Finished builds picture menu

[routercnc]

As suggested in another thread, here is a starter thread showing a collection of finished DIY router builds from members of this forum. If Lee is OK with this (could it be a sticky?), my suggestions for rules are:

• Pictures / video of the finished machine only (no build progress)
• Specification of the machine
• Hyperlink to your build log (if there was one)
• Materials you machine with it
• Maybe some comments on how it runs, what you might change next time etc.

No follow-on comment replies or the usual thread discussion, just the single post. Here is mine to kick things off. Feel free to add yours after it . . .

CNC router MK3:






Footprint approx: 1200x700mm
Cutting area approx: 800x500mm
Z travel approx: 150mm
Linear movement: X=16mm supported rail, Y=Hiwin 20 square, Z=Hiwin 15 square
Transmission: 1:1 ball screws 1605
Motors: X,Y,A = Nema23 3Nm at 72V (DIY linear PSU), Z = Nema23 1.8Nm at 72V, all DQ860MA analogue drives
Breakout board: DB25 (Free simple board which came with the drives - OK so far . . .)
Spindle: 1.5 kW watercooled spindle with Huanyang vfd/inverter
Frame- 80x80 heavy gauge aluminium profile, bolted
Gantry- 80x80 heavy gauge aluminium profile, bolted, plus aluminium box section sides, bolted

Build log: http://www.mycncuk.com/threads/6988-routercnc_MK3
Machines: liteply, wood, and occasional aluminium

Notes:
1. Works very well for intended purpose (wood mostly).

2. Would go with 1610 ballscrews on X and Y next time, most likely digital drives, plus at least 2.2 kW spindle to allow tools up to 12mm.
