You’re correct when you say “no one is showing off machines like this, maybe they don’t have a KZbin channel or they don’t have time…” I work with an Anderson Exxact 51MH(Multi-Head) every day at my day job. It blew my mind the first time I saw it in action. Now, seeing yours, that is incredible. Your new multi-head unit blows ours out of the water. Our combined Rapid speed is 944in/min. So on a single Axis we get 450in/minute. I thought that was fast till I saw how incredibly fast everything moves on your machine. Ours also has a moving table and that is a sight to be seen in person. All that being said, thank you. Do what you do best, and be yourself. Show this machine off to the world and monopolize on the fact your showing off cutting edge technology. Your enthusiasm and love for CNC machining helped me so much when I first started working with CNC Routers, and I know it will help so many other people. Keep up the great work, and congratulations on the new machine. This is a HUGE new chapter in your life, as well as your business. Thank you for your knowledge.

[@cutting-it-close]

Thank you so much!! That means a lot to me, I would love to come visit your shop one day, shoot me an email

[@armbot1000]

Try and find a video of a newer heian, you won’t believe how fast they move

[@mdcurtis1968]

Man I hope you sell tons of product! Keep that enthusiasm. What I wouldn't give to be young again!

[@yukonatelier]

Really really really cool! 😀 Super cool, thanks for the tour!

[@tristanrhines1613]

That CNC Router is Awesome. I have run a machine like a few times and they are super versatile. The split table really fun to use. My work we cut acrylic and polypropylene mostly as well as cutting Trespa material. Our machine didn't have the dual head as we usually were cutting one off parts from full 5x10 sheets of material

[@Nunak91]

Fantastic machine! Your passion and awe are contagious. Love it.

[@anthonyferreira5233]

That is nice, I'm pleased for you. Awesome machine. Thanks for the peak

[@franciscochapa8877]

Awesome video! Thank you and Congratulations!

[@joefox9383]

That clip at 0:07 scared the hell of of me. I can just imagine that table coming forward and him having no way or time to get out of the way. My Anderson rapids at 2400ipm so I'm use to seeing the the amount of space you have covered in about 1 second. Its nice to see your enthusiasm. I remember when I used to get that excited over a new machine. Enjoy!

[@radridz3]

Ryan great video. Glad you like your new machine. It was my pleasure visiting your facility and installing your Lamborghini 🙂 Looking forward to seeing your growth from here. If you need anything let me know.....

Bad Ass!! We are also in Texas! Maybe one day I can come check out this beast of a machine! I'm barely looking at getting my second CNC, but I love working with them.

[@cutting-it-close]

Lets make it happen

[@zoozolplexOne]

Cool !!!

[@hyperformancellc]

Its amazing how much nicer the build quality is from CR Onsrud compared to the DMS Teton 5 axiis that I bought. your right though no one makes videos about these types of machines.

[@bluediamond7671]

Coming from another former wrestler, I’m very impressed with your enthusiasm, drive for more and success. Plus, you’re very animated with your videos! Lol. But I do appreciate your videos as I am a fellow woodworker and business owner. Keep shooting buddy

[@woodbe5311]

Nice toy you have there :) best wishes from Portugal.

[@FloweringElbow]

Not too shabby. Big thanks for sharing, have been making my first CNC, over on my channel. It's reasonably big (for a first build) - or so I thought ;) After crashing it plenty, and popping cutting tools here there and everywhere with lots of beginner user errors - watching those two heads moving towards each other - well, lets just say it sets the pulse going a bit quicker even to watch on a video.

[@jeremysumpter8939]

Lol I just finished watching some of your videos then saw your comment here. Good job on. Your cnc, incredible build.

[@christopherbrown6152]

I worked in a shop with one of these, we had a gantry with vacuum cups to load/unload the tables.

[@csikoba4725]

Nice,also Vacuum Suction Cups are cool time/money savers,you can cut thru the material.

[@homezero]

Good luck with that machine. I worked for a company that got a dual table Onsrud just like that one. Understand we got one of the first ones on the market, but we had ongoing issues and the more issues we had the more Onsrud wasn't there to help. If I remember right, it went on over a year. Buyer Beware!

[@jamesbannerman4804]

We have several Onsruds. 3 axis and 5 axis machines. They are good machines but, we use them for aluminum plates and extrusions.

[@cutting-it-close]

They are build rock solid, still learning with mine

[@iwannaapple7190]

"For those of you that are big into the CNC world"...Hilarious! You just got a subscriber just for that... Ohhh, wait a minute. I already am a subscriber.

[@rirsz]

I'm minding my business here trying to decide to pull the trigger on a genmitsu 3018. Mind blown!

[@robertschoemer1250]

Look thru the archives, Hillyer made something similar in the 1980's. Carousel tool changer and all. only was for cutting metal.

[@jackfrost-fu7hz]

Where do you sell the cutting boards, how much are they? What other products do you make?

[@jeffbob4660]

wow...I built my first cnc in 2009...I used the jgro design with the materials I had and this thing was a workhorse with a 16" x 32" envelope that allowed me to convert 500 golden tee arcade games from stand-up to pedestal style machines. Word of mouth had vendors from up to 800 miles brining their stand-up games to me to convert. No where near your $...I would convert for $500 per machine.

[@kelleycoon2070]

To learn CNC what would you recommend for software

[@trevorcreaser7519]

Beauty CNC! I have an Anderson Spectra 510 that I use for cabinetry in my business. What software are you running the onsrud on and did you get rid of your other shop sabre?

[@cutting-it-close]

AlphaCam exports toolpaths, aspire draws my vectors and I did sell one of them but kept one!

[@alpsalish]

@@cutting-it-close why did you go alpha cam? Cost?

[@JustinDepew]

Wait, red oak cutting board? Isn't that all splintery and open grained?

[@Larzag0]

what finishing bit is he using?

[@bluemotioncnc]

Nice Video! You took a risk of being cut in half while sitting in the frame ! Hopefully you had the power off?

[@fazer12779]

Hello, what software do you use, Vectric - Vcarve? Also how much is this a month to buy?

[@smartassist9700]

Size fuse to run it? 30amp, 50Amp?

[@davidhemmerdinger2053]

I make cabinets with a cnc for a living and I thought our single head was the shit. Until I saw this video. On this machine you have to manually load every sheet right?

[@parentsdisapointment6048]

WOW, couldn't help but count how many times you used the word "cool" LOL. I can tell you're excited and I would be too. So here is the tally. 12 Cool, 15 Really cool, 1 really really cool and 1 really really really really cool hahaha, there was also 2 cools that had to do with temperature. Congrats on the really cool machine 😄

[@akivaweil5066]

I have a chrome plugin that can search through the transcripts, and he said it 33 times.

[@cutting-it-close]

😂

[@franciscochapa8877]

If you don't mind me asking, what made you choose Onsrud over the other big names such as Biesse, Homag, SCM, Thermwood, etc.

[@cutting-it-close]

I wanted made in the USA and I really liked their dual head model, usually when you go with the other companies, they try to sell you their internal systems that all of their other machines they make run off of. Then they get you looped into their brand. I like Onsrud because all they do is CNC they are not trying to pitch you on something else.

[@jessicalane107]

So. BAD. ASS!

[@darkwinter6028]

Eh… it’s a nice enough machine. I certainly wouldn’t kick it out of the shop. 😉However… ATC functionality like that is standard on production-level machines; and at least for VMCs I’ve only ever seen it done really differently on an oddball Chiron ultra-high-speed 5-axis machine where they had the tools mounted surrounding the spindle (it would just slap up to the Z home position, and switch tools with two “petals” of the tool magazine - the whole process took about a second). Router ATCs that I’ve seen can also mount the tool magazine off to the side of the table; and just do a rapid move with the head to go grab another tool. Machines that are more entry-level or prototype focused is where you tend to find a lack of a tool changer. Dual head & table is a nice flexibility feature to have, especially if your shop isn’t dedicated to one single product line. I have seen it advertised on a few other machines. The thing that gives me a bit of pause, however, is the use of steel weldments for the machine frame. Unless specific treatments are applied; they can warp (both immediately during manufacturing and over time afterwards); and tend to “ring” from vibrations caused by the cutting process. I’ll have to presume that a major manufacturer like Onsrud will have stress-relieved the frame prior to grinding the rail mounting points. I did note a bit of a ringing tone when you tapped on the frame with your knuckles… you might want to grab a wooden or soft metal hammer and gently tap on it. If it rings like a bell; you might want to apply some dampening material like epoxy-granite to the frame. This is why cast iron is usually used for machine tool frames; instead of steel: it doesn’t ring.

[@cutting-it-close]

Thank you for all of that info, I learned a lot from this post

[@alpsalish]

I agree with this all being relatively standard. Worked around 3 and 5 axis DMS machines. Once you enter a certain level in the cnc world they share many of those QOL improvments. What blows my mind are some of the 5 axis metal cnc machines.

[@karllautman]

1. What does this machine do that can't be done with two separate machines of the same speed? 2. Why aren't the boards cut out on the finishing pass, avoiding a separate cut out operation?

[@smartassist9700]

How thick is your concrete floor?

[@dennismacwilliams196]

So cool, What kind of dust extractor system do you use for such a large CNC.

[@cutting-it-close]

I have a 42ft tall dust collector, I did a video on it

[@dennismacwilliams196]

Ya I saw it. I was just wondering if you need A separate one Because of how large the new cnc is. Just asking what do you do with all the saw dust ?

[@cutting-it-close]

@@dennismacwilliams196 Hustle it anywhere I can, lots of farmers and ranchers neaby

[@dennismacwilliams196]

@@cutting-it-close cool I've seen shop's making pallets out of them, I think That is such a cool idea. Thanks for getting back to me. That's really cool Also your videos are supper with much detail in them. Anyway thanks again. One off thing do you hunt ?

Yes I do

[@bestyoutubernonegraternumber1]

Bro 1:50 what if it cut you right in half right there? Do you even know how empty my life would be without your videos?

[@cutting-it-close]

The machine was off, my life would be empty without you watching my videos as well!

[@tstanley01]

You must be making a metric shit ton (Official NIST Measurement) of cutting boards to buy a machine like this. A video about your actual business structure would be interesting.

[@garretehrick6137]

Totally would love to hear more on this side of things.

[@TrolloTV]

And what would be the benefit of owning this machine over just getting two normal single spindle ones? Didn’t quite catch that

[@franciscochapa8877]

Right off the bat probably more efficient, practical and less shop space. To have two machines you would have to be running from one to the other, this one just one pc control. Either way, id take any setup any day of the week :)

[@lpsg405]

Dang. Not a single mention of servo size, nm HP curve or rapids ability. Is it rack N pinion, ballscrews or what? Nice machine though.

[@cutting-it-close]

I am going to go over that on another video, did not want to get into the details too much yet, I do one for my fellow CNC nerds at a later date! It is a Ballscrew though.

[@jojo-yo1sk]

bro, how much you buy it?

[@aydngulgun8936]

but why not get 2 machine instead of 1 with two heads?

[@martinoamello3017]

Maybe I'll trade in my crappy old scroll saw and get a few of these. I don't suppose my 20 amp shop would power a couple of these would it? Probably not.. I used to work running a ginormous extrusion machine with 880 boxes everywhere. Don't stand in a bucket of water and stick your fingers in one.

[@Alex-dl2px]

Круто!!!

[@CncWoodProjects]

WOW what a monstrous cnc congrats! nice machine. My CNC for hobby it's ridiculous (120Kg/250 pounds without the table) you can see in my channel (you say no one make videos of cnc, i make noob videos of my cnc).

[@ArcticSeaCamel]

Suddenly my massive DIY-CNC feels tiny. 😵🤪

[@Firesoccerpicks]

What are you currently using this machine for?

[@WalkingEng]

The image of you sitting in the crush zone had me cringing - hope you had the lockouts on.

[@js_76labas28]

U know when u use vacuum you don’t need tabs. Or maybe I don’t understand something about your system. And u also shot look in raise vacuum system then u don’t need to Cory as much about messing up your table or the tool they called vacuum pods. I had the chance of working with 5axis machine and it had that system and the worst thing that could happen is you mess up the pod that made out of plastic. But love your videos.

[@dennygrant8148]

Final got your self a real machine rather then the toys you had before. So funny to see you being amazed by all the basic functions that your machine has. Basically the majority of cnc world is professional shops that run machine like this, maybe not dual head, but ATC, heavy frames, big HSK spindles. There is this weird KZbin world full guys running toys, calling them self pros, giving out BS advice. You should have gone out into the working world for a few years and work with one of these machines before being a expert, but I guess your getting there now. I went to 6 years of school, worked for 10 years running machines and lots of there engineering related stuff before I started my own CNC business. Also like most guys that own machine like yours I could rip that machine apart and put it back together again. When feeding your family depends on that machine you better learn how to work on every part of it your self because when it goes down there no time to wait for a tech. Also you have 40 hp vacuum pump and ATC pretty sure you can cut all the way though those and not have to trim off the bottom, actually if you use a 1/2 Compression I bet you can get a board with out a tool change on the outline.

[@swp466]
