Hi all
I have obtained a cnc machine in the middle of building another existing one.
I thought i would play around with this one before i move on so i can learn a little about it and gain some confidence with setting it up and playing with the electronics.
my current issues with this machine are how do you set the spindle or motor. currently this is what it had (image attached)
I assume I need to get a belt and also a separate piece to hold the shank/router bits
What are these?? and where would i buy them from??
Also I am looking to engrave and cut wood, aluminum and plastics so to do that, would it depend on the rpm?? the current motor on the image is 6500rpm
I need to know what a limit switch is and what it does?
