Show"N"Tell ( Your Machines) / 6 month build

« on: November 03, 2009, 11:06:45 PM »

I purchased an Elumatic CNC for work and was looking for tooling information when I stumbled on to this and other sites for hobbie CNC. I  decided on a table size of X 39" Y 25" Z 4" . I was successfull in the electronics and PC functions working as intended at startup. The Mach3 software was simple to negotiate. I have since added a 4th axis ( rotary table) and the spindle controls. This project was 6 months from start to power on. The best method for learning the operation is to design a project and understand the functions. Early in the process I do have to admit I did have to make some parts more then once.
