with that amount of work I'm surprised you didn't use ball screws... Great job.

[@scottvandenhout1796]

Love to see some drawings and Bill of material on this

[@CNC-Time-Lapse]

Nice video. Very cool to see custom parts. I think you might need a dust collection system though. Seeing chips all over your rails and screw was making my eye twitch. lol

[@warrenking1815]

You did a great job on this, I entend to do something very similar with my 3018. My goal is to wind up with a 5050. Great job.

[@jeanclaudefridule3093]

Hello Would it be possible for you to give us the plans and the necessary list of parts to buy in order to be able to manufacture the same machine. PS: you did a great job to make this machine. Best regards

[@The_Seal77]

I agree, would like the break down what parts and possibly the plans. I have a 3080 myself im wanting to upgrade.

[@incubatork]

looks like a good upgrade, may I suggest you use less stickout on the end mills, it will make things more accurate and also cut down on a lot of vibration you are having. I have the genmitsu 3020 with linear rails all standard so far, looking to upgrade the motor to 500 or 800w brushless soon, More detail on your upgrades would help both for people wanting to upgrade and also attract subscribers as they would come away with some useful information very lacking at the moment. Good usefull information attracts subscribers. If I learn something while here its worth subscribing for more, as is I learnt very little, sorry, hope you take this as usefull criticism.

[@GiauDIY]

Thank you, I will absorb your comments

[@jonathanwright1507]

I just purchased a 2023 (3018), the Mostics 3018, full aluminium, the vibration comes down to the hollow aluminium & the stock bars for the gangtree that hold the spindle assembly in place & a cheap motor to get you going. I cured alot of the vibration by turning all the bolt holes into tread locked studs, so I can double nut holding it all together without stripping the aluminium threads. As for a 52mm motor you can now but one with for a 3018 which is identical & just has the 52mm motor mount, the stock cap bolts are not supplied with washers or anit-shake washers, perhaps they should but Allen key bolts are over-rated & tend to strip for the tightnesds you need to stoip them coming undone without anything to lock them in place! All the rails are linear, just a different shape & tensile strength - there is hardly any play in my CNC & makes accurate PCB's after my mods have been applied.

A very nice job sir, very well done.

[@mynameisprivate158]

What would be very useful, provide your cut files for the upgrade, a list of parts, even amazon affiliate links ( could make a bit of money from them)

[@davesnothere8859]

tap magic is magic

[@incubatork]

I think I would have left the bit of aluminium that you cut off round the bed, as it did not interfere with the movement it would always give extra size for clamping etc.

[@danapatelzick594]

A little bit of detail would be helpful. You did two parts where holes need to be aligned so you don't have binding or out of square or a mix. Those are the things that somebody doing this would need.

[@adrianharrison5208]

Nice build!

[@fuoman100]

Can you provide the files for the pieces you made and also a parts list. Thank you for a great upgrade idea.

[@robertoklein6265]

Aluminium works fine, nice job, well done!🙌

[@stevec5000]

Where can we find a machine that cuts metal like that?

[@hecyea9353]

Very nice! Excelente

[@fraxz88]

Like a boss! Nice work, I'm trying to figure out how you relocated for those middle holes on the front and back frame.

[@teesHQ]

hi great job , have u maybe cad files (fusion 360) for all your upgrades can u share them, i think that's is one of the best upgrades for 3018 i seen on YT.

[@steveu235]

Nice job but your end mill is out too far

[@samuelcook9196]

What kind of lubricant do you use when cutting aluminum there

[@osgeld]

MMMMM That chatter sounds so good

[@Festivejelly]

Why use those really weak couplers? Why not use some kind of spider coupler?

[@micuhdd]

Do you use the original stepper motors or you have upgraded those as well?

[@valtersouzaribeiroribeiro9534]

Good

[@muhamadfikri590]

how much diameter shaft do you use?

[@xXxSilentGamingxXx]

Nice job, why use flexible coupling?

[@DaniMutaqin]

Can you share the design for all set this custom?

[@DA-jw6nm]

Why a solid plate for the bed?

[@danapatelzick594]

What is the reason for the final trim?

[@onlooker251]

Can you put the drawings of the parts for us to download please? 🙂

[@karimmahi1071]

Waths the power of this machin

[@naingaunglwin833]

Spindle motor's rpm and Watt?

[@linearbearingMYT]

How can I contact you？, can I provide the linear system parts in the video, I want to cooperate with you！You won't be disappointed.

[@robzarrella7470]

HI IM ROB I NEE SOME INFO IS THERE A PLACE TO GET ENGRAVING MACHINE 2418 LEAD SCREW RODS

[@incubatork]

aliexpress, you can order to length and size, same as most any cnc upgrade item or even replacement for broken parts. FYI writing in All capitals is classed as shouting in chats/messages and frowned upon.

Sell me one?

[@jankesalez]

I need the z axis up right arms. Would you make me them?
