In this video I’ll be building the enclosure around the machine. I have used 3030 aluminium extrusion to construct the frame and 4mm polycarbonate for the doors and front panel. I used a cheaper (but arguably less safe) material for the sides where people are much less likely to be stood if a cutter tries to escape!
I also make some rail extensions and install bellows on the X and Y axes, as well as begin to mount the spindle clamp to Z axis.
In the next episode i’ll be mounting and wiring up the Chinese 3KW ER20 spindle!

DIY CNC Milling machine build.
My objective for this project is to design and build a CNC milling machine without the need for any machining of the parts. Ordinarily, building a mill requires a much bigger mill to get the axis surfaces flat and parallel.
By using aluminium tool plate (which is in theory pre-machined flat) and bolting the critical components rather than welding, it should be possible to avoid any machine work. After all, I’m building a mill because I don’t have one!
Linear rails and ball screws are the cheap Chinese 20mm style that you can find on eBay etc.

I needed a better CNC router so I took to FreeCAD to create a workable design. I sourced up all the parts and welded the frame together. I slapped a 6-axis GRBL build onto an Arduino Mega 2560, piped it into a breadboard and out to some Nema23 steppers. They roll through 3D printed gears to ballscrews that drive the whole mess.
When it was all done, four months had passed. I routered up some softwood, then engraved some acrylic. I wrote an autoleveler into my CNC controller software, then probed and milled a circuit board. Finally, I stumbled through trying to mill 0.25” aluminum with a HSS bit. Darn near didn’t get that done.
In the end, I have a new CNC router that should be more than capable of doing the things I need done for the next few years. I hope you enjoy the video. If you want to look at the CAD file, or try to make one of these, visit this web page:

This vedio talks about how to build fiber laser cutting machine with cypcut control on your own, mainly about who, why and how?
The most interesting part is in the end of the vedio about cypcut, and the last vedio was a comparison between different brands of high power laser cutting machines, guess who win out?

Half sheet cnc router build first run and build image gallery.
Was originally planned to be a cnc plasma hence the small motors but I attached a trim router to see it run about.
Added as much information to the video as I thought necessary but if I missed anything let me know in the comments.
