I don't know the Bambi, but the other link points to much larger and nosier ones. I mean, mine is only 6 litres and is basically the same, even the looks, as this one from HBM. Mine is really quiet,...

For a long time I wanted an air compressor but never really could make up my mind about buying one. Mainly because I was afraid that it generates too much noise. But in the end, I decided that I...

This thread had over 100k views, and considering that, amazingly few comments, so it is sort of a monologue, but because of the fairly high interest, I will continue.

The recent updates of my...

It's been a while since I posted any updates regarding this project, I was simply busy with some other activities, some hobby related some not, so I had no time to post anything.

But now it's time...

This is my solution:

It is a separate 3D printed tool holder, and in my case it takes any sort of tip up to 6mm shaft diameter. It works very well on any surface,...

Perhaps the site needs some maintenance...? I mean, seriously, nothing lasts forever, but I am pretty sure it is worth fixing, unless the installation is totally wrong. Also, at least here in Sweden,...

It is a Solar Edge system using 305W panels and I have 39 on my roof, facing south one side and west the other. Each panel has an optimizer and my inverter is a 10kW 3-phase inverter also...

The simple answer is no, but it depends on the size of the laser cutter. If you plan to use steppers which require more than 2A 36V then yes, you should go for different drivers, but if not then the...

Hi,
I have recently bought a 3D probe. Originally, I planned to make one, but due to lack of time I decided not to. I realized that regardless how I do it, my own won't be better than any one I can...

The reference is the cutting action, not table movement. You can have a table which moves in both X and Y directions, or only Y or only X, or a moving gantry, where the table is stationary, but the...

The last video of 2021, before popping the Champagne... :toot:

I am finally ready enough to use my lathe, and in fact have even used for more than just testing, in this video I am making parts for...

I am now ready with the actual basic design and first version of my DIY micro lathe. So far it's only for manual drive, and not really did any test run yet, but the machine is ready and usable as a...

I understand exactly what you are saying. I have an Evo N610c which has the same feature. That was my last one which had this easy swapping possibility. Mi later Probook 6470b was still fairly easy...

Of course, I never said you should change anything you are happy with. That was not the subject at all.



Never had any PC destroyed because of an update. I think your conclusion of blaming...

I would make some simple wooden clamps, move everything to the center, lock everything using the wooden clamps, as a friend or a relative to help and that's it. You can test if you can lift one side,...

Just to inform those who are interested, a friend of mine installed this on his brand new machine, he followed the manual to the letter and got it working without any issues. He is not a computer...

Some years ago I created a screen set to be able to probe in a more user friendly way than it was possible with UCCNC. It contained a special probe screen and some macros. This stopped working some...

WoodKnot, just keep on posting pictures and messages. Don't let people kick you in the butt because they feel you are not fine enough for their standards. Let them ride on their high horses, who...

Well, I think this site has always been like that. Some members don't seem to understand the difference between hobby and profession. There is a clear difference between between those who MUST have a...

My experimental project continues. I couldn't wait, I just HAD to do some tests, which I documented yesterday in a short video.

I bought a rotational axis ( 4th axis or A axis call it whatever you like) for my CNC with a 4 jaws chuck. I intend to use this as both a 4th axis on my CNC, or as an independent "poor man's lathe"....

I don't know how long time it takes for you, it depends on many things, but no doubt that it can be done. I did clean sixteen linear bearings, and it took me a while, but the results were well worth...

I would start with removing and cleaning all the nuts and linear bearings. It takes time and patience but worth a try.

Thanks. Anyone interested can use this link below to download the three macros.

Hi everyone. I thought I share this here, even if it might not raise a very high interest.

A few weeks ago I had a discussion on another forum regarding spring loaded engraving vs drag engraving....
