  • Showing off some of the unique features of the new Stepcraft M.1000 CNC. This CNC is able to cut below its table height which means we can carve a cool design into the top of my workbench. The reason I'm so excited about upgrading to the Stepcraft CNC is the rigidity and all the optional accessories. It's way more than just your ordinary CNC. Watch the video to see all the cool things this machine can do that others can't!
    You know that beautiful maple top workbench you've seen in my videos over the past 3 years? Well it's time to add some color to it! I inlay some contrasting walnut and use Total Boat's resin to make it "pop" and fit into the new playful theme of my studio.

    Starting a UA-cam channel is a better option than starting a real business.
    Where else can you get free tools and build shops as a business. I recently saw April Wilkerson get a $40k Shopsabre CNC and a complete shop full of Grizzly tools.... not normal tools!!! 16" jointers and sliding panelsaws.
    Good for all of you! I am jealous but also support your hard work. I've been a sub since you taught me how to build a wine box with a incra jig!!

    If you do the tabs half hight or less. When you sand the residue of the tab away angle your sander table down so you’re only sanding the bottom edge and the top edge remains unmolested and maintains the machined dimensions.

  • @nerddub
    @nerddub 2 роки тому +2

    For thin panels, try blue painters tape on both workpiece and the bed / spoilboard, then super glue between the two layers of tape. I was skeptical at first, but it holds really well, and if your bed is flat enough, the two layers of tape mean you can cut all the way through your piece but not your spoilboard (bonus not necessary, it is a spoilboard after all). Then the piece is pried up, tape peels off, voila! Can NEVER have too many workholding techniques!! Great video!

  • @jvin248
    @jvin248 3 роки тому +5

    Use the CNC to cut a grid in your spoil board and insert strips of window seal 'foam rope', then a port to your vacuum, you'll have a vacuum hold-down.

  • @fanman421
    @fanman421 3 роки тому +1

    The vacuum holder with the gasket is exactly like one I made about 8 years ago. I used engineered countertop material (Corian) as a surface and the CNC to make the checkerboard pattern. Then used 1/4” neoprene weatherstrip as the gasket material. I tried prying the edge of a workpiece up with a screwdriver and bent the shaft of the screwdriver in the failed attempt at lifting the edge.

    First time ive seen your vids here In Australia and i have to say very well done i really like how you are explaining these cnc THINGYS (and then corrected) terms. we all understand thingy terms. This is one of the very few educational / explanation video that readers want to learn from for two reasons that your video not only explains the CNC talk but also the how to explanation talk. The people that understand what im saying will agree this is what a youtube presenter should be clear, understanding, not 100% scripted and boring scientific talk and most importantly engaging at the viewers level. So many times we get presenters not knowing what they talking about or they know to much and cant explain things without losing or confusing viewers so if im making sense (no pun intended) people who want to be a presenter should take a page outta this mans book. Well done and PS ill give you the thumbs up but i am right fr the choc top thanks :-). GREAT WORK KEEP EM COMING

    Making It podcast listener and subscribed fan here. I've often heard it mentioned by many makers on YT that digital fabrication content doesn't always fair well. Especially for woodworking demographic. However as a person that works in an environment that utilizes cnc equipment regularly; its fascinating to see how you jump into it. I look forward to your creative ideas and use cases. One minor caution I feel obligatory to mention... you've mentioned how the router scares you because of how dangerous it can be. Bare in mind this is basically the same tool in reverse. Get very familiar with the location of those E-stops, do not wear gloves, and never reach towards a spinning spindle. Thanks for sharing.

    I'm in the process of buying a laser engraver. I never really consider a CNC machine but that is a work of art. The problem is, it doesn't come with any attachments, so the price is going to add up quickly. i love the fact you did't edit out not fixing the dust collector, the first time, and then not turning it on. Haha! The fact you learned something in the process offsets it.

    @willrobertson7152 2 роки тому

    When running onion skinning it is best to utilized a sealed vacuum system under the mdf. If you create vacuum sealing under the mdf and then seal the top side of the spoil board around the part you can achieve a flat surface. Keep the onion skin around .01" Keep your onion skin channel just wider than the bearing of your table router. It's nice to program in an entry hole instead of punching thru the onion skin. If profiling go once thru the onion skin to free up the part. Then profile(roundover, champfer, or whatever. better to have a free part to move freely for profiling to eliminate burning and chatter based issues.

    next time you hafta do the bridge (tab) thing, make them as thin as you think you can get away with and then after freeing them from the board, use a flush cutting router bit with the bearing running against the top part of the part which represents the final shape. no sanding. no sanding problems.
    cool tool, btw!
