Now that's how you do a time lapse! But even then it shows really nice overview of the build without it being 4 parts and waffling cant wait to get mine going now! Printing parts at the mo then ordering bolts and the tubing on payday. I like how you did the base so it can be slid out and scrapped once its beyond rescuing :D
I just finished building my mpcnc a few weeks ago and used your electronics box and wanted to say thank you. I like the design and it fit my needs perfectly!
Nice, I'm glad you are happy with the design. And good luck with your MPCNC. If it's not to much trouble, it would be great to see a make upload on my thingiverse page.
Done
@@primate2744 lovely!
Thanks! I still have to tidy up the wiring and do some more permanent soldering and heat shrink on the main power connection as well as install the drag chains but other than that it's pretty much done. I've been testing on rigid foam sheet material so far with great results. I did 900mm x 600mm and even though I prepared the longer rails for supports I haven't noticed any flex yet. I like the way you recessed your spoil board as well. I'm going to do that since I plan on milling a few things and would like that extra space.
Love the fact the comic sound effects were left in the edit.
Great video! Cool build process and getting it dirty all in one!
Thx alot Ryan.
And thanks to you for a wonderful design and easy to build instructions and making it al open source for us makers to create one of our own.
@@makerlindh5372 Well not "Open Source" but easily accessible!
@@allted yes that's true.
Ryan - V1 Engineering Inc should definitely be open source where people can modify it and put the files up. Your design is great. Amazing at that. But you’re giving the print files out for free anyways. Why wouldn’t you allow people to modify them
@@mattchumoore4214 You can modify and put the files up. You simply need to use the same license as I do, that is the share alike part.
Nice! I don't have that much room so went for 600 x 600, about 350 x 350 useable on mine. Being smaller also meant I could use stainless tubing without breaking the bank. I really recon you meed supports especially with that heavy router! There are some great cablechains on thingiverse. Looking forward to seeing what you cut with yours!
Yes, mid supports will be needed to get the higher detail in Z axis. For now I just cut all the way trough so don't need that precision. Measured the flex to about 1 mm.
Health successes in your labor have been very wonderful expect more successes
Thank you. Hopefully I will upload a new movie about my upgrades and usage of the mpcnc
@@makerlindh5372 Dear teacher, we are waiting for your new videos. Can you give the model and features of the nema17 stepper motors that you use?
Hello, I was trying to build a MPCNC machine on my own but I was wondering if you took a manual in reference or how did you build the CNC machine?
Wow Nice, we are waiting for your new videos.
Dankeschön fürs Zeigen
I built my machine using the Dewalt. The largest bit is a 1/4". What's your Makita use? 1/8th and 1/4" also or can you go with a bigger diameter bit? Second question, what did you use to create your light behind the 5 sign?
Hello Mike
At the moment I only use the standard 1/8th bit I think it is. It is possible to buy another chuck to it so I can go 1/4 as maximum. But the raidous of the bit can be smaller than the milling side of the bit. I have used a 1/8 bit with a milling diameter of 1" but then I need to go alot slower. The machine can skip steps if going to fast and big.
And about the light I milled a smaller 5 in thicker material and glued it behind. Then just a ledstrip around the smaller number, haven't finished that project yet, I want it to be solar powered.
Interested in which control board you used? Awesome job man!
I baught a kit from V1 engineering. I think is is a rambo 1.4 board. Dont remember. There is also a new version of the mpcnc wich is way better than this. Same electronics but bigger belts an pulley system.
Well done. Big size = exactly what i want to do. what is your accuracy? 0.1mm?
Hello Mike.
Havnet measured the accuracy on it. I mostly do signs and sculpting so the tolerances are not important for me.
I'm wondering if you could answer a question. Not sure what I'm doing wrong, I went with the 24x24 build and standard Z-axis, however, I just finished the build and the long thread rod sticks way down to the point where it only gives me 3/4" of travel, do I need to cut the threaded rod? Right now the calculator put it at 10.75 lengths for the conduit which should be 3.25 travel distance. I do not see in the instructions to cut the threaded rod.
Hello Steven and welcome to the MPCNC family.
So on the page where you get all the calculations, you can find the Leadscrew minimum length in the 5raw to the right :)
Just creat it maybe 1" extra long to have some spare if needed

great job !! do you use marlin or grbl?
I think it was Marlin. Its al in V1 Engineerings homepage.
Nice job!, I was wondering what your total working space is? Have you notice any major flex issues? Also did you purchase the kit from V1?
Thanks
Thx.
The working area is X and Y 1000x1000 mm and Z 50mm.
I haven't fully tested it yet but some small testing I have done indicates a really small flex in the Z-axis about 1mm. So I'm planning on printout some extra support legs for the X and Y pipes to counter the Z flexing.
Yes, I did order a full Kit from V1 except for printed parts.
@@makerlindh5372 Thanks for the replay, I've just started to print mine any tips or changes you would recommend? I was thinking of getting a 500w spindle just to keep the noise down a little :) Great Job !!
@@robkowalski6567 Many are talking about the corners that they are weak but I haven't noticed any problems with the new original design.
I did print some belt tensioners to use instead of the zip ties used. www.thingiverse.com/thing:1833934
And if you are going BIG as I did this is the extra legs that I plan to mount on X and Y www.thingiverse.com/thing:1160962
The spindle depends on what material you are going to machine. 500w sound good. I bought a 700w Makita.
@@robkowalski6567 I also forgot to mention my own design for the electronics :) here's the link to download www.thingiverse.com/thing:3400866
@@makerlindh5372 About to build one and was going for work area of about 36" or 900mm roughly. Did you end up having any issues with the size you made? Just plan on cutting mainly wood and very rare aluminum. Did you end up finding or using mid-span legs? Good info and video.
And please if don't mind.
which one yu used PLA or ABS and how many kg?
I don't remember how much plastic I used up but it was PLA atleast.
I used up about 2.5KG. I did over specify the prints a little though.
Yes that sound about right.
What is your usable milling area?
On this build it was 1000*1000*45 mm
@makerlindh5372 that's a good size. Any issues with it being that big? Flexing? Thanks
@@patswayze2493 yes a few issues but nothing that wasn't possible to fix. There was a litte bit of flex but this was solved with extra support legs. And for what I was cutting it was never a problem. But today my working area is 600*600*75 this is still bigger then my projects I normally do. And it takes way less space in my shop 👌
Router can run for 8 hours continually?
Haven't done any big cuts like that yet. Longest is 4 h and that was without any problem. The router wasn't hot at all. But maybe that depends on how fast and deep you cut.
Frage wie groß ist den deine MPCNC
hi!!! you use Rambo 5 driver?
Hello. No, My build is on a Rambo 1.4
What type of tubing did you use?
25 mm steel tubes 2 mm thick. .
@@makerlindh5372 ah, so you didn't use conduit? You're using mm so I'm assuming you are not in the US.
@@conradcrews4007 I'm from Europe. But there is a inch set of parts to print so you can use inch tubes as well.
What size is it?
X1200 Y1200 Z70
@@makerlindh5372 thanks
@@makerlindh5372 am planning to have one as soon as I receive my order...
What size do you aim for?
@@makerlindh5372 still haven't decided.

Wow that looks slow and flimsy. The depth of cut is pathetic.
