Hi, I'm Gustavo. I'm a system administrator from Uruguay. I've finished building a 4 axis CNC machine using a planetcnc.com chinese clone (please don't kill me), so I need help desperately!! No, just kidding, I'm doing (almost) fine! The process was a very exciting learning experience.My hope is to find answers and help other to find them too. I'm glad to have found you! Thank you!

Hi, I'm a service-technician. My specialization is repairing and upgrading metal cutting CNC machines. Also, I have a handmade (by me) mill at my home lab.

Hi my name is Brent, I've been retired for about 6 months. I'm new to CNC, originally I just wanted to be able to mill custom circuit boards for my electronics hobby, then after a bit of research, I've caught the DIY CNC bug.

Howdy, I'm Gene and teach middle school shop. Right now I am trying to get my CNC machine built for use in class and made the mistake of buying one off a popular online shopping site. [Note: Next time I buy American.] Right now I have a 3020T 4 axis CNC milling machine with a Sunwin controller replacing the original controller that was in pieces due to being air dropped without a parachute out the back of a C-130. At least that is what it looked like. Anyway, the spindle connects to the old controller with a three wire cable. The Sunwin controller uses a four wire connector. The spindle is water cooled and I believe, 1500 watts. In wiring this spindle to the controller, does anyone have any ideas that would be helpful short of starting over with a whole new machine? Thanks in advance, Gene

Hi there, my name is Alexandre,

I've been interested in CNC machines since many years ago and I've even built a couple of them in a very amateur way (the first one was arduino based and wooden made ), after many visits to this forum for gathering information I decided it was time to join in as a member.

Nowadays I work mainly in automation and robotics but I'm still interested on CNCs and I'm repairing an old gravokad for my personal use.

Hello all,
My name is Kolt. I love dabbling in any field that I find an interested in. I have an Associates in Fashion Design (Men's Snowboard apparel), Air Force Vet and currently studying Business Marketing at University of Washington Tacoma. I've done anything from electronics, construction, customer service, etc. We are in the middle of building our own custom house and we just had our first child (5 months ago).

My father was a welder for 30 years and, once I left the military, I began learning the trade from him. Since then, I have purchased my own Lincoln welder, 5x10 welding table, JDsquared tube bender, Hypertherm plasma cutter and, now, a plasma table. I got VERY lucky and found a screaming deal on a 5'x10' Dynatorch XLS and Victor Cutmaster A60. I have never used, or even known anyone that has, a mechanized plasma table. I am looking forward to getting started on this new project but I would, more than likely, be considered a novice.

I look forward to learning much from this site and it's members.

Hi Everyone .
I am from Maldives. I built a cnc hotwire machine. I have a problem that I wish to have help from this community. My machine travels diagonally to the furthest corner of the foam board and start to cut from right to left. This way it slices the objects first and then cuts. Can someone help me to refine my starting point? I am using Inkspace for generating Gcode. I could not train my machine to cut from nearest point to the x0y0.
