- I couldn’t wait until the New year for the next shop tour video! About six months ago I added a 5’ x 10’ automatic tool changer CNC to my shop! Adding this capability to my shop has allowed me to cut custom cabinetry extremely fast and efficiently, flatten slabs and tabletops, and make custom signs and holiday decorations!
In this video I will walk you through how easy it is to run a program/file on a phantom CNC. Each step is showed to give reference for anyone just starting with a phantom CNC.
If you are interested in getting a phantom CNC, I’ll leave the link right here:

Tell them Nolan sent you 😁

Thanks for the USB tip, very wise.
Thank you! 🙏🏾
How awesome is this. I remember when we just drawing your logo and tool pathing for the first time. Look how far we have come. What a huge accomplishment and great shop. Well done my friend.
Thanks Nick! Wow it’s crazy that, that was this year! We done a lot of stuff this year!
Those turned out so cute. I love watching the CNC in action.
Thank you Mrs. Carol 🙏🏾!
WOW! That is an amazing machine. Love that you made yourself a checklist Nolan. I would need that for myself as well haha. Keep up the amazing work.
Thanks Brent! I really appreciate you checking out my video! 👊🏾
That’s a big new toy! I have a start up list / check list as well. Even made a video just about my list! 😂
Lol 😂 yea I made my list because I know from experience lol what happens when I miss a step. Lol it’s not pretty! Lol 😂
So cool dude. Looks like an awesome unit. Smart to have the check list. I need to make a check list for my laser. And I’m super jealous of the ATC!
Looks like an awesome CNC too! Nice sign at the end!
Thanks Scott! I can’t lie, the tool changer spoils me! Lol
Great video buddy! Can’t wait to get one, one day
Thanks Omar! I can definitely see you and your imagination going wild with one of these!
Thank You ! You’ve been a tremendous help to me.
That was an awesome tutorial.🤩🤩🤩 Thank you 🥰🥰
Thank you 🙏🏾
Can u not set up G54 in your machine so that it would be saved? Therefore every-time u run the G code it would automatically find the G54 location and go to that location.
You can program even more locations as-well that way you don’t have to set up X and Y every time
I only set my x and y one time. Each time I turn the machine on.
Nice machine
Thank you 🙏🏾
Great idea.
Thanks Carl!
Wishing you the best growth with your channel bro! Once I get a bigger shop, I'll be getting one of these
Thanks Anil, I really appreciate your support! I know you’ll have one sooner than you think! Y’all do great work!
@@NolanBuilt we are here for you bro! Thanks bro, I praying that happens! 🙏🏾
That's pretty slick!!!
Thanks Corey
I want to like these, but there's a few things that just kill it. Namely, the stand-a-lone controller and the USB drive. Why? Mach3, WINCNC and UCCNC are all proven systems with ease of use. Making changes on the fly in VCarve and saving the file to the desktop and then uploading directly to UCCNC is used SO often there's no way I would want this setup. Also, why are there only 8-tools on the ATC rack?
I think Phantom should give the user the option for both systems. Seems to be a beast of a machine for a heck of a good price otherwise.
It is a beast of a machine. I love it!
me 2. half dozen more modern controllers out there. they claim its made in NC, they are down the road from me. I will have to see for myself.
This is an awesome video Nolan! Now I don’t have a CNC yet but when I get one (claiming in Jesus name) I will definitely reference this 💪🏾
Yes! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 speak 🗣️ it into existence!
Good work nice job
Awesomeness
Thanks Aaron!
Good work nice job

Excellent video about some important basics I needed to know. I'm planning on purchasing a t model too.
Building out a 15x30 CNC space adjacent to my shop. 2 questions. 1. Is 15x30 comfortably large enough for the 5x10 model, and 2. How high a ceiling is needed for vacuum tubing. In 9' enough?
Thanks man! 15’ x 30’ would fit but the 9 ft ceiling might not work without some modifications to the dust boom. If you don’t use the dust boom then you’ll be fine.
Love the nutcracker. where did you get the file?
Thanks I just found a random google image
Hey great video, now that you’ve had a few months to use the machine for cabinet work, are you happy with its production capabilities? I’m looking to buy one too, but is it fast enough to cut lots of cabinets? We mainly use particle board with melamine instead of plywood. Would love your feedback.
Yea man, I’ve been running mine at 400 ipm cutting out a sheet between 3 minutes and 10 minutes depending on how many small parts are on one sheet. I can definitely go faster but just haven’t tried to yet. I just finished cutting out an entire kitchen on it. Hoping to have the video out on that process soon.
@@NolanBuilt thanks for the info, looking forward to seeing that video.
Did you remove the hold down rollers? Or does this machine not have one?
I removed mine because I have the older version CNC that doesn’t have the automatic rollers like the new ones have. The olds one can’t use the rollers with the automatic tool changer.
@@NolanBuilt I see, makes sense
If you are anything like me in twenty five years you will look back and say this was the best investment of my life.
I hope that I am! I’m loving it so far. Just have to keep feeding it. Lol 😂
How much it cost vs say a Laguna or shopsabre brand?
I paid $36,500 versus $75,000 for the same setup from others
what kind of post do you need for this ?
The post processor depends on which software you want to design in. I currently run Vcarve pro and mozaik
how much was this?
$36,500 in 2022
What did this cost?
When I bought mine it was $36,500. Since my version, they made many upgrades to the new style offered. So it may be a little more now.
Phantom just quoted me $48,000. Quite shocked for that price as I could buy a shopsabre 4x8 fully loaded.
@@everettmantis3951 that’s what the shopSabre would start at. When I got quotes from them my same machine was $80k I have a 5x10 fully loaded.
@@NolanBuilt I got a quote from shopsabre for a 408 PRO for “around 50,000 give or take” (salesman’s words) and again it was a rough quote.
It included-
Single phase 5hp spindle
ATC 8 position
Phenolic table with 8 grids
F4 vacuum
Pop up pins
Is the controller and software pretty user friendly on the phantom?
@@everettmantis3951 yes the controls on the phantom are very easy to use. The only difference I see in the shop Sabre you got quoted for is a 5hp spindle versus the 16hp spindle that phantom offers.
