Re: My new machine - Guess the make!
Back once again! I’m not a good forum member am I? So sporadic! But I’ve been busy planning my loft conversion.
Anyhow, I thought I’d try a box joint mini project just to get my eye in for when I need to do something proper.
Used the Aspire box creator gadget and with a little jiggery pokerey it works pretty well. Here is my effort. Looking forward to putting it to decent use rather than a sealed mdf box…. Can’t even burn that on my fire!

Re: My new machine - Guess the make!
So, I was looking for a project that didn’t look “too CNC” but mainly used the CNC!…..
So I used the CNC for damn near everything, even when it didn’t warrant it! Christ knows what I’m going to use this for….. CNC bits???

Or you could build a replica Victorian pharmacy (and make a TV series). Very nice work!
Re: My new machine - Guess the make!
Ha! Yes…. It is an apothecary cabinet. Maybe I can store those miniature spirits and medicate myself as necessary.

Excellent work as a usual mucker, nice to see you are exploring what the machine can do. Could always throw a few draws away and turn it into an advent calendar....:triumphant:
Re: My new machine - Guess the make!
Its too clean to be a proper workshop. No dust, no clutter. Great looking CNC machine.
Mine has just arrived yesterday Genmitsu 3018 prover. Will put it together this weekend and see how it goes. Planning on using if fro PCB's and making hands for antique clocks.
Re: My new machine - Guess the make!
I’ve been out of my workshop for the best part of 12 months doing my loft conversion. On the home straight now with a mere couple of months to go, so will be back trying to think of a monster project to furnish the new room.
However, a friend is retiring from Fire Control and people wanted a chopping board retirement gift. So thought I’d just “bang one out”. Didn’t quite turn out like that as I felt like I had to relearn a load of stuff being off the machine for so long! I even cut the plug the same as the pocket and not reversed. That was a £20 oak mistake!
Here’s the video - from a CNC perspective, half way through is that. The first part is just the making of the boards.

Re: My new machine - Guess the make!
Back again with a new project. This one took several months due to some near disasters with the electronics side of things….. had it all gone wrong it would have been a few hundred quid down the drain…. I never knew what a “smart table” was until I saw a Russian and a Chinese guy make one…..

Your bench is a lot tidier than mine. I won't post a photo as i'll probably get arrested for something or other!!
Cheers
