thats an amazing build and it has given me some good ideas with my much smaller build that I am starting.. I need to get my welder out.. thanks for sharing
How is this accomplished? How much does it cost? How to proceed? I need to find a manual rump and turn it into cnc. But I am interested in having 5 independent axes to mill my ideas. Like a 16 mm diameter piston can be made in a ' single solution? I am waiting for info. Regards.
Awesome job! It seems to me a very strong and rigid machine. No vibrations. But, correct me if I am wrong... You are using only the half of the y-axis. The spindle center axis is on top over the X-axis center line (DIY CNC Mill part 3, time 10:03) but it should be at the front edge of the table so, when table moves forward, the spindle center axis is supposed to be on the rear end of the table. Am I correct? Or I didn't see all the movements. On my opinion, the spindle bracket needs to be longer. Also, if you flipped the X-axis carrier around the axis itself for 180 degrees, you could have some more travel. I am talking about to have one connecting plate sitting on the linear blocks of the Y-axis. Than connect the X-axis linear blocks to the plate. So, the X-axis table is moving all together with the linear guides, ballscrew and the motor. Than there is no need for the extra table plate!
Pecilije Velicanstveni Thank you for your comment. You are right for Y axis on part 3. At that time I did not have extra 2 inches spacers for spindle bracket ready yet. On part 4 after installing the spacer I get full 12 inch Y travel. As for x axis I have plan to put longer table on it. Cheers.
@@advanceair Hi! Nice! Do this. After all, that is one wonderful machine. Excellent job!!! Thank you for your will to share it with us. Maybe something new in the future?
Hi.. Nice work and fantastic machine Can this spindle work in steel.. Milling steel I'm really confused for choice my ATC spindle..what do you think Sir for a spindle for milling steel and Aluminium? My options as following please help; . Bt30 ATC water cool 7.5kw . Bt40 ATC water cool 7.5kw . Bt40 ATC water cool 11kw . Belt drive spindle by AC servo motor 11kw with bt40
Pneumatic system came with spindle, I just connect the air hoses to it. I posted link on full build video for spindle. The guy I got it from is very nice and helpful, he has EBay store.
@@A.T.B.Engineering All the part for cooling system was purchased from Amazon, by "drill machine" do you mean spindle? spindle is from eBay. i have link for it on my Full build video.
Great job on your machine .. I've been playing around for years with a CNC conversion I built. The problem is, the dovetails on those Chinese machines are so pathetic it's nearly impossible to keep them tuned-up & running good for any length of time before your back to lousy finishes & off sized parts.
WOW. Your diy cnc Mill earn its name rightfully ! it's amazing how some people can make a cnc in so little time, making me want to build one like yours at home so i can use a cnc like at works :). Do you plan to release a complete list of parts or better a full model ? Currently, how much have you invested in this cnc ? Where have you buy your ways covers? How you trammed/ leveled it ? Also what is the max rapid feed on this machine, any toolchanger planned? Keep up the video, we like them :)
Thank you for your comment. I will put more part list in next video. For cost I think I am around $4k . Way covers are from Ali express. Yes I have trammed and levelled it. No tool changer plan yet.
@@advanceair An ATC like the one on the Tormach seem like the best bet for your CNC, but its just my opinion. Just 4k $ ?? WOW, i will definitely start looking at making one myself :) Waiting for your next video :D
@@advanceair quiet expensive for a china spindle. How is the runout? Did the chinese seller offer support? 🤔 Im planning my CNC made frome granite at the Moment
Around $4k. If you want it to be rigid, make sure your base is solid and heavy. Don’t use any thine material fill inside any tubing with cement or granite epoxy
@@advanceair Do you want to get some part time works? I see that you have all the tools and machines which can get the job done right and faster. I'm currently having hard time to do the surface mill and welding. If you want to get the part-time works, please let me know, thanks~~~
You take a home workshop to a whole new level Vince. Really amazing work.
Thx Henry. Now with the free time I have I’ll finish this sooner
Dude you should be very proud of what you have built I'm impressed
Wow that thing just eats aluminum! Great job on the design that mill is solid!
Thank you!
thats an amazing build and it has given me some good ideas with my much smaller build that I am starting.. I need to get my welder out..

You built that for a fraction of the price I built mine for, and there is no way I would be game to make those cuts on mine. Really well done.
Thank you. You got mighty machine yourself sir.
@@advanceair thanks, totally different machine and purpose to yours, but I am doing my best.

Really nice work! To avoid back feeding on the Z I used a 10:1 reducer on my build. So far, it has worked really well.
That is a great option!
How did you figure out the weight needed for the headstock? Did you leave an offset to add rigidity?
Awesome job! It seems to me a very strong and rigid machine. No vibrations.

I have a fairly similar spindle, could I make a video of how you did the pneumatic installation

Great job!! Amazing! Which are the maximum dimensions of the workspace? Which are de dimensions of the linear guides on each axe! Thank you so much!
Z travel is 11”. X is 21” and Y is 12”. Thx.
@@advanceair Thanks! You also can tell us where did you buy this Drill machine and all the refrigeration sistem? Please!!

Very nice job. What are the travels?
Got a video of it hogging out some steel?
Thank you. Z 11” X 20” Y 12”
I will cut some steel on next video. Travels are: Z11” X20” Y12”
beautiful machine, my dream
Great build! Is this setup for rigid tapping as well?
Onde comprar, estou precisando de uma urgente
Awesome work and great videos! Maybe share the Fusion file sometime?
Radiator against the wall? Where can all the air go..?
Very very impressive!
Dude that’s awesome. Amazing job!
Thank you!
Awesome build man👍. I want to build one:)

I am sorry, I don't have very organized plans to share i will post more parts list in next video

@@empireages241 i was able to get my raw material very cheap from closing machine shop, that help some with cost.
why so slow? at 6:44 you can see that the aluminium is sticking on your endmill. You Need more Feed!
Your are right on feed, just trying to find capability of the machine at this point i can go 2 time faster than video with no problem.
is the bed aluminum?
No , Steel
Nice work! What spindle are you using?

how much have you spent on the cnc without the spindle have you considered bt30 ?
My spindle is BT30. Without spindle around $2500-$3000
Liked & Subscribed! Thanks for the great video.
What is the the spindle power in kW? Where did you bought it from and the price?
Thank you :-)
5.5 kw. Got it from Ebay for $2500.
I'm making the exact same one you're making, how much did you spent on it? Hope i can make one as rigid as yours~~
Around $4k. If you want it to be rigid, make sure your base is solid and heavy. Don’t use any thine material fill inside any tubing with cement or granite epoxy
@@advanceair Thank you! How long does it took you for all the process? Where did you got the rails?

hi
very good job;
Thank you.
awesome build. more details pls :-)
Thank you. I have 3 more video on this build in my channel
Hi my freind..you are perfect🤘🤘🤘plz tell us what type of stepper motor you used?
Check description
bravo
Tooth load in the last part is a bit high.
Great machine...
I saw that you use CNC-software "MACH4 hobby" ...
how satisfied are you with that ?
Greetings from Hamburg
Thank you. Yes I like Mach4,specially it’s very easy to get support.
Machine sale price sir
very good video..thanks for your time
in the final result it seems that the machine vibrates because there are small distortions
Doing some fine tuning
