In this video I’m going mill a printed circuit board. Something that I wanted to try for quite some time now. It’s milling a PCB. And yes, it’s Windows only.
Parts for making your own CNC machine.

Building a DIY CNC metal lathe with CNC control using Mach 3. Using steel, aluminum, bolts, nuts, and some parts from Amazon i created a 10 inch x 24 inch CNC metal lathe. Using a somewhat on the fly design of a metal lathe with a CNC controller. This video goes over the lathe build and there is a separate video (offered at the end and during the video) for the CNC drive that also covers a recap of the design of the lathe. I also thought it would be a good idea to hold a piece of aluminum I was sanding with a flap disc… It wasn’t a good idea, but a painful lesson as I almost cut off my left thumb.
NOTE: I have updated the head stock and cross slide and tool post to make it more rigid. See that new video update here: https://youtu.be/sBfbCSxcs3I
After testing and using the head stock as designed in this video the chatter is too high due to the overhang and vertical height versus rigidity of the thin steel on the rectangular tube I used for it. Look for the video here in a few weeks or subscribe and turn on notifications for an alert when it posts. I will also be releasing concentric readings and calibrate the z axis in an upcoming video as I work on fine tuning and completing setup.
Please like and subscribe. And if there is something you didn’t like please let me know and when I fix it I will thank you in my next video. This is one of my first videos and I am still learning. Thank you for watching.

Folks loved the first DIY CNC Machine (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKmzlMvxC7I) – now let’s build one bigger and better!
Industry grade linear rails combined with a ground ball screw and a TinyG controlled should give us a more rigid and precise machine!
We’re going to use two pneumatic cylinders and a pneumatic engraving pen to see if we can use this machine to offload some of our engraving requirements from our Tormach PCNC 1100!

In Part 1, we set up the Arduino & GRBL shield. Now, let’s use inexpensive linear motion hardware (links below!) to assemble the bearings, rods and steppers into a functional CNC machine!
