    Finally finished my first machine. I built jgro's machine with a few mods and it works perfectly.I used the Hobby CNC kit along with Master5 (Celeron 366MHZ). In total the machine took about 4 months with access to a woodworking shop occasionally. My second machine will be a small mill probably from JCKleinbauer.

    Finished Taig Mill and it is used regularly, also have router table but I don't think it will ever really be finished. I keep coming up with changes although it is in use.

    Cool "is it done yet"

    As most people say its never finished but finding time to implement the
    changes/developments a'int easy and imho most people move onto mk2
    cos you don't want to dis-assemble mk1
    by the way can we do a digi-photo forum as most of my digi pics look s**t?

    Don't know if you are ever really finished, I am cutting out parts now rather than fiddling with the machine, so I caould say I am finished.

    Going to change one of my all threads to a larger size so maybe I am not finished after all !!!!

    Hey Dag-50,

    I have been over to see your machines on the Italian site. I think you have some of the nicest looking machines I have ever seen. They look very "professional". They all look over-built which is how I would make mine (if I had the courage).

    Do you have an engineering background?

    If you don't mind me asking, where in Italy do you live?

    Forza Italia!

    Carlo

    Hello Carl,
    I do not have no study of engineering, the CNC I only realize to them for hobby and I try of help the friends of the forum who find themselves in difficulty in the constructions.
    At the moment as job I make the electrician but in past I have made the mechanical fitter (stampista) for 20 years. Tank you of compliments and the mail.
    If I can help in some way to know
    I live of Milan.
    beest regard Dario

    P.S. sorry for mi bad inglisc

    Ciao Dario,

    Io spesso visito L'Italia durante l'estate. Magari uno di quest'anni ti posso visitare? Mi piacerebbe molto vedere le tue creazzioni in prima persona. Che ne pensi?

    A presto,

    Carlo

    Certamente Carlo, basta un semplice avviso e ti attenderò.
    Vedo che conosci l'italiano e ne approfitto, io con l'inglese vado poco d' accordo, per mè è un po ostico da apprendere alla mia età.
    ciao arrivederci allora Dario

    Ciao Carlo,
    sono contento di rivederti in linea, ti mostro una ultima interfaccia che sto provando, è la solita interfaccia parallela ma con la possibilità di usare la cnc anche senza alcun pc collegato, è solo un prototipo ma sto pensando di poterla espandere verso un lettore di posizione a dysplay.
    Ciao Dario

    Hello Carl,
    is content see again to you online, you monster a last interface that I am trying, is the usual interface parallel but with the possibility to use the cnc also without some connected PC, it is only a prototype but I am thinking about being able to expand it towards a reader of position to dysplay.

    ciao Dario,

    Non so se capisco bene come funziona. Cioe', il cnc leggera' un tuo design da una fonte fisica (per esempio un designo a matita o un circuito pre-esistente) e te lo riproducera senza che tu debba comandarlo tramite un programma del tipo CAM? In effetti, questo diventa una fotocopiatrice, no?

    Translation:

    Hi Dario,

    I'm not sure I understand how this works. In other words, your cnc machine will read your design from a physical source (example a drawing or a pre-existing circuit board) and it will cut it without you having to specify toolpaths in a CAM software? Essentially, this becomes a photocopier, correct?

    Ciao Carlo,
    no, è una semplice interfaccia che permette di aver collegato ugualmente la CNC al PC tramite la porta parallela e permette di usare un tastierino per spostare gli assi anche con la funzione di rapido, a computer fermo potendo effettuare delle lavorazioni veloci che necessitano di più tempo per la programmazione del G-ode, che per la realizzazione del particolare.
    ciao Dario

    Hello Carl, not, is a simple interface that allows to have connected equally the CNC to the PC through the door parallel and allows to use a tastierino in order to move the aces also with the express function, to firm computer being able to carry out of the fast workings that need more time for the programming of G-ode, than for the realization of particular hello the Dario
