What tool you need to build CNC machine?

If you have some basic tools at your house then you almost have every necessary tools (see some sample tools that  i used to build CNC).

Note :: If you have better precision and accuracy tools like milling machine ,it would be better.

Where you can find some sample or build log to guide you how to build it?

You can see detail of build log from my blog there have a lot of picture.

Sample work piece ::

How to using CNC ::

There are 3 workflows to using CNC. (CAD --> CAM --> G-Code)
- Use CAD program or vector drawing program.
- Use CAM program to convert your CAD or vector to G-Code
- Run G-Code in CNC (Load G-Code to CNC Control software like Mach3)

Frequently Asked Questions ::

Q :: What's material the machine can cut?
A :: Soft metal , aluminium , wood , plastic , acrylic.

Q :: Do your plan design by using inch/mm ?
A :: It's design by using millimeter.

Q :: Can this plan convert to 4ft x 8ft?
A :: It can convert to 4ft x 8ft but if you tuning motor to run fast then it will have some issued on 8ft base , the ball screw will twisting and it will make the machine lose step and will damage your work peice  , for 8ft base it should be rack & pinion.

Q :: Why does it have a few video of the machine on your blog?
A :: Because after finished build the machine not for long i need to did medical treatment to cure neuroinflammation then i need to sold it to get money to support my treatment.

Q :: Where to buy the parts for build CNC?
A :: You need to find it from your local supplier or if you can't find it then go eBay.

Q :: What's different between iD2CNC v.2.0 on your blog and iD2CNC v.2.1?
A :: iD2CNC v.2.1 design base on v.2.0 but improve and solve some issued that v.2.0 have.

Q :: Can this plan covert to Plasma CNC?
A :: Yes , you can convert it to Plasma CNC by remove center base aluminium profile and change table top to support plasma and add/or change spindle clamp to plasma clamp  but it don't have detail how to convert it in this plan , you do it at your own risk.
