They came out well. Love the 3D printed soft jaws - I'll have to copy that.

[@TMonteiro.]

Hey again man! Awesome looking part! Share feeds and speeds plz. Your side finish( from another video) worked wonders on my cnc.

[@addisman90]

This guy knows what hes at

[@domenicnc2688]

I like that somebody make clio parts ❤

[@electronicpresentationEP3D]

Dude that z axis backplate is so cool

[@Beeeaned]

Cheers! Just added a video with a few clips from when I made it 😎

[@RustyInventions-wz6ir]

Just found your channel and subscribed. Very nice work

[@Terryk105]

Awesome job

[@fred-san]

Congrat's Good 'continuation'.

[@jayinmi3706]

No pics on the car? Came out pretty clean. Nice work.

[@sarahbonnet8003]

Hi , really nice job ! you can be proud of yourself ! i have a couple of question , what are you using to control the CNC , Mach3 or something similar ?and where can i find the probing stuff , it look so nice do you have a link or something ? thanks

[@nicoloroggero3392]

Sache codice gbrl si utilizza per installare il xyz probe?

[@skydrone1980]

Губки на 3д принтере, шикарная идея!

[@vasyapupken]

ага. деталь аж пляшет от радости.

[@MTFreestyler]

Which kind of controller do you use? I'm thinking of getting one of those probes but not sure how to use them with gsender

[@PWN3TU]

I'm just getting my own CNC set up to be able to handle aluminum and I'm curious...Did you need an indexed spindle in order to do the threading pass? If so, did you DIY that on the spindle you have or did the spindle already have that feature when you bought it?

[@NewScope8]

You may have mixed up rigid tapping with single point thread milling. The latter does not require indexed spindle. By the way using a chamfer bit to do the threaded hole chamfering is ridiculous. With the time waiting for the bit to touch the height sensor, he would have manually deburr 10 holes already.

[@eackerw85]

What endmill are you using for finishing? Those sides look clean AF!!!

[@Beeeaned]

It's an 8mm DLC coated three flute 😎

[@sidemountedracing]

This is nice, like very nice, searching home built diy cnc brought me here, any more info on the cnc itself?

[@sidemountedracing]

Ahhh ok a bit of searching later, i find PrintNC info

[@Beeeaned]

Aye, fairly standard PrintNC build - The website/wiki might be a little cumbersome or out of date (I haven’t looked for a while). If you’re on Discord, drop in the PrintNC server - It’s very active with info 😎

[@vasyapupken]

14:20 - your spindle ramp up time is longer than dwell time in CNC control software. it is not good. they must be at least equal otherwise it can cause too much load on the tool at a start.

[@Merdinoyt]

Hey there, Nice work, looks great. If it possible to show us your Machine? I want build once for myself and search some functional Considerations?? Thanks and go forward with your Channel.

[@Beeeaned]

I’m yet to do a complete video of it, it’s a pretty standard build and you can see some of it in the ball nut plate video. If you join the PrintNC discord there’s a lot of help and guidance ✌️

[@arbjful]

What CAM software are you using? The surface finish is mirror like

[@Beeeaned]

Just Fusion360 with Post Process All to handle the tool changes.

[@franck7422]

C'est dommage que vous ne montrez pas votre CNC, seulement la tête avec sa fraise....

[@rogue277]

Why does the x axis sound like a machine gun

[@user-fi9ht4wk3j]

What CAM software did you use?

[@Beeeaned]

Just Fusion for CAD and CAM, Post Process All plugin to restore rapids and handle the tool change stuff.

[@user-fi9ht4wk3j]

@@Beeeaned it would be great if you make a video about cam modelling your parts

[@gabsshop4966]

@@Beeeaned Ouuuuuhhhhh Can you point out to the plugins to restore rapids?

[@Mister_G]

@@Beeeaned Thanks for the heads-up on 'Post Process All' 👍

[@marccretten]

whats the specs on the CNC?

[@Beeeaned]

It’s a relatively basic PrintNC build. PicoBOB controller, Nema 23’s, 2.2kw spindle. 1230x900mm work area.

[@LarsDunemark]

It doesn't sound like your spindle is up to speed before it starts the cut at: 14:25, do your controller read the spindle/VFD feedback speed and wait? I have the same issue and I a change in my postprocessor in fusion to add a M0 msg at all speed changes require user input to continue the operation when the VFD is at correct speed. (kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2qxnXqAr6-NjpYsi=tO8QCZlPFgPc2PGf) Great video, looks like you got really great finish.

[@ihzanursyahbana7773]

there is no bit cooler, coolant, or lubricant, while trimming a metal surface?, wow

[@imqqmi]

Tool wears quicker but it's possible in aluminium, even mild steel.

[@vasyapupken]

it called dry machining ) some material/tool coating combinations doesn't require coolant. it's OK.

[@vasyapupken]

@@imqqmi yes and no. in some cases (very hard materials) using liquid coolant can reduce life of carbide tools because of thermal shock.
