New Shop Tool

New Shop Tool

We have started down the road of building a CNC for our shop. Our build will be based on the PrintNC v4 design.


Ordering the steel:

We went with 2x3 tubing for the main frame and 3x3 tubing for the X gantry. The local supplier's cuts were about as square/accurate as a toddler learning to draw.

At least it was cut long so a belt sander can fix it. Positives right?

Lovely...

Time to clean up the metal. Let's see what a bit of time with a steel wheel will do.

Before/After - Progress!
