    Have you finished a cnc machine?

    Was just wondering how many people here had finished at least one cnc machine, and how many haven't.

    Finished 1 then redesigned and made some big changes - so seems like 2!
    Next one in progress - a dedicated desktop (smallish) 3 axis digitizer with a moving table - fixed gantry. Using many recycled components.
    Am thinking of using all of the controller cards and motors eventually in a 6 axis - this is a slippery slope!

    Experience is the BEST Teacher. Is that why it usually arrives in a shower of sparks, flash of light, loud bang, a cloud of smoke, AND -- a BILL to pay? You usually get it -- just after you need it.

    Built at least six at home... plus I worked for years as an automated machine designer for automotive electronics testing and assembly... three maybe four machines per year.

    Lots
    embrace enthusiasm to accomplish the task
