One thing to note, if you make your slats thinner and with points going to the top you will cut down on slag and buildup on them. That stuff can be a beast to remove. That said I use a Trumpf laser setup with two cutting setups in a high volume environment. We usually clean a table a day at least to remove buildup and depending on what we are cutting it sometimes isn't enough. Being your setup though I see no major problems just be aware of slag and general crap buildup on the slats. If the workpiece doesn't lay level getting a good cut will be a pain in the ass to say the least. Good video and build. Looking forward to the next one!

@blackloopcnc94154 жыл бұрын
Anyone who has some doubts or questions about that CNC not running well or making weird noises, no worries. Everything will be sorted out. As this is early stage still. I am just using Blackbox controller at the moment to test out the movements and how my basement made parts fit together. There is some mechanical issues that I need to iron out. And this design is overkill for plasma actually(double linears on all axis), because it mostly 'cuts' air, there is no spindle or endmills involved, thus no load at the axes besides the gantry. But with this overkill Donn has an option to slam a spindle there and BANG, watch out you nasty plywood:)

When you replace your slats, you might consider what we did. Our slats are about 3"x 1/8". We took three pieces of 1 1/2" x1/8" angle iron and laid two in the bottom of the pan near the edges and cut slots in the vertical part of the angle where the slats would go. The third piece was laid in the center and slots were cut in it to hold the curve in the slats. The angles only put force on the end of the pan and the slats do not put force on the edge of the pan. Slats can be replaced or flipped over without any cutting or welding and the angle iron keeps the slats off of the bottom of the pan so that water can flow to level.

Watch your torch in and torch out lengths and you'll have a blast. The things I could do with the table were awesome.

You could replace the short nipple you used for the nozzle with a nipple having threads on both ends. Then install an Iron Pipe Thread to Garden Hose thread adapter. You'd be able to quickly connect a necessary length of garden hose to the drain and run that outside or to a drain. A small screen on the drain bung would prevent dross from draining out into the hose.

You could have completely avoided welding the slat holders to the bottom. You could have cut them half height and then place two perpendicular "ribs" on top using matching half-height cuts. Perpendicular slats would hold to each other. After a year all of them would be severely bruised, so you could simply replace them without touching the pan and draining the water.
