Great work! I'v seen your old video with CNC Vertigo MX-1 Neptune and was wondering whether is it possible to make climbing holds with some less expensive and more portable CNC? MX-1 looks great, but price and space required are just too much.

[@wurfttobias]

Thanks, Alex! It's definitely possible, but I don't think it's much fun. The MX-1 is a good, small machine, but the spindel is already slightly underpowered for milling large things out of hard hardwood. So neither would I want to downgrade the spindel nor reduce the stiffness / weight (and thus price of the machine). You could consider going with smaller x and y dimensions (you definitely need the 140 mm z-travel), but I have no idea whether there are machines out there that are as sturdy and much cheaper (the MX-1 is already on the lower price range of good machines).

Jo ich fang gerade an Griffe zu bauen hast du nen Tipp ob es nh öffentliche Werkstatt gibt (in München)?

[@wurfttobias]

Ich hab nur mal was vom Makerspace gehört (da könntest du auch welche auf der CNC fräsen). Wenn ich google finde ich noch so was wie das HEI...

[@wixwixwix]

Ich kann leider die Holzarten schlecht verstehen. Kannst du mir die bitte nochmal durchgeben was du hier verwendet hast?

[@wurfttobias]

Bei den kleineren Griffen Rubinie, Ahorn und Ulme. Bei den größeren Griffen Rubinie, europäische Walnuss und beim dunklen Holz weiß ich nicht was es ist.

[@wixwixwix]

@@wurfttobias vielen Dank. Hast du ansonsten Tipps wie und wo ich am besten solche Holzstücke beziehen kann?

[@wurfttobias]

@@wixwixwix am besten mal bei ner lokalen Schreinerei anfragen, die haben oft Reststücke die man günstig oder geschenkt bekommt.

[@senorblondie]

I thought you were in New Zealand not Germany? 🤔

[@wurfttobias]

We used to live in New Zealand, but we moved back to Germany last year.

[@senorblondie]

@@wurfttobias That's cool. My grandmother came to the States from Schwarzwald after World War 1. The Frankenjura is a fun place to climb...

[@wurfttobias]

@@senorblondie It's a small world: I grew up in the black forest...

"Promo SM" 🙈

[@wurfttobias]

I'm not promoting anything or paying for any promotion. This video is getting some weirdly increased traffic today from people who are apparently not interested in this topic... where did you see it being promoted?
