    Does anybody have STEP files of Joes CNC MODEL 2006
    R-2 machine? I am wanting to re-model it in Native
    Pro/E. Will anyone export their
    Solidworks files of Joes machine to STEP so I can
    read into Pro/E and start modeling. Once complete, I will
    post the Pro/E models for all you Pro/E guys out there!
    Thanks!

    i was looking at the measurements in edrawings for joes2006 cnc are those measurments correct? some of the measurements just dont seem to add up (for example the ribs on the y axis torsion box) i might just be over looking something if so please point it out. thanks

    Use the dwg files id at all possible.

    The e-drawings are more for 3d visualization.

    It might be possible with an engraving bit and shallow slow cuts - what metal is it?

    Default Joe's design questions

    Joe,

    What size router bit was used to cut out the parts for the router? Also did you offset the parts outline by the cutter diameter? Or is this already taken care of in your drawings?

    Bill

    you do a tool offset of one half the tool dia. not the whole dia.

    Hi all,

    Very nice job btw Joe; thank you for your time and trouble.

    These questions will have been discussed else where but as you can imagine trying to find the information in the gazillion posts is a nightmare.

    What I would like to know is; how important is the torsion box that makes the gantry base? Is it absolutely necessary with the two X axis rail arrangement? The reason I ask is I would like to keep the weight down to a minimum on the gantry.

    If some one could point me to the right place for this information or can tell me what the general consensus is I would be very grateful.

    John

    Edit: I should have mentioned by gantry will only be 28” wide.

    Hello everyone. I've been checking out this terrific website on and off for some time now and I've finally decided to start drawing up a machine based on Joe's 2006. (BTW: beautiful work, Joe; I really appreciate what you've done here and your willingness to share it all) I've just now started to look over the SW drawings in eDrawings and there are a few things (alright, Many things!) I don't understand. First off, I'd be happy if someone could explain the "XAxisBearingAdjAssemblySlideBox-1". I think I know what it's for: to adjust one side of the table to be parallel with the gantry(?), but I don't understand how it works. Can someone fill me in?

    Thanks, Gary

    I've been looking around the site for some time now, I've got the solidworks drawing files, and they look great, but is there some kind of a file describing how to build this thing? Some step by step instructions or something like it?

    Thanks!
    Rick

    The assembly manual will help some.

    keeps the gantry of the machine in the correct plane to the axis. and supports the bearing slide.

    What I don't understand, Joe, is in which direction adjustments are made with this assembly. You say it keeps the gantry in the correct plane to the axis. Do you mean that it can be moved up and down (in the Z direction) so that it's parallel with the horizontal axis of the gantry? It looks to me as if it can only be moved in and out (towards and away from the main table, in what I think you're calling the Y axis). Or, can it be moved in both of these directions. Forgive my density.

    Gary
