Picture in granite?

[Vagner.CNC]

Hi Guys!

This is my first post! I have read many ... are fantastic!

I'm from Brazil ...

Watch videos on youtube.com and I fell in love with machines that record photos in granite:

[nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fy7xMITGyy8"]YouTube - ‪CNC G-10 engraves photos into stone‬‏[/nomedia]

[nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQF6VZBXfxE"]YouTube - ‪Galeks CnC stone engraving router‬‏[/nomedia]

Can anyone tell me how I can build the Z axis of these machines?

I'm thinking of building one and put on my machine!

Thanks!

Hello people

Search for almost a half a year for my home made cnc engraving for photo. How to build the bracket for the Z axis?

Hallo Snues,

Leider ich can nicht gut deutche schprache nutzen, so here it is in english ( i can do another 5 languages besides these 2, from usable to extremely good, one of them being serbo-croatian-bosnian-macedonian like : pozdrav Milane, sajt nisi jos uvek zavrsio, sram te bilo!!! ))
I have made several stone engravers just from parts i found in my workshop for the hell of it, i do build at least 5 to 6 cnc machines in a year, i test them till i get tired and most of them i dismantle since i get bored easily.
Back to your problem, i am currently building 2 engravers, 1 vertical mill and some other stuff, so i can take some pictures and post them here for you especially the Z axis since that is the most complicated part in it. I have 2 versions of it and i know for another 2 that i can try to explain for you, also FYI you can find and modify most of the parts for a complete engraver from a single old xerox photocopier.

Gruss,
Tom
