while the space has a few cnc projects in progress, i was wondering if
people would be interested in if the space would acquire a cnc machine kit
which just needs to be assembled? the stepcraft 2 would come as a DIY kit
with everything included for about 800 gbp.
I’ve expressed an interest in a pledge drive for a CNC before, I think it’s
on the tools wish list
but a couple of things
It may be best to wait until we’ve moved to the new space
My opinion is, it needs to be large area CNC instead of a small one
(we already have 2 small ones, I’m working on getting the Proxxon working
as we speak)
the smallest version of the Ooznest Ox is around £650 and that’s 500mm x
750mm http://ooznest.co.uk/OX-CNC-Machine/OX-CNC-Mechanical-Kit
Although it only contains the mechanical parts and stepper motor’s the
spindle and electronics is separate
(this is what I’ve got at home)
With openbuilds parts / rails you can attach different heads to it very
easily.
I think Bob is looking for a C-Beam based machine for additional rigidity
a couple of others I’ve spoken to would like something as big as possible,
the largest iteration of the OX I’ve seen with C-Beam is the RoverCNC https://snbinc.ca/store/products.php?101&cPath=32
Although we may be able to make the plates ourselves once the smaller CNC’s
are up and running (or if I get mine working any time soon)On Thursday, March 24, 2016 at 11:18:07 AM UTC, Constantin Popp wrote:

I’m of the opinion we should leave any discussion until after we’re settled
