beautiful indeed... i just don't see the "at home" part, but ok

[@AmeelBeesony]

from their site, it appears you can get their cnc at home for 3600 euros :/

[@burggerbig102]

@@AmeelBeesony there are cheaper options

[@slappyfrost]

​ cheaper but precision is going to be heavily affected by the quality of the cnc you're gonna buy so I really recommend to people to be careful with this. Always get information about an specific cnc and a review if it's possible before buying it

[@Jakefrc]

3018 CNC, $200 and will do this job

[@icequark1568]

I have been getting amazing results from this machine for over a month. It consistently allows us to run a full prototype iteration in a single day from start to finish.

[@rishinpatra3888]

Now that’s a PCB making porn ...

[@creacionescreando3448]

The price is exorbitant without counting the costs of taxes, customs etc., you need to sell millions of printed circuits to recover the investment, in China there are very cheap machines with excellent finishes, it can even be done at a much lower cost. The quality mostly depends on the user as they have the parameters and above all patience to work. Thanks for the video, it's entertaining.

[@krzysztof6123]

I think that by professional he meant the quality of pcb's and not the aim to generate profit from manufacturing them.

[@siddharthmalani]

The aim is to do some very rapid prototyping. You could test that design the same day. It may not count to much but if you were to average 10 units of finished product the following year per day priced at say 100 dollars then effectively it has cost you nothing. It could take upto 6-10 days to get a pcb where I live. If there are couple of iterations then this extends to a month.

[@seeithappen1]

WoW that works really cool. When I remember the days I was etching a printed circuit board with an acid. We have come a long way.

[@Lennings82]

what kinda cnc maschine do you use that can feel the surface of the PCB card??

[@jtordjman]

That's not a pcb, that's a jewel !

[@eross21]

so does it have to be pcb masking? or will screen printing ink work the same way. i’d love to do interesting colors

[@nixso2]

Dobry den, vidim ze pouzivate aplikaciu od firmy Vectric. Dokaze aplikacia spracovavat aj gerber data? Verzie z roku 2018 mali problem spravne importovat aj bezne vektorove pdf data.

How wide is the router bit? 0,1 mm or 0,2 mm is much smaller then I see here.

[@rmasso38]

I don't see what vacuum you're using on your website, can you name a suitable attachment?

[@wesolyyyy3501]

I have cheap CNC 3018 from China, what i've upgrated greatly (endstops, new spindle, new rails etc.). With using spiral mills (like on video) with angle 10 degrees and 0.1mm tip... thats pretty hard to dont destroy this tip. What mills are you using? It looks like pretty big tip in comparision to mine. Now i understand im using too thin ones.

[@projects3196]

Hi May I ask you about the name of the program that is designing the map

[@Antoniosp10]

Very, very beautiful! Awesome!

[@weirdsciencetv4999]

Very nicely done!!! Are you able to do double sided or even plated through holes? Vias are easy enough with rivets

[@jakobfrei1121]

Does anyone know the name of the first song?

[@audreymirindi3186]

please i also would like to know what is that machine you use to design PCBs...

[@ShR33k]

Although I'm very impressed, £2,999 (excluding vat) seems a bit steep for a "at home" milling machine. This would be ideal for someone that's constantly making them, for a small business I would say. The finish and method does look damn impressive though.

[@neplatnyudaj110]

Small business would get them etched, drilled, masked and tinned for $5 a piece at local PCB shop or for $1 a piece from china. The only reason to use this is when you already have a CNC and want to try to do a few boards.

[@cucumberworks]

If you want to prototype fast and run a few iterations a day then you have to go this way. This is the 3D printing equivalent of PCB making. For the final product it would make more sense to order from someone else.

[@cucumberworks]

@@BrightBlueJim Well I think you can see the PCB milling as a bonus. It is really hard to get PCB milling right on a CNC. It looks like a really high quality CNC for other stuff as well.

[@infested_pigeon]

Hi, can you buy dragon 2020?

[@lensherman6242]

Amazing cut and depth precision, but no board without plated-through holes can be called "professional" IMO.

[@alejandroperez5368]

Not every board needs to be double sided to be considered professional

[@ESTEBANTMAN]

your milling machine is awesome

[@handlemissing]

So satisfying to watch.

[@JFD1971]

simply amazing!

[@denisernestomedina6257]

[@Penfold8]

What if you tin the board before adding the solder mask? Would this help a little against corrosion from leaky capacitors or a battery?

[@davidhaney1394]

doh

[@diyexplorer8728]

Seamless. Perfection.

[@nikhdzia]

watching this is so pleasant, I just watch your videos for entertainment.

[@AmaznJ]

Absolutely beautiful

[@Penfold8]

Why do you use an engraving point to take off solder mask as opposed to just using a solder pad template while curing the mask?

[@killincards]

this requires no materials outside of their sources, really like the spring bit and not having to worry about transparency.

[@MadLabZ]

Very classy!!!

Hello, can you tell me how do you export the PCB diagrams to Cut2D? I've seen some of your videos, and it seems that you're using Sprint Layout 6, but I wasn't able to export to a "vector" format. Also, if in any case you use KiCad or something similar, I pose the same question about the export. Thanks!

[@alejandroperez5368]

Did you solve your doubt? I think they are using the bitmap tracing option in cut2D. I'm also aware of the SVG or DXF export from Flatcam but I haven't tried it yet...

[@TheCalibso]

This is a pices of art

[@smartech3013]

The result is very nice.

[@luisalbertoibanez3104]

Do you have equipment suppliers in Mexico?

[@NicoProps]

could you elaborate a little on this, what tools/bits were used, cutting depths, other settings? I wouldn't mind giving this a go.

[@XantheFIN]

Mostly you don't find answer for those questions you now even asking than going alone and setting it up by yourself by testing and errors learning.. i mean asking for cutting depth is so... what thickness boards you gonna use? It so much depending many things you can't just multiply what other one is using. CNC settings are for your own setup you need tweak yourself always.

Yes you can, CNC3018 = 200$ { amnazon}, DXF2 gcode = free GBRL control = free [ for 3018 ] & KicCad = Free.

[@rbtx99]

Yes, you can. I use my CNC occasionally to make PCBs for simple and urgent projects but I have not been able to achieve such precision (track thinkers and gap width). Perhaps there is some room for improvement if I dedicate a few days to refining the process.

[@user-kt1uh4ji5c]

Sir please sent PCB of rc helicopter photos

[@cikaristia304]

thank u

[@noanyobiseniss7462]

I wonder if you make a stencil of the traces and then cover the traces with wax and then do the solder mask if that will alleviate the need for trying to remove the mask with another process that could damage the part easily. The wax can easily be removed after the solder mask is cured and should not adhere to it.

[@user-yz8do8vu1s]

or you can use actual masks of pads so places where soldermask shouldn't exist don't get UV light and harden. After that you can wash the excess off.

[@tayyipgurlek1787]

what kind of home, lol

[@88mark8888]

If you rotate them 45 degrees, I think 12 or 15 (?) will fit, instead of 8 💡

You have to manually add them, and that's time and cost. In another video they have, they are shown applying them.
