Build and Intro

[swisscheese]

Man its been a while since I've been on here. Time for some pics!
Overall I'm pretty happy with how the machine runs, especially seeing as I made it with zero plans/planning, a big no no on here haha. Haven't had any major problems and once I received the new driver everythings been sweet. Still haven't wired up any limit switches, I'm lazy.

I had the pleasure of meeting swisscheese and his machine on Thursday.
Many Thanks swisscheese, the viewing and rundown of your build was much appreciated. I hope I don't bug you too much into the future.... Although having said that..... have you machined aluminium plate with your machine yet? ;-)
The half-tone furniture you've produced is not done justice by these pictures.... I found them far better in real life.... quite stunning really!
Cheers,
Andy

Hi,

I have done some aluminium work with the machine. I will put a photo up of a gear I cut out when I get the chance.

Here is a video of it cutting alloy. This is when the z axis wasn't fully working so it was being moved by hand.
