Hello all,

I’m from East Devon and been dabbling in this and that for years, I work in IT so also need to get out a bit more.

Sorry to ask a question straight off, and if this isn’t the right place let me know.

Am starting to get some parts together to make a simple CNC Mill, by small I mean A4 size cutting area.
Trawled through hundreds of threads, got confused, excited then more confused and am now spending some money on it.

I bought a used System 3 board from DIY CNC and am looking at some cheap stepper motors from eBay, I’m not sure of what voltage I should be looking at or how this is set on the System3 board yet.
Spindle wise I’m thinking TR10x2D Trapezoidal may be overkill and I’ll try some B&Q threaded bar, I’ll make my own Delrin nuts.

The whole project is more experimenting and learning than wanting to produce anything.

Any pointers greatly appreciated.

Regards
Rob
