- Buying, rigging, and trucking a CNC machine can be intimidating. However, doing it yourself will save a lot of money. Come along with me as I buy, rig, and truck my newest CNC machine home.

Some of us at Tormach have been watching your channel for a while, and some have just stumbled on you (why they kept you a secret is a mystery). And even though you deal with machines other than ours, we can't say enough about how important what you do is to this industry! Keep up the great work and keep those old machines running!
Thanks for the comment! I’ve worked on several of your machines at high schools and colleges! Lots of customers start with your machines and I think you have a great product! Excited for your epoxy granite casting machine.
Hey dude, just wanted to say I'm about to get my first mill and you've made it seem way less intimidating. It's a lot to coordinate and there's just way too much on the line to mess up. Thanks so much for making great content! Keep it up!
Positioning the machine so far in front of the trailer axles is real torture for the vehicle's hitch and poses a risk of a serious accident. The center of gravity of the machine should be in front of the axis, but very close, otherwise it only avoids inducing oscillation in the horizontal plane and enhances it in the vertical direction. Don't be lazy and remove the covers if they don't fit. An hour of work is not as expensive as a damaged machine and vehicle.
Yeah there is a video with a little truck on a treadmill and they demonstrate different loads on trailers and their effects.
Use ratcheting binders.
Yes, I moved my own machines. I enjoy doing it heaviest one I’ve moved so far I think is at least 11,000 pounds and I unloaded myself at home.
I am looking for a Haas machine
I live in Fairbanks Alaska
I didn't realize you were in Washington! We are too :)
Yeah get a deck over trailer and set the machine just ahead of the axles, it works so much better.
Totally I wish I had a gooseneck and a diesel! Darn TH-cam just doesn’t pay enough 😂
thanks for the video
I also bought a 2005 vf2 and hauled it about 230 miles, riggers at the auction told me that the machine would fall through the trailer witch was 12,000 lbs and made me sign saying that I know it was not on a air ride trailer, the night before I bought 20-30 cheep pillows from Walmart and stuffed in electrical cabinet to cushion the shock on some electrical parts in cabinet, not sure if it helped but it made it home safe, I was more worried about the battery for memory and having a back up on settings since did not see it work and was disconnecting long before pick up date. So anything is possible without the extra costs. Thanks for you videos love to see more.
Nice job! Thanks for the story!
Who??? .... CNC repair mom? ....:) just joke ...all the best for YOU ....Good Job Man
awesome!
Okay, now everything is loaded up and headed home. Could you show a little about how you got the machine off of the trailer and placed either where you want it or in temporary storage? When dealing with machines that are 4000 pounds and up, ordinary shop equipment will not lift and move these machines. Renting a forklift or telehandler in this weight lifting category even for one day is close to $1000 or more.
So how important is having an air ride trailer, truly. People recommend using them, but as long as the machine is secured correctly I assume it'd be fine. I used a rigger for my VF2 & Minimill, but transported a 4000lb 4x8 CNC router myself. Hauling that thing through the mountains with a 2500 Suburban was slow going, but I got her home.
I’m on the fence about it air ride for used machines. I think it also depends on the roads and the trucker.
The machine preparation is pretty much good sums up but the loading on the trailer doesn't make sense at all, you should always put thr weight close/centered to the axles as possible, you can clearly see the pickup and trailer are enduring hard bad times
How to calibration Axis y or x ?
How are you finding machines at these prices? I can't find any 😢
We sent a Fadal to the scrapyard because we couldn’t find a buyer.
@@pvtimberfaller I'm looking for a good deal lol
Really like this elitist bs 3:15. Such disrespect for working people "not so brigt people". Did you ever worked on these machines? Even guys with more than 30 years in trade do mistakes and machine tables get little damaged. Noone does it on purpose. Elitist bs from machine mover. How to tell me you dont know nothing about this trade without telling me. 🤐
lemme guess... you've made a couple boo-boos on some machine tables over the years 🤣
@@evanokeson Actually, no. I never damaged a table.
@@kigara3906 See, it's not that hard.
