Hi all,

Im starting up a CNC project from scratch with a bunch of old used parts I got. I have some help back home but I think this place looks like a good place to share knowledge as well.

My goals is to learn basic CNC and machining. The project goal is to finish a working CNC, not too big that are able to mill in to aluminum blocks. I dont have very much of spare time but some evenings every week is planned in to this.

Other related hobbies:
Flying RC stuff, mostly multirotors and FPV.
EV, electrical bikes.

Cheers:loyal:
