Unfortunately I don’t have usable Cad drawing for this machine. Maybe next one
What kind of steel you got for the frame?
@@StudioP3D cold rolled steel
Where do you get the steel plates and frames? from i have 1600 nema stepper motors i got off ebay with controller drives for 4 axis. and a lincoln VR-350 welder i got for free. There are linear roller ways and ball screws gallore on automation overstock on sale. thats a big machine for only 4500$ thats. the cnc motors and drive are cheap on ebay. i saw a huge cincinatty hydrotel for 2780$ and its a monster. There's also explox granite DIY lathes and mills also. this would be great for my DIY 2 stroke engine project.
@@TH-camStat I tried and failed hard ,waisting time ,money and materials.
I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
Could you make it , for a reasonable amount ?
Now THIS is a "home made" CNC Mill that is beyond impressive. I can't believe you fit all this in under $5K, bravo sir!
Thank you
And all you need to build milling machine is a milling machine.
ToT has trained you well in the art of metal cutting by hand. Awesome job sir!
Brian J
And how to mix spices to make metal milling work correctly!
What an impressive build! I can’t believe how awesome it turned out!
Great job on the CNC build and I love the structural methodology you used. When I 1st saw your video image, I had to take a double take, on how similar your build is to the one I built, right down to the doors and handles :). Upon watching the whole video, your is much more robust, very impressed. Thanks for sharing.
Wow an excellent machine at such a low cost! where do you get the steel plates from?
No other word can describe this build... GENIUS !!!!
Respect, respect and respect again. Incredible job. Thank you for showing us.
Where do you get the steel plate from???
Clean, Organized and skilled workmanship! Excellent DIY CNC mill video!!
OMG!!! I love the bandaid move!
Outstanding, she’s absolutely beautiful!!!
Great job!! Incredible job !!!!! I envy you because you have enough time to build a high precision machine like this !!! My sincere respect!!!!
Is the best CNC home made mill i ever seen !!! Congratulations AMIGO !! Felicidades por tu proyecto !!
I loved it!!! Great video!!! I incredibly enjoyed watching you build this.
What a treat this was. Great work! The craftmanship the ingenuity the humor, simply fantastic!
Now the Enclosure needs an acrylic roof and some magnets so the Doors will snap together and in place when closing :)
Awesome build!
Not Acrylic.....
it's polycarbonete sheet .....
Thanks for sharing your impeccable skills. Your video spoke volumes!!
Well done Sir! Thank you for taking the time to share and inspire others as well. I'm finding it distressingly rare for people to have a long range plan like yours and follow through with the build. Very few of us left perhaps(?) I hope not. Thank you again.
Thank you!
[Epic] build..... i want one, or two, yesterday
Wow Vince--that is amazing craftsmanship! Good for you! That must have taken a long time to build based on the care and precision you exhibit.
pense em um trabalho sensacional meus parabéns ficou. ótimo.
What a great video ended up watching the entire thing in one go great machine really good looking Project thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it Peter
Amazing, great work! I hope to one day do a build like this! Inspiring!
Soon as I buy a mill, I can make a mill.
Very nice. Thought mine was heavy duty, but yours is another level. Although to be fair mine is a router, yours is a mill.
Indeed
What a lot of work! Great job and thanks for the video.
Absolutely amazing! I've designed one myself, and it's nearly identical to yours. I'm not kidding... I have the 3d CAD file predated to prove it! No worries... No one but myself had ever seen my design. It's just crazy how much you and I think alike.
28:02 - That is some serious human-machine lovin right there :D
This is next level - I have some competition!
essa fresadora ficou ótima muito bom mesmo, meus parabéns.
Amazing build. I'm so envious! Great work!
This is a work of art!
That spindle looks sweet, have you tried it at lower speeds, like how does it do drilling a 3/8 in steel? Thanks!
I am doing some testing on more cutting and drilling. Will post video soon. Thx for comment
Scotty? Give us some more speed! G’dammit that’s all we’ve got captain!
MORE SPEED SCOTTY!
The spindle is sweet, but 2 or 3 grand. Just to start. Considering how much mills cost...i guess you could make it exactly how you want it.
@@robertraderjr6714 2 or 3 grand just for the spindle? Probably more like around €1000 and that's including the spindle head, spindle motor, and the entire Z-axis assembly. You can get multi-KW spindle motors from China pretty cheaply these days, and the same goes for all the parts needed to make and power each axis.
I have run it as low as 1200Rpm for 1/4 drill
That´s the right way, to build a own CNC maschine ! Greeting from Germany
Wow, great build. Well done! Thanks for sharing
Cool, very cool.
Hi from Russia=)
Достойная сборка!!!!
Un progetto ECCEZIONALE!!!!! Bravissimo!
I am a Swedish CNC technician. So fun to see how you build. It's noticeable that you know exactly what you're doing!
Thank you.
This is infinitely impressive!
[17:40] Somebody took kung fu lessons from This Old Tony. Love it. Great video.
agree - that's some outlandish martial art skills that would make Mr. Spock look bleak
It's just fantastic! I call this - capital construction in the machine tool industry for centuries! How nice it was to be inspired by your video - I was given the energy of measured and meaningful steps in the process. Plus a great sense of humor! Good luck! Konstantin, Ukraine
it's gorgeous !!! a work of art !
It's gorgeous !!!
You could probably make a bit of side ca$h $elling plans for that machine...
I know you already replied to someone on this thread that you didn't bother with extremely detailed prints/files, but if you went back and did that, you'd probably have half a dozen, to a dozen cu$tomer$ , judging solely from the interest shown in this video and it's thread alone...
The home machinists paradox: you need to have a CNC to make a CNC... :D
I watched the whole thing, twice. lol. Good work, looks like it runs smooth. I saw that spindle and first thought was that it wasn't cheap - didn't disappoint. Keep up the good work, time to go watch the other videos now!
diy_garage_tx Thank you. Spindle been great, glad I spend some $ on it.
Just brilliant!
Although you managed to build it on your own and save a ton of cash, it shows, to me anyway, the engineering goes into the TOP end machines!
it seems to me that you know what you're doing
37:14 looks more like part pull up.not crash it was workholding problem xD
Not gonna lie, this video gave me hope that I could build my own cnc machine as well. Thank you for the post. I really like how you did it! Very impressed!
Go for it!
excelente trabajo, pense que por la estructura vibraria pero quedo muy bien te felicito.
I know it's a sin, but damn I'm envious!!
I must confess, I was also lusting after another man's CNC milling machine !!!
I'm soooo ashamed !!!
Maybe if we pray hard enough, Jesus will give us such beautiful milling machines too !!!!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
NICE! love watching that build. awesome.
Un artista , GRANDE , Gracias por compartir , tus conocimientos , de mecanizado , admiro tu sencillez , viendo todo lo que sabes de condiciones de corte , y puesta a punto de maquinas , mucho control , sabes lo que quieres , lo complicado , lo haces sencillo, ese don solo lo poseen unos pocos, muy GRANDE
Video about: "how to make a cnc milling machine if you have a cnc milling machine factory in your garage"
Exactly
So you needed a mill to make a mill, lol
absolutely..lol
great skill set, awesome to watch, thanks!
IMPRESSIVE DOING THIS WITH WHAT YOU HAVE!
THANK YOU!
YOU HAVE GREAT SKILLS!
Awesome! Best DYI cnc I've ever seen on the internet.
Thank you !
fantastico trabajo,visto todo sin parar,muchas gracias por los videos
The first video i see from an REAL vibrations free Home made CNC... NIce !!
thank you so much for your masterpiece. well done
Beautiful work! Fine job! Congrats buddy
Ok. I swear I'm gonna let you build one for me. LOL! Truly fantastic work.
Ein echtes Meisterwerk! Das ist wirklich eine wunderbare Maschine 👍
This is pretty amazing. I think the counterweight is genius for the Z travel. Bravo Vince
Thank you
Me parece muy interesante el video y debe salir muy económico hoy en día la precisión la da una maquina CNC
Excellent skills man, Go on show off it's your time now....well done...gona give mine a go soon Thanks for Vid
Parabéns pelo trabalho! Seu vídeo me inspira, gostaria de no futuro fazer um projeto parecido.
great build wonderful work, many thx for sharing your knowledge with us
And a great Sense of humor.
Hugs from Brazil
No hugs during this pandemic.. cara
Great brother your work is really praiseworthy,,
Admirable work from design to finishing! Accuracy/Precision are professionally ensured. High quality materials. Probably aviation industry high standards compliant. It's the best built CNC machine around! It deserves its price certainly. A true jewel. Thank you for the entertainment. As instructive as entertaining btw.
Thank you.
Not to discredit this guy's awesome work, but so say it's ultra high standard and the best one around is exaggerated. It lacks the mass needed for damping which a professional (CNC) mill has, this mill probably weighs several hundred kilo while you want something of at least 800-100 kg, preferably even more. Also, it would have been much better to make it out of epoxy granite or UHPC instead of a welded steel frame, not just because using either epoxy granite or UHPC is a great way to add a lot of weight to it for damping but especially because they're very suitable materials due to their dampening characteristics. But most of the reason you don't want to make it from a heavy welded steel frame is because unless you stress relieve said frame it's going to have substantial stresses from the welding which will negatively affect its accuracy and is bound to warp once pressure is applied to it (which is precisely what happens during use).
All in all it's a great build and very impressive, don't get me wrong! And it will definitely be able to go through aluminium and even steel with plenty of ease, at decent accuracy too. Just wanted to point out important facts and details.
Outstanding Sir! Thank you!
Great Project, congratulations!
Im so admirative seeing this wonderfull job!
Great Project. awesome cnc mill. thanks for sharing.
Amazing! You would think getting a good sturdy mill then fixing and retrofitting it would be the way to go . But building the base, saddle, and Z column and the rest is awesome! 500 hours and 4500 dollars? Not sure what way I would go! Labor of love is always nice when you have the time though.
Outstanding skill. Loved it.
Very cool build! You can put 2 dowel pins into the table so you can tram in the grinding vise faster.
I will do that.
Duży nakład pracy, ale efekt zapiera dech w piersiach wspaniała maszyn istne cacko gratuluję wykonania 👍😃.
Vince You are awesome. Very creative.
Impresionante maquina, todo un ingenio
nice, very nice. In the late 70's I worked at a place that built automated welding machinery for the automotive industry, All relay technology before computers. We machined parts the old fashion way like this with over engineering to last for ever. tolerances .005 now .tenth of a thousand. Good to see someone still has those skills
Thank you
Вау ! Уважаемый ! Ты просто ранишь воображение !!!! Это эмоции Колоссальная робота Вот что значит: МУЖИК задумал - МУЖИК -воплотил Мои наилучшие пожелания Творческих успехов и свершений !
