I Built a Custom 5 Axis CNC Router and Barely Used It
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2022
- I dropped out of video game art school to make RC cars, this homemade 5 axis CNC machine was was part of that plan, I spent $10,000 and 10 months building, then I never really used it much.
Hear a bunch nitty gritty details about how I built it and the software I wrote to drive it.

I’m thinking to port the script to JavaScript and run it on a website probably with an ad to help pay for server costs). Would you like to see that happen?
Would a fiberglass mold work for your original intended product?
@@coop3014 As a tool to vacuum form over? Maybe. As a final product? Nah, it has to be polycarbonate, that's the industry standard material.
I think the port is a great Idea. Honestly if you are able to document it's usage very well a monthly subscription or one time fee would be a good idea. G-code for 5Axis has always been a problem at a reasonable cost. I've been into cnc's for well over a decade now and the 5 axis jump is always in the back of my mind.
yes
nominal cost, ability to purchase through jungle site... unlikely though, that stuff is a pain to set up for non-physical stuff, selling serial number cards for someone to register, cookie tied to number turns off ads, that might work and third party handles physical cards. get enough people hitting the site for g-code generation and ads won't pay for server costs.
“I didn’t need a 5 axis, but I wanted one. So I made one.” Haha awesome
And you know what? It's the best thing I ever did!
@@machsuper 2nd vid and you got approval from the grandmaster 🙂😮
@@Basement_CNC pretty crazy, right? What's going on?!
@@machsuper nah stuffmafe here is probably the biggest machining channel on yt🤷♂️
also i want to build a 5axis cnc millas well , but am not quite sure about the code ? is there a proper 5 axis control software, or will you make your mach4 script avalible?
becaue im quite confident in cam/cad and want to expand that to 5axis milling, but cant afford one ,so the only way is to diy it , but its really hard to find all the software and know what works with what
@@Basement_CNC hey felix, check out my most recent video, it's the beginning of my new project to 5 axis convert my benchtop mill. I'll be explaining lots of details about that video-by-video. I'd like to make some form of the script available to people in the future.
The most underrated DIY machine video. What a great project.
Apart from the ton of knowledge that you have acquired, you have completed the project. That is what counts. You have our respect.
Thank you Ben! Appreciate that.
That's huge actually, good point, I have a gigantic pile of half finished projects that I have just never gotten back to. Finishing things is definitely a skill.
@@dankay9202 I'm in the same boat.
This video is awesome. I took a grad course on 5 axis CNC toolpath generation, and you basically did a couple scientific papers' worth of work, wrote your own inverse kinematics post processor, and made an awesome visualization out of it too. This is crazy impressive.
Thank you mate! Such high praise, makes me feel good about investing more into this whole thing. Thank you for the sub too. ☺️
As a retired guy not wanting to sit on a porch and watch traffic, I also have dipped by toe into both building a five axis machine and writing the CAM software to generate the tool paths. I will not finish the machine until there is proof that the software will accomplish what I expect. I am using Rhino3d to generate the desired shape, and an plugin called Grasshopper to generate the GCode. Fun stuff while in discovery mode, dark moments when I learn what I need to learn. Thanks for the Video and the inspiration. What you have described is a gift that will keep on giving.
unless you're some programming savant, why are you wasting time on writing a custom cam software, just pirate mastercam or hypermill and concentrate on mechanical and electrical.
@@jonjon3829 the joy is in the journey. I also want to know how to make 5 axis CAM software properly.
I love that. I also dream of making proper CAM software. I’ve thought about many approaches, I just don’t know how to understand the data structures and mathematics for it all yet. I hope you figure it out… and then help me 😄
@@machsuper you guys must be in the top IQ dept. I've spent 3 years designing a 5 axis microcenter and I'm barely scratching the surface. After all this time all I got is what type of a frame I will use. That's all I've managed to do after investigating all possible frames on the market and a hundred cad concepts not to mention hundreds of hours running FEA on half of them.
@@jonjon3829 sounds like you're simply making a better machine than I would. I genuinely doubt I'm in the high IQ range.
I'm speechless.. I clicked on your video cause I had designed my own 5 axis CNC but never pulled the trigger but man... Your mind is incredible, I'm truly in awe. To be able to understand the complex movement of 5 axis is one thing but to write the custom code to get your machine to work this well is mind boggling. I'm beyond impressed, well bloody done! Being another Aussie just tops it off 🤘👊
That's so gratifying to read. Thank you for that Mitch! I want to take it much further, but it's a time consuming project.
Reallly, REALLY cool video. I'm humbled & impressed. Thank you warmly for taking the time to document your process so simply & so nicely.
Wow, what a project. Very impressive, both the actual build and the effort that went into figuring out path generation.
This dude is the literal definition of engineering. Honestly, good for you my guy. You had the resources, the time, and the (partial) know how to do something and freaking just sent it and did it. This is what I want
I love when people call me a real engineer, it helps to make up for the lack of engineering degree. Thank you mate. You only live once, do the coolest things you can.
@@machsuperI got finance degree and master in economics. But I play with oscilloscope, microcontroler and motors😂
Crazy project, could fail many times for different reasons but you salvaged it every time, didn't give up and made it work. Respect, man.
Thank you mate. A lot was learned about perseverance in that project.
What an awesome project! Thank you for posting about it, if you ever want someone to help bounce ideas off of don’t hesitate to ask! Myself or other members of the community love nerding out and helping share our passion.
incredibly clever on the software side of things, how awesome!
Brilliant! What a fantastic project! Really appreciated hearing about your journey along the way.
Thanks! Glad I could entertain :)
Super accomplishment. I'm old and have been down several paths like that, and like you, they were the best things I ever did. Huge kudos to you.
Thank you mate. Nice to have people like you to share understanding.
This content is absoultely stellar! I'm still using M3 on my 3 axis mill w/4th axis rotary. But your scripts are awesome on your explanations concise! Subscribed!
Please please keep posting. I’m both impressed and inspired by both of your current videos.
It's amazing, having people like you comment on my (two) videos. So gratifying. I plan to keep going very strong, even if I have to move houses soon :D
what a great project, and an awesome video. really enjoyed it, and huge congrats for having built your own 5-axis machine. Really impressive
Thank you Adrian! It won't be my last 5 axis either, stay tuned! :)
Awesome machine! And You - you are great at storytelling, easy, pleasant to listen to!
That's a really great compliment to receive about storytelling. I've always felt like I struggle with storytelling, I think my increasing ability to love people and understand what others are thinking is the key. Thanks for the great comment!
Incredible work, likely one of the most informative and best visual representations of complex system dynamics I've seen. Keep at it!
What a compliment! Thank you for that. That type of presentation will be a mainstay on Mach Super wherever it's appropriate.
Wow so many diverse skills to get that done, well done!
Although you say you "never really used it much", it must have been a great source of knowledge for you. I bet the projects you tackle in the future will make use of this again and again! This is a great video, providing insight for those planning similar projects. If it puts some people off even starting, that may not be a bad thing... you may have saved them time, money, and heartbreak.
Thanks for this... Liked & Subscribed, and looking forward to browsing your other offerings! 👍
Thank you so much for the nice comment John! No doubt this project has ingrained in me a passion for building machines and I will certainly take a lot from this machine to help me think about future projects.
Since building this machine I’ve really wanted to help make contributions to the DIY CNC community. This channel is very much part of that wish. Sometimes I wonder if I should keep my ideas secret for profit, but I learned the value of transparency and shared knowledge from this community, so I should stick to my most honourable values.
@@machsuper , yeah i would love to share some things I've figured out, but since I am a very small shop, I can't talk about a lot of stuff... competition is fierce! If I ever got big enough or if I made youtube videos as a large part of my income then* I think it would be profitable to share tricks.
Simply awesome - that is an inspirational story . Much respect to you for your hard work and tenacity . Lots of very challenging problems to overcome . Subbed for sure!
Thanks for that mate! Certainly wasn't easy.
I built a 3Axis Machine myself, but with a byable Controller.
That was not easy for me.
But what you did is another Level!
Absollutely great !
awesome job, you impact me. Feel bad to exploring you new but i'm happy to see your vision. Waiting on the screen for the new updates
Thanks for sharing! Having done similar journeys with cncs and other projects, Indeed the lessons learned are whats valuble!
For sure, it's such a great mix of skills that results in a fully tangible and useful end result. CNC machining is fantastic.
you have one of the most useful skills on this planet.
Which skill is that?
@@machsuper the ability to design and manufacture the best type of manufacturing machine.
This was a super inspirational video and amazing work. Thanks for posting!
Thanks Blake! And you’re welcome. ☺️
Increadible work, very well done m8t!
Thanks Vincent!
Hey ,tanks so much for sharing your knowledge i feel so identified with your story, i have buit a 3 axis cnc and never used to much, but i learned a lot building it! cheers from Argentina.
Building a machine is a great activity, isn't it? Thanks for the comment Hernan.
As someone completely new to the DIY hobby but affine to 3D visualization I can only express my highest appreciation for both the effort you put into visualizing the 5-axis concepts you implemented as well as the effort you put into the project itself. Very inspiring!
Thank you, it’s really nice to have someone aware of the challenge appreciating the work. Gotta dream big.
I really appreciated that video, especially from a fellow Aussie. In the past 12 years I have built and sold 3 CNC machines and barely used them as well. Im quite convinced that the actual hobby IS the build, and not using the machine. I have quite a few CNC buddies who don't use theirs either. I remember building my first machine and having no idea how to run it or create gcode. Its quite weird building a functioning machine but not knowing how to actually drive it.
Anyhow thanks for your honest account. I think it will help quite a few people.
One thing Im very sure of, is the minute you dont have a CNC machine, you will want one again.
For your moulds I reckon 3D resin printing and then sand and polish is the go today.
Hey Ben. You found this also. Awesome stuff here. I mill in foam, put a silicon with backed fibre glass jacket over the top. Make a plaster mould from the silicon/fibre glass mold and vac form over the plaster. When the mold breaks, I just pour another. And I was proud getting my cam software to spit out g-code for my mills plasma cutting conversion. However, this is next level. My hat is off to you... Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Did your vacuum formed parts have clear windows? That was a killer for me, it was so hard to get a good finish on the inside. It seems like it has to be a near mirror finish to leave the surface nice and clear. It has to stay very clean too.
Thank you for the great comment. :)
@@spidey4fun Hey sir, did you stumble upon my comment or get a notification? Mate I always think what you do is amazing. Currently Im making another virtual pinball cab. The software has streamed ahead since the last one I built. We gptta all catch up again at some point.
@@machsuper I know you were asking Spidey, but my thought is could you make the mould and then cut out the window part and carefully glue in glass. That way you would maintain a smooth hard surface. I still recon 3d resin printing has come of age. One other point, people imagine CNC to create a finished surface, but that's a mistake, you need to clean and polish by hand.
@@ynnebbenny Hi Ben, I was just reading through the comments and saw your name. Thanks for your kind words.
Subscribed. Looking forward to whatever madness is coming. One thing that drives me crazy about this video is I have the skills and knowledge to do everything you did, and part of me wants to, but I probably never will. So major props to you for actually doing it!
Thank you mate! Knowing how something might be done and actually fleshing it out are two different things, huh? It's not easy to see it through, I have plenty of unfinished projects that will never see completion.
@@machsuper Definitely. I have a game programming degree and I've basically done all of the math you had to do, but for graphics, 3D objects, physics, inverse kinematics, and more. I'm sure you've used quaternions? Fun stuff I still can't fully wrap my head around even if I've implemented them several times. Plus I've obviously programmed in several languages. I also have experience with electronics, small machines, robots, circuits, all the random stuff. CNC and 3D printing I haven't actually done yet though except for just dipping my toes in. Either way, combining all the skills and doing something like this is super impressive! Really hard for me to find the focus. So even though it took you a lot of time, it's that you got it done that impresses me so much. I too have a million ideas, many projects that will never get finished, and more than a handful still in progress. Sorry for the ramble, but hey hope you're feeling less sick and can make some more content soon!
@@802Garage Wow! You've gone deeper down the mathematics path than I have. I'm currently studying maths from the ground up, day by day. I'm really not as educated on maths as this machine makes me out to be. Never touched quarternions, though I believe it uses four numbers to specify orientation. iPhone uses it to do the 3D tilting effect in the home screen.
You could definitely do some great things with your skills.
Keen to see you breaking things with that twin turbo V10 haha
This is impressive! Bought my first machine a year ago, it s just a 3 axis cnc and i can t even imagine how hard is to build and code your own. Subscribed! Can t wait the progress with the optimill.
It's quite a challenge, but boy is it satisfying... and useful!
Impressive, excited to see more!
More to come! Currently working on the mill CNC conversion.
Thanks for sharing your journey!! Can’t wait to see more 👍👍 welcome to Brissy 😁
Thank you and thank you! I love the weather.
Brilliant storyline...thanks for sharing! Sometimes the journey is the most important part right? You learn and you grow and maybe you develop something unique or maybe you see the path to get where you really wanted to be. The best lesson is indeed...you can do it! I say good on you for doing it as quickly as you did. My 4-axis Router took me 20 years. :) But I learned the same along the way and was proud of my completed machine and the unlimited projects you can then create going forward! You really are only limited today by your imagination. Can't wait to see your mill!
Absolutely, the journey is the most important part for many things, life is one big journey. The good part is already happening every day. Congratulations on your 20 year project! Thanks for the comment Chuck!
Cool project. And indeed very inspiring. Just do it. And indeed, stuff comes along the way that you didn't anticipated. And then solve and overcome those things is really valuable. 👍
The thinking and problem solving is my favourite part of it all, honestly. I love taking on complicated challenges that interest me, and I HATE taking on challenges that don't.
Absolutely Amazing work! Subscribed.
Love the script software.
Cheers Make Tech! I saw you over on Instagram too, I hope I don't disappoint going forward!
Awesome work
Respect ! came across your video, awsome work !
Very well done, particularly the coding side of things. That's a huge acomplishment and you obviously developed some invaluable skills along the way. Keep it up.
Thank you David! I can’t wait to go even further on my next project and take you all with me.
Thanks a lot... Now when I look to my 3 axis build, looks like a toy 🤣
Congratulations for this awesome documentary. I can't wait to see how the new machine is going to build up.
Subscribed!
Haha well it was my third machine, if that's any consolation. :D
I'm with you buddy, I can't wait to see the new machine running.
Very Neatly done keep it up and many thanks for sharing Awesome work
Thanks Garth! I appreciate that a lot. Stay tuned, more to come.
i subscribe straight away amazing work bud you are a true talent keep up the work 👌love to see that optimum behind you turned into a cnc 😁
Thank you so much Steven. I really am amazed with all the nice comments. Stay subscribed, first video on the Optimum mill out soon!
Fantastic! Inspiring to hear your narrative.
And I find it inspiring for you to say that. Thank you. :)
Awesome dude 👏👏👏
Even though the result of a project you made didn't turn out to be useful in the area you hoped it would be useful for, what you learnt while making it, will stay with you till the end of your life and potentially make other projects significantly more doable for you. That alone, is orders of magnitude more valuable than the machine you've made. Incredibly impressive project. While on university, I wanted to make a simple 4 DOF robot arm (kinda of what you can now buy in kits these days, but it wasn't the case back then), but thinking about the challenges that would come with kinematics ( really wanted the tool end linear movement approximation) made me abandon the project. You did that as if it was nothing, and way ore than that. Incredible skill. Congratulations!
Absolutely correct. I definitely didn’t take full advantage if what I had once completed, but I am now trying to take full advantage of what I learned.
Robot arms are intimidating, aren’t they? I started trying to program a 6 axis arm from scratch one time and I was gradually finding answers, but I never stuck with it long enough to see it through. Too busy.
Thank you for the great comment.
I’m caught up in starting a completely separate company now, but I’ve got passionate dreams about machines to build in the future that I WILL do.
Keep on going, thanks for your Content, loved to watch the video
Thanks! I'm still playing around with the tonality to see what works best for you guys and myself too.
What a impressive approach to solve a problem, you are a real engineer. I hope one day I could have this superpowers like skills. God bless you
That is SUCH a gratifying compliment. Thank you so much Rodrigo!
Great project really impressive
This is really impressive . Congrats !
Thank you Radu Cristian! :D
I use to race slot cars and RC cars back in the 80’s painted all of my lexan body’s. I won many paint schemes contest and got a lot of requests to paint lexan body’s for other racers and they too won paint contest. Memories of the good ole days. Great video on your old machine, it would be a great project, perhaps a smaller version
That’s awesome mate! I’ve always loved the designs you get on RC touring cars.
I want to make a smaller 5 axis router, but it’s looking more like I’ll end up making an even bigger one first.
Subscribed, monumental effort. Well done mate.
Cheers BR!
Really a wonderful project you did and really a nice technique you used for 4th and 5th axis.
Hello, very cool project! I learned in a thermoforming company, I programmed such 5-axis head-head machines (HG Systech with NUM control) for a few years and now own one :-) I also build loudspeakers on it.
I think your approach to the 5-axis RTCP process is very cool, you learned a lot more than when you used LinuxCNC or similar control systems in which other users have already implemented such features :-)
A tip: If you want to thermoform transparent materials, do not pull the material onto the tool with the vacuum, but leave a thin layer of air between the tool surface and the plastic. That's the way when we thermoformed clear materials.
Greetings from Germany!
Amazing! Well done.
Thank you mate!
great job !
Wow! Hats off to you sir! This is a huge accomplishment. Also great video explaining the whole process! You put all of us 3 axis diy cnc mill builders to shame lol
Thanks Benjamin! I don't want you to be ashamed though haha.
Great video, and I really like your hoodie
Thank you, I designed and sewed it myself. :)
Brilliant work👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻.
I used to work in a factory that manufactures sport helmets. The outer shell of the helmet are made of polycarbonate made vacuum shell. We made the vac tool with aluminum in mass production. When we prototype in the development stage, we use Bakelite. It is easier to mill. There are many air vents to ensure the suction distributes evenly among the shell. You may have a try.
Ah! I did see the helmet vac forming process during my research. I saw the aluminium moulds. Honestly, I think I could have cut aluminium with the machine if I was careful. I should have asked more people what to do about the problem, but I was just exhausted, young, stupid and getting interested in other things.
Back in the 80's we added a similar head to our line of large boring mills. Only issue at the time was the CNC programming language. Ended up having to use the APT programming software to do the demo. It worked as a R&D project but not sellable.
well done, you should be proud for the achivment, but more so for the commitment to see it through.
Great Job with soft part 👏👍
Thank you! Cheers!
You reinvented the wheel. By the way, that's cool, and impressive. Not putting down your accomplishments. Reverse kinematics isn't easy. It's a great education, no doubt.
Unfortunately, all of this should have been open sourced by our forebears so that the tech can advance without replication of past efforts.
Thanks Pappa Flammy Boi! The industry could use more quality and accessible education on how these machine should and can work. That’s much of what I’m trying to help with by making these videos. I’m not an expert, but I enjoy it and I get excited by it.
Super impressive build!
Thanks Nicholas!
That's really something!!👍
Really enjoyed that. Realised I don't have the skills to build one myself and also I don't need 5 axis either. Keep up the good work
Thanks a lot Paul! If it's the software that scares you off, you should understand that I kind of did it the hard way. Using a different controller like UCCNC or Kflop might eliminate the need for the custom script.
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Huge congratulations for your achievement 👏 🙌 👍 👌!!
I am just starting out in my RC custom building and designing adventure!! I have to say that this video inspired me to push forward bit more than I was going to.
I was never able to pick up a project and keep coming back to it, however this type is one that I feel I could do, like building my own rc truck and I think that is mainly do to the fact that I wanted to learn 3d design and kept coming back to do more.
Also one thing I found as lesson, is that if I feel stuck, just leave it for little bit, do something else and i would just figure things out another way.
I'm taking my time in learning different skills along the way like 3d design, xyz axis, making tools for making stuff along the way, got my first desktop cnc (3018) to start learning on it and have to say soon as I got it was intenting to get upgrades🙄.
I don't know how to code, maybe should start that skills soon aswell. 🤔
Would you say to buy a budget ( 1st to start learning to use one) milling machine or upgrade cnc to 4 axis?🤔 .
Best regards from UK
Great stuff! I still, to this day, wonder if I should get back into making RC parts. I hope you succeed, mate.
I ALWAYS have several very different projects running, so if I'm stuck with one, I spend time on another one. I'm always working on something and being productive. It's important to keep good documentation of what you're doing so you don't get rusty between stints. I use Notion to keep track of my whole life, just about.
I learned all of my machining, coding and electronics knowledge online, especially from UA-cam for the machining. If you have the time, you should learn to code. My primary language these days is JavaScript, it's just so useful and flexible.
This was a really nice watch, I really like your presentation and your voice is so pleasant to listen to.
I love how this machine has many parts with so much thought put in and some with almost zero consideration.
Oh and I really hope you've invested in some proper calipers because measuring (supposed to be) precision parts with plastic calipers hurts my soul.
Thanks Oliver, I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)
I have definitely bought some much better inspection tools lately. Even got myself a like-new Mitutoyo digital depth micrometer! You really do get what you pay for with inspection tools.
Wow, JUST WOW. I work with vacuum forming, and we used XPS foam. It's a hi density extruded foam, NOT CHEAP but great to machine. Also, to get a smooth surface to a pull we wood do a .06 styrene pull on the buck to give skin.
Every once in a while, I watch a video that reminds me of how much I'm not hot shit and hiw much more talented some other people are. Props, mate!
Ahhh maaan! That’s not the effect I want my videos to have. I want people to be motivated if anything. Thank you anyway, though!
great work
Cheers buddy!
WELL DONE FROM TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO!!!!
Late reply, but thank you!
Great explanation, thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Creative video, thanks for sharing it :)
Thanks for visiting!
Jesus, im impressed! actually speachless :D That was a hell of a journey you went on there and i wouldnt have thought you would programm it yourself, thats really impressive. You started out as a videogame designer and became kind of an engineer over the course of this project, i love it :D If you ever want to do a project together, or need support on simulations/cad whatever hit me up (im an mechanical engineer in my masters from germany) and definitely a subscriber now! :D
Wow, thank you Joern! I definitely didn't become an engineer in this one video, I had a small Sieg X2 before this one, and I've been building things like motorbike ramps when growing up. This was definitely a big test for my capabilities though. Thank you for the offer to help, I'm going to start keeping a database of people who are offering help, it's the least I can do to show appreciation. Thanks for the comment, I'm nearing completion of my first video on the Optimum mill conversion. Follow me on Instagram if you want to see more frequent updates @mach_super
Great work
Thanks Sheetal! :)
GENIUS!
Amazing and mega cool! That script is the product! I realize there are not a whole lot of 5 axis CNC machines out there, but one of the problems is precisely the lack of software support. Either way, fantastic job man!
Thank you my man! You're right, it's the software that's the biggest bottleneck to 5 axis democracy, it's just so mathematically complicated to develop well.
Man! Great job even if You sold it, u got priceless experience, that worth more than money. Gl on next progects!
Very true, thank you mate! Onwards and upwards!
I thought I misheard when you said you measured with plastic caliper, so I replayed it. 😮Man, you paid several hundred dollars for the harmonic drive, then made the housing for it, using plastic caliper.
Great videos anyway!
Utterly in awe.
What a great video. Just found your channel from your scraping video, decided to check out your older stuff as well.
If you ever went back to trying to make forms for vacuum forming, one of the things I would personally try is to carve the form from wood (potentially adding some additional texture to the surface) and then covering it in a layer of automotive filler. Sands really nicely, fairly heat resistant, you should even be able to wet sand it to a near-polished surface which could help for the window areas.
I've been trying to plan some sort of CNC router for a while, not sure which direction I wanted to go in. Thanks for posting what did and didn't work for you :)
Thanks for the idea. I didn’t think of that. I firstly would assume it still can’t hold a goof surface across many uses, but I just remembered that I was using polycarbonate about three times too thick, so maybe it would’ve been more forgiving with the right work material.
They say that "Fools rush in"
BUT after "the fool" has worked it all out, HE IS NO LONGER A "FOOL"
And a hell of a lot of experience is gained along the way.
Well done
Just gotta be the right amount of foolish :D
Thanks Mr. Mad Man
Very interesting, you could use the head for porting cylinder heads! Definitely one of the most thought out diy multi axis systems out there.
Put it on a rigid enough machine and you certainly could. Might be pushing your luck doing it on my machine.
@@machsuper not really, nice light cuts and you can make wonders with small machines. Huge respect on the build!
I was planning on building a 3-axis CNC that I planned to upgrade to 5 if it went well, and the youtube gods recommended your channel. Its cool how you were able to learn from this process
Thank the gods! 😄
I hope your build goes well mate! Send me a DM on Instagram when it’s built, I’ll be curious to see what she looks like.
@@machsuper Thanks! I'll show you if I manage to finish it 😊
You can’t put a price on knowledge. This video got you another follower.
I hope you didn’t sell the CNC for too much of a loss.
BRAVO !
Absolutely great how you presented the idea you had and the background of it. Not exclusively technical but what you were thinking during the process.
I just wonder if you never came to the point to be so frustrated with some problems that you wanted to give it all up...
Thank you buddy! I never felt like giving up when fabricating, machining and programming, but I did get super frustrated with the limit switches and some issues with EMI in the electronics. I never fixed the limit switch issue, but I did fix the EMI by grounding the 5V power supply better.
Fire!
You are an inspiration
You saying that makes you MY inspiration. Thank you.
Very good!
Glad you think so! Thank you. :)
Looking forward to seeing the Optimum cnc conversion.
Great video, thanks. I can only hope that you are using your skills you acquired with designing 5 axis, in your day job.
Wish this was some as. Amit or something like that you’re a master mate
Awesome!
I have a feeling I'm going to like this new channel. good shit mate
Cheers Husky! ;)
I just watched you latest shop update video, I see a lot of super cool things in your shop! What a cool place! I'd love to have that probing, video-ning CMM!
@@machsuper Thanks! I really like your videos and I'm excited to see the next
nice work !!
Thanks!
Impressive 👍
Thanks 👍
