My new homemade CNC

Post by laurent_parti »

Hi all,

Thanks to accept me in your forum. I did spent hours reading post and watching also video about CNC. One day I decided to jump into this world and creat my own machine. Was a big challenge. So I share my small experience if it can help others or just one members :D

Here it is my new machine:

Laurent,

Welcome to The Home Machinist!.

Excellent Design and Workmanship., VERY COOL. 8) :wink:

How many hours did it take you to build this machine :?:

How long have you been using Linux :?:

Do you use Linux for all your computer needs :?:

Before I forget..

It would be very helpful if you could put

your EARTHLY LOCATION in your profile so it shows up

below your name and to the left of all of your post’s. :idea:

ken572,

Thanks for your comments.

I spent 1 years to finish the machine. I use both Linux and other systems (winbug :lol: !lol). But for the CNC I only use linux, no license, works great since the first start and without any concerns.

You did a nice job on that.

Some day I need to try that Linux software.
