"Without DVD ROM mechanism" 4:47

[@kerimmededovic1397]

He means slider

[@manickn6819]

Decent project. I scrapped enough stuff recently to build something that machines. This has inspired me to give it a go, time permitting.

[@CreativeScience]

Thanks for your valuable comment ☺️

[@xConundrumx]

See now this I like, most of your colleagues go for simple stuff with obscene amounts of hot glue. That's neat to get some clever ideas but seriously, hot glue? This is a pretty neat package, well thought out, even with a cool PCB. Thumbs up and subbed.

[@CreativeScience]

thank you very much xConundrumx :)

[@xConundrumx]

No really thank you, been inching my way into CNCs for a few months now to aid with some projects. But before I dole out 2K or something on a machine I want to mess around a bit and get to grips with it all. Something like this helps a lot. If only just to work as a stepping stone in getting from some code in Arduino IDE to a real world application.

[@CreativeScience]

:)

[@macteh7298]

awsome dude, thanks for all the help, the only one video out of the 100 that really is useful.

[@ted_van_loon]

you could connect a 3d pen (these often cost about 10 to 15$) and make some small changes to the servo code and add some wires and a code to override the button of the pen and you have a small 3d printer

[@CreativeScience]

TeD van Loon, You have great idea!! thanks for your suggestion, i will try your method. :) thank you very much.

[@jayrajmakariye1216]

Sir I have made a PCP you given the diagram in your description I setup all components on it but after adding all materials it it doesn't work so after code also it is not working so please tell me where I am going wrong please reply me

[@calvinsiemers4684]

this is literally one of the coolest thing well done great build quality!

Your work is so clean. I love this machine

[@carloslopes1140]

4:47 I though you didn't need the dvd "mechanism" ... appart from the bait, nice video

[@topsecret1837]

Carlos Lopes By mechanism he probably meant the writing motor, stepper motors are a little more generic than that.

[@joeblow7374]

Those are not DVD motors, but look like floppy disk (remember those?) motors.

[@QBarszcz]

Haha

[@stuartbassett3807]

@@joeblow7374 They are dvd or cd rom motors, floopy motors have shorter shaft.

[@engineglue]

You're an inspiration. Nice work.

[@gangleweed]

I think this would lend itself to laser burning as the laser doesn't put force on the weak mechanism.

[@sachindeshpande1]

I don't see limit switch in the design. How do you calibrate or set xy origin?

[@k4rec4]

Looks nice... Wonder why you didn't test printing on an actual DVD media. Also, there's any problem on painting? The designs were always lines, no figure was inked up.

[@HanZie82]

Who the heck still uses flathead screws these days? I thought they were only for fixtures so it looks a bit better... But all in all, I WANT THAT TOO! Should have some ol cd/dvd players laying around. I might just build one. :-) Thanks for the vid.

[@smultimediasg]

Very accurate. If we use vynil cutter instead of pen it is possible to cut vynil as vynil cutter machine. If so . can u make a tutorial that cnc as vynil cutter plotter?

[@zaprodk]

Yes you can use this as a *Vinyl (Not 'vynil') -cutter if you mount a knife and find a way to control the pressure.

[@smultimediasg]

How to control the pressure. I dont know well. Pls make a project of vinyl cutter plotter .

[@devideepkumar9466]

Please provide circuit for cutting forex board sheets. Can a laser cutter be attached instead of the pen to serve the purpose?

[@arkantosfree]

Creative Science, thanks for answering, I did the whole project but I have problems the servo does not work and of the two engines only one responds and the other sometimes, what could be the problem? ? I did all of his video I have the same pcb's and nothing ... greetings from Chile

[@wernerboden239]

Ok, it is a crappy machine, but building something like this is fun and an immense learning experience. I built quite a large 3d printer with basic parts from a hardware store. However, I bought a stepper controller board, linear rails, trapezoidal screws, nema17 steppers + drivers , from china. Yep .. it is a crappy machine to look at as well, but it did do a great job. So , looking at this allways brings a smile to my face.

[@hrithiksable9496]

Will you suggest me any idea How can I make it over voice control??

[@tompayne8863]

I guess it's a cute science project. No practical use that I can see. I like the link to jlcpcb!

Brilliant !!! BIG HUG TO YOU FROM IRAQ ❤

Thanks 😊

[@wendifyplus]

how much juice is flowing the stepper motors? because me i thought of using other stepper motors i salvaged from an old printer

[@sakibian01]

The steel parts you used, what are they? Just angle steel bars or something else

[@afonsosantos_53]

How many current does use? Can I connect it to a usb phone charger?

[@sulesharad]

will it be readily available duly assembled. if yes what will be the cost.

[@r00yce]

The 7805 voltage regulator is used wrong. There are no in- and output caps according to the datasheet

[@mdnizamuddinansari6459]

you should also demonstrate with circular or parabolic figure.i think its liitle bit hard for machine

[@richard7crowley]

Where did you source the specialty aluminum extrusions. Like the "double-T" at 03:31? What about those spring-loaded thread followers?
