Nice for the son that say little not understanding words already, I now that the free time is too little over there,I am just teasing you since I do not have nothing better, about cnc stuff to do,lol!
And please post that Z axis work , since this is the most complicate work for me to do....haha.
Ps I spend two hours today at Airport customs ,grate experience ....

Sorry about no Z axis pics today ;)
Just realised why all my holes for the Z axis rails were wrong. In the cad I got the outline of the holes instead of center of the holes. No wonder it did not work and I had to drill larger holes and use nuts instead of tapped holes.
Realised this is the same problem with my holes for the spindle bracket :(
Really have to remake the Z axis dropplate and make it work soon ;)

Sorry to hear about the misalign holes mistake!

Sorry to hear about the misalign holes mistake!

You know what.. it's actually okey!
Im not even mad about it (I usually am)
I put this down as learning ;)
To bad that it's a part that I can't remake myself but have to get cnc'd
I'm way to bad at marking and drilling holes accurate even if I order flat aluminium hehe

Small ghetto update today!

Made a bracket for my y axis.
Had forgotten to calculate with the adapter plates for the bearings that I made so I had to add a spacer :(

Also my aluminium stock is running low :D
Had to use 2pcs of 4mm thick aluminium for my bracket instead of the planned 10mm. The upside is that I could cut a hole through the first piece for the ballnut bracket to fit. Had planned to pocket into the 10mm piece. Now I didn't have to :)

Also I did a motormount for the Y motor.
Will revisit it sometime later with a file and some different screws ;)

And some pics

Bought a supercheap dti with magnetic base and started checking my ballscrews as Im getting some binding and wobble.
After shimming some bk/bf bearings its much better. Still get some wobble as the screws are not quite straight. Or it might be the end machining...

Im measuring about 0.2-0.4mm of wobble in the different screws. Anything to care about?

Not much done but it feels great to have mounted the spindle :)

Have misplaced a bracket I made for the cablechain.. Will have to make a new one ;)
