- two big logs ow wood, and some other wood parts
- 4 legs with M12 screw and  long nuts for it.
- 4 castors
- Plywood for top.

CNC - rebuilding

Hi all,

As far as you can see I did not have any drawings to this project. And now it take revenged. I made two real big mistakes, and now I have to disassembly almost everything. Only Y axis left, from previous state.
I have to take longer profiles for Z axis, and change holder for spindle.

Plastic Z (for sale)

Hi,

I realized that I have a lot pieces of plastic, and some leftover parts from CNC. So I decided to build some small Z axis, that will be sold.
Technical parameters:
- supported rails 12 mm with 4 linear bearings
- Tr 10x2 screw with brass nut
- 0,4 Nm motor with direct connection to screw
- spindle holder 43 mm ( for example: KRESS)
- about 95 mm of movement range
It is still not finished as I do not have two ball bearings, that will be used to place screw, and I have to clean it up. But it will be done soon.
