pöytä meni niiden isoon jyrsimeen! Nyt jos tekisin uudestaan, menisin alumiiniprofiileilla.
Kiitoksia. Jatkan asian selvittelyä.
