Quick tip for securing your aluminium sheets on the router bed. i really struggeled to get thin sheets fixed properly use (test with different types) painters tape on both sides - worpiece and table. apply superglue to one side and a little spray of activator on the other. press and hold together for 10 sec. on some tapes the glue does not stick. some tapes do not stick great to wood (covered my base with some epoxy and i use 3m painters tape. this works like a charm. strong hold and easy to remove keep on great work

[@Mike-sd5ww]

After building a very plasticky metal "fabricator" you build a very metal-ly plastic "fabricator". I'm totally on board with this.

[@Noah_Bisch]

That was the most PERFECT first layer

[@emil92056]

I almost had to close my eyes every time a shiny aluminum piece got clamped down in the vice; it's time to print some jaw guards.

[@vannoo67]

I winced every time a part moved in the vice when he was drilling it. Doesn't appear to have affected the quality of the build tho.

[@glennrmarks]

Now it's time for an all-metal CNC machine. Great job on the 3D printer. I find it amusing that you spent a lot of effort in making the print bead assembly as light as possible but yet the print table moves just as much and as fast as the print head.

[@MrManta2012]

I read on the internet...The ideal router bits to work on aluminum are straight bits and carbide-tipped. You need to use 3/8 inch wide cut. Do not use smaller bits since they tend to get hot and soon aluminum shavings clog up their blades then ultimately stop cutting.. hope it helps

[@muh1h1]

If power supply is properly made it would have ground connected to its case, and power supply is definitely connected to chassis.

The part at 10:41 made me smile. Why didn't you use 6020 aluminum extrusion? It seemed like it took a lot of time to build it for your base by yourself. Did your supplier not offer it? Or did you need something specific that 6020 doesn't offer?

[@colinfielder6695]

[@MarinusMakesStuff]

Oh my this is so cool. I just hope he didn't forget any SPACERSSSSSSS. Ps. since it's full-metal, I would use DirectDrive for the extruder. That way you don't need a bowden tube and the cable management is even easier, and it improves retraction a lot.

[@boblewis5558]

Awesome build! Superb looking, and operating unit. Gorgeous print quality for just the second print example too. Here's a little challenge: why not DIY anodise the plain aly CNC parts ... In black or red. THEN engrave them THROUGH the anodising into bare aly. I made a hi-fi amp front panel around 40 years ago that even today looks brand, spanking new and just as fantastic as the day it was made. I had the anodising done as a favour by a professional firm, but have my own since.

[@prisedeterre1356]

3d printing a CNC , the using to CNC to make itself all metal , then machining parts with the cnc to make a 3d printer... Big brain energy right here

[@Jontek2]

Awesome! You should raise the Z-motors up a few mm so it doesn’t touch the frame. This will help against vibrations and noise.

[@swamppifi6186]

You done an excellent job , well done. any chance of plans for all the parts. The one thing I would change is to add a set of wheels that run on the opposite side of the rail that the table wheels run on, this is to prevent the table lifting up, especially when printing tall top heavy objects...really needs to lock that table in position.

[@TheDanbulance]

That turned out fantastic. I would just recommend putting some grommets around your wiring where it enters the case. Would hate to have them cut

[@jj6528]

Another great video, I highly recommend not using your calipers as a scribe though (3:30). Each time you do this, they become slightly less accurate. I know it's often annoying to grab a scribe when the caliper seems to work, and you probably have enough youtube money to buy another pair of calipers regularly, but it's still a good habit to have.

[@djkacho]

Why not use a corexy design or design in which the bed moves up/down. Since you do large prints a small increase in speed would save a lot of time ?

[@Lozoot2]

What an interesting setup for the bed! I guess it's heavy enough to not need any bottom retaining wheels

[@TheBendixSA]

Is it considered proper technique to stop the metal blade at the bottom of the cut before lifting? And what are the benefits of doing so?

That blade goes through Extruded profiles like butter. When will you make a CoreXY super fast 3d printer? You are amazing nevertheless. I am curious why you don't use corner T-Nut brackets and prefer to drill the profiles?
