Can you use a CHEAP CNC ROUTER for GUITAR BUILDING?

Guns and Guitars

December 29, 2022



I’ve always wanted to see if I can use a cheap small CNC router to do some custom guitar work. The CNC router I chose for this test is the FoxAlien Master Pro, which has rugged all aluminum construction, a 15.7″‘x15.75″ work area (with extension kit coming soon), accepts a Makita router, and comes in at less than $650. For more information, or to make a purchase, check out the links below:

CNC Milling Machine

DIY CNC Milling Machine (Part 10) – Building a DIY Power Supply & CNC Machining the Z motor mount

Seabass Engineering

December 16, 2022



In this episode I use my brother’s CNC router (that he originally built for making guitars) to machine out the Z axis motor mount and I build my own 70 volt DC power supply for the stepper motors…

Transformer: Toroidal 750VA 230v AC – 24 x 24 AC output – wired in series – AirlinkTransformers.com
Vishay GBPC3504-E4/51 Bridge Rectifier
3x 4700μF 100V DC 35mm Capacitors
2x 1K2 5W resistors wired in series to discharge capacitors when mains power removed.

Still to do – Fuse the 48V output from transformer and individual outputs to Stepper Drivers.
_____________________________________
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 aluminum 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.

CNC Milling Machine

DIY CNC Milling Machine Build (Part 14) Building a CNC enclosure with 3030 aluminium extrusion

Seabass Engineering

November 30, 2022



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!
