Hello, I’m a cnc hobbyist, I currently have a partner 1, series h, with a yuasa 4th (currently running an external control box). I’ve recently purchased a haas t5c (210mm 4th, with a ha5c bolted to the face as a 5th. I joined to ask for insight as to options for integrating the 4th and 5th into the control. It’s currently running a centurion V, i’ve upgraded the motherboard myself, using an adaptech backplane and adaptech pentium 4 sbc with an ide ssd, running dos 6.22.

I was looking thru the list of users and was shocked to see that 3/5th or more of the members have ZERO posts.

I'd like to say WELCOME to all the new members, and to the old members that haven't posted.

I'd also like to extend an offer for you all to chime in and say hullo, mayhaps tell us what you do, how you're involved in CNC etc. We'd love to hear from you!!

Hello there!

I just acquired a what seems to be mostly working D&M 5 mini lathe and happen to have a laptop from yesteryear that should be able to run the machine apparently. I signed up after reading forums on that machine

Good day everyone,

I have just added a Fastcut CNC table to our shop, and have spent the last couple of weeks getting familiar with it by cutting out signage and other smaller projects. It works great, and very impressed with the overall performance. Now that we are comfortable with creating and cutting designs, i intend to start advertising for plasma table cutting work, however i would like an accurate way to estimate the work, to include both the cutting and design time. Does any one know of any programs or spreadsheets that can be used for this?

Thanks

Hello everyone! I'm working on building my first CNC plasma table. Just looking for where to begin. I have a automotive background and love working on cars as well. I run a IMA cnc contour banding machine for my job. Thanks

[sdpark]

Very good point! I'll think about it. Mayhaps something in the logo or title or somewhere insinuating that it's for Professionals and Beginners alike! A place to find answers and get different opinions.

Thanks for the tip

Hi there! I am very new to CNC and currently looking at buying a small partly finished mill to play around with but need some advice on the controller it is supplied with. Where is the best place on here to post my question?

This is the control unit

I run a small business for model engineers in the UK providing super scale detail fittings and castings and looking to start using a CNC mill for small repetitive jobs and really just to learn more about it.

Thanks!
Adam

Hello, I'm totally new at everything related to CNC, laser engraving, and (unfortunately) coding. I'm mostly a hobbyist, and I bought myself a surprisingly nice little machine to do CNC milling and laser engraving on a small platform and I'm having fun with it as I learn. so far I've etched some designs onto a small range of materials (unfortunately the actual CNC functions are beyond me right now, but the laser is useful) but I'm hitting that point where I have to reach out for help.

My ultimate goal with this machine is to use the laser engraver to make some neat gifts for people (or even sell some things and earn a little extra cash), and see where things go from there if I'm able to pick things up without much difficulty. I'll be making a thread pretty soon with more information about my machine and what I'm trying to get it to do. Thanks and I look forward to seeing what I can learn!

Step 1. Stay away from all sales men
step 2 . Find the post processor first
step 3. Shop intelligently (search for 6 -8 months first)

never buy a used Cnc that is not under power and cannot be seen reference home.
