1419 Red CNC Review

[@guruvernekar7168]

Hi please let me know which software should I use to run this machine

[@DubiousEngineering]

Such a lovely produced video and so honest... bloody hard work being a KZbin creator! ... maybe time for a beer and Skype one day soon :-)

[@TheWoodgineer]

Why thank you 😀 and totally up for that 🍺

[@Tinkerneering]

Great video Chris. Nice to see it’s a mostly metal machine.

[@TheWoodgineer]

Thanks - yup no brittle plastic parts, this thing make a dent if you throw at it stuff :D

[@sandeepmane1884]

Hey can we engrave 0.8 mm depth in brass with this machine with ease?

[@carbostar]

Thanks for the video review, I've just bought this machine assembled it dismantled it and reassembled It ( just for fun) not had the chance to play with it yet !, I noticed in the video you didn't rate the software ? is there software that you would therefore recommend? Cheers .

[@TheWoodgineer]

Vectrics software hands down is amazing.

[@jamiereader]

Brilliant, that's looks ideal for the sort of things I was thinking of doing too

[@TheWoodgineer]

Its nice on the desk but I feel you'd benefit from something much bigger :D

[@TomasEverard]

Lovely little machine, you've got me thinking now!! The link to the CNC seems to be broken

[@TheWoodgineer]

Thanks Tomas! Hopefully fixed :)

[@AndyCPugh]

A nice looking machine!

[@TheWoodgineer]

I think so too! The CNC aint bad either ;)

[@PhilippinesDarrellCheeks]

Sounds like you from back wood country ;-)...thanks for the video

[@TheWoodgineer]

Nope down here in the South of England - thanks for watching :)

[@thenewfiewolf3925]

hey I have this cnc machine which came with the router and laser. was wonder if anyone knew what the wavelength of the laser that came with it is, hard to find info and need it so I can buy I pair of laser safety goggles

[@TheWoodgineer]

Sorry I don't :(

[@thewanderingeye7133]

thanks so much, does Vetric aspire have a lower price its 4x the cost of this machine at $1995.00

[@TheWoodgineer]

It is pricey but it is really really good - download a free trial if you want to check it out. If it doesn't work for you there are plenty of free solutions out there too.

[@ricardozaragoza2447]

I am trying to use OpenBuilds Control with my 1419 CNC but I can't move the motors with the software. Any idea why? It is also telling me that my Grbl 0.9j is out of date and I need to upgrade to Grbl 1.1.

[@TheWoodgineer]

Upgrade - it won't hurt and include lots of nice extra features (some of which you won't use of course but still nice to have)

[@hinz1]

Those boards on 1310/1419 usually are grbl 0.9 and with lockbit set, so you have to solder AVR chip onto arduino board and use Tl866 HV programmer with adapter to remove lock bit and flash grbl 1.1. Which works fine with Candle2.

[@slipperyRat-e4q]

Let me guess you were trying to cut stainless with HSS cutters? Yes? Rookie Mistake.

[@TheWoodgineer]

I had no idea what I was doing back then. I now have slightly less no idea what I'm doing ;)

[@AlistairBrugsch]

Oh no! Someone lost their toybox as a sacrifice to your enclosure! I hope you got a good telling off for that...

[@TheWoodgineer]

You'd think that wouldn't you? But no - its my CNC cover that's been smothered in stickers by the little one :D

[@mattw7949]

I build things that they to kill me as well.

[@TheWoodgineer]

:D

[@玩物益智]

Thanks to Chinese to make such good machine in cheap price.

[@TheWoodgineer]

They certainly do! Some of the best engineered (and also some of the worst) tools in the world. Banggood are a brilliant Chinese company to work with too :)

[@8ttiknio8]

could you cut through .5mm steel with this tool?

[@TheWoodgineer]

Yes, but just like you could cut down a tree with a pocket knife there are better tools for the job.

[@8ttiknio8]

@@TheWoodgineer I want to do small parts so it this would do it to a good accuracy level I'd be interested.
