Extremely valuable build information. You show what works and what doesn't. We'll done and apreciated!
Thanks Doiug, glad you found it handy!
This is most underrated video ever… deserves 100x likes then 2.9k
Excellent video, very well explanation and editing too. Thanks from argentina!
You're welcome from Canada! 😁
Great Tutorial. Great step by step instructions. And funny too, LOL! SUBSCRIBED!
Fantastic video! Love the humor and the easy to understand information!
Glad you appreciated my content Joey! 👍
Outstanding!! Thank you for your time!
Thank you sir!
Great video. Thank you
This is a very good explanation of how to build your own CNC machine i'm going to make mine and want to make it out of steel like you did, great video man.
I agree!! This is basically what I was looking for and he does a great job of explaining, with some humor.. I subed because of this video.
thankyou sir... i appreciate your work and effort.
Great video, thank you for posting it
Great video. Thanks for making.
Thanks for watching! 😅👍
well done, congrats!
Thank you , exelent video and aspecialy Thanks for drawing !!! Nice job, gold hands !
Thanks Dmitrii 👍
Very well done. My CNC will be much smaller with Nema 17s, it should be good for my small garage hobby shop. Very helpful and clear info.
Thank you TO. Now that's a short name! Happy that it helped you. Keep in mind that my CNC is for my garage and it's on the small size for my project. I once read, if you can afford one step bigger, you should go for it, you won't regret it on the long run....just a though.. Thnak for the comment!
Excellent video .hats off
Glad you liked it 😁!
Excellent vide, thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!😁
The best explanation i ever watched
Thanks Hairil! Glad it helped!
Thanks Viny great video, keep it up
Thanks, will do! 👍
Great video and build. I purchased a Langmuir CNC but this is still awesome content!
Awesome, thank you!
Very helpful thanks for sharing
My pleasure Calvin! 👍
Nice job. Thank you very very much.
Thank you Luke, it's my pleasure, hope you enjoy the other videos on my channel! 😁
Excellent , excellent video. I’ve watched a lot of cnc build videos and yours has way more practical information and the production quality is great. Funny as all get out. Loved the peach butt.
Thanks Ed! Glad you enjoy the technical and funny sides of this video! 👍 That is my main goal on YT, share my experiences in a entertaining way!
@@VinyB57 I’m interested in making a smaller routing CNC with more precision. Aside from linear rails and ball screw do you have any frame rigidity tips beyond triangles etc. like box wall thickness?
* ideally am the cnc can cut soft metals like brass, aluminum, plastics and wood. I’ll primarily use it to make patterns to use for sending out for iron castings.
@@rallymax2 well, one thing that comes in mind, is not bolted, but welded and also, the bigger the better.If you have, or can afford big and thick squarre tubes, go for it! I used 2x2x3/16 walls, because that's what I had in the shop! The stiffer the frame, the less vibration you will have. So yeah, I guess that's it! Good Built! 👍
Oh and by the way, it's always a ration of feed speed (chip load on the spindel) and rigidity of the frame. Too fast, and you'll get vibration resulting in an ugly surface finish. With your machine, you'll find that sweet spot, where you cut fast enough to get a nice cut finish. So keep in mind, the stiffer you make it, the faster you'll go!
Thanks Viny, I am about to build a cnc router and could not decide on the size of the stepper motors. I guess bigger is better. A bit of an overkill cannot harm the machine.👍🇿🇦🇦🇺🇬🇪🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺
Excellent Video! Thankyou! I also make these and it’s good to see how other people do it. You also could actually use one 24V power supply for all your stepper motor drivers.
Thanks for the info!
Thanks for sharing
My pleasure 👍
With those big motors, you could gear up the acme rod with gear boxes or gt belts and pulleys
You have a very nice machine there, and I believe that the accuracy may be improved using micro-stepping… Does your axis controller support micro-stepping?
I use a belt as a my rack and penion. Works super well
👍
at first I thought this was going to be another European build, but that accent is Francophone Canadien isnt it? the Mastercraft toolbox confirms this. subscribing. hello from BC
On no I've been unmasked by the mastercraft! 😅 Hi from Qc! 😁
Salutations de la France, beau boulot !
Really nice job. You could also use it as a big 3D printer
THAT would be something!!!👍
Nice video. Thank you for your generosity to give freely what you learned. It saves others time and expense of researching on their own. I hope you will make more videos. Zed? What happened to Z?
You're welcome, and yes I will make plenty of other videos.... for the ''ZED''....I'm french canadian....my bad.. you unmask me...
Z is not universal alot of English speaking countries say zed instead
Zed is dead
now let's see if he said ZED fallowed by axis and you don't get it, maybe you shouldn't build this thing, just saying🤷
Loving your videos @VinyB57. Would you ever consider doing some videos on how you designed your projects in SolidWorks?
Hey thanks Neil! Never though about showing how I design things, even tho that s what I do 40hr per week😅 Maybe one day I ll guive all my secrets...🙊 There s not much to say really.. 😉
Great video. Please link to the pdf
Thank you for all your efforts and generosity, It's helping a lot. May I ask you if you can share the solidworks file please? If no I can understand. Thank you.
Thanks Rami, for now I'm just sharing the drawings, but maybe I'll do something for the 3D cad
Also, I think the encoder ticks per rotation can be adjusted. Ive had encoder issue before, (bottle inspection machine on a high speed conveyor) where the number of encoder ticks was too low, so I grabbed a higher resolution encoder. After doing this I had to set the divider value for the encoder such that the number of pockets is divisable; in this case, it would be steps per rotation by encoder ticks per rotation. I hope this does not confuse the situation, because it may just ba a matter of using controller with microstep feature. Warning: I’m new to CNC machines, and havent even built one yet, I’m just thinking about problems Ive had with similar machines, with similar parts.
how do I get paper drawings of the controller box and wiring connections for a build of the CNC and a plasma all in one for 48" x 96" table
Plans in imperial measurements make me cry at night.
America! 😅
@@VinyB57 F*ck Yeah ! Should have gotten rid of those inches in 1783 while you had the chance though lol.
Hi mate, what size belts are you using?
Thanks Vinny. I hope you are getting paid on views because I have watched this several times now. Are you using an everlast plasma? (That is what I'm going with so hopefully firing the torch is easy) I thought I saw a green box. Do you think the 12" spacing between the rails on the gantey/x axis is necessary for stability? I'm modifying your plans to use steel I have on hand and will likely run less spacing. What strength springs did you use to hold the pinion gears to the rack? does it matter?? Side note it looks like some of the links are out of date or better deals are available. If I'm buying anyways I'd love to use an affiliate link. Thanks again for the content.
What of breakout board do you use in this build. Also how do you get the plasma arc to start from the computer?
The break out board I'm using came with the kit, it's really a no name brand, got 12 outputs and 5 inputs. For the plasma starter, that's a good one, I had to look at my notes, I did this setup 3 years ago😅 So in Mach 3, in the menu ''engines setting, ports and pins'', in the tab ''spindle setup'' you attribute an output pin for the M3 code (clockwise spindle). So every time your G code will see an M3, that will signal the output you attribute.. If I recall correctly, the output then trigged a relay that is connected to a connector that came with the plasma, so that the plasma will start. Hope that helps! Otherwise, send me an email at design57@outlook.com
Thanks a lot for sharing your design...
My pleasure Tahar!
I have try to build one but couldn’t get rid of plasma arc screw up the control signal, there’s any trick you did to over come it? High voltage arc is really good for make stepper motor go nuts
YES!!! What I did is I bought a ''ready to CNC plasma cutter'' and the second thing you can do is shield all your wires and ground them. I didn't shield mine, got a bit os loosing steps when cutting over 1/4''. Don't use cheap ebay plasma cutting machine. My cutter used a different technology to create the arc, then the cheap machines.
May I suggest upgrading to this new offline controller it will soon replace Mach 3 and 4.
SMC5-5-N-N offline controller. Everything all in one unit.
Hi Jimmy, I checked online that controller and it's pretty neat and quite affordable to! Thank you for sharing my friend! And there's a new project coming into the shop...and this one will be with servos! Stay tune!
Hi I am clearly being very blunt but can t seem to find the link to the drawings, great video, want to build one, have ordered the nema 34s! can you point me in right direction for drawings please
Hi Chris, If you go at the bottom of the description box (you have to clic on the ''show more'' button) under ''drawing'', you will see the link. I also put some links for parts that you can purchase for your project. If you buy from those links, that will send few pennies to the channel and help it finance other projects, but if you don't that's fine to, at least you'll have a starting point for purchasing parts! 😁
What is the software you used to edit this video, please. Thanks from Viet Nam
It''s Davinci resolve 16 and there's a free version from Davinci, you should check that out!
Have you tried multi threaded acme rod? Should give you more speed and the same accuracy as regular acme lead screw.
That could be a good option too.
That's called multi-start. I get 200 inches per minute using 1/2 X 10 TPI acme thread in 1/8th microstep mode on my CNC machine. But my OS and motion control software can output a decent step pulse stream. It can probably go faster but 2,000 RPM lead screws is kind of insane.
I cant find any good walkthroughs for the actual torck connection to the mach3 or 4
Large precision gantry cnc use rack and pinion also
yep! 👍
Hey Viny ! I assume by your accent your french canadian, which i also am. In case im wrong ill keep on with the english. Anyway, im interested in building my own cnc waterjet cutter as i need excessive precision on the cut itself. Ive been surfing thru a lot of CNC videos but it just keeps on shuffeling the pot in my head.. would you be able to break down the control system more precisly ? You went over the diagram but it seems fairly complicated the way mach talks to the breaker board and all
Salut Andrix, c'est assez simple comment Mach3 parle au BOB. Si jamais tu as des questions spécifiques, tu peux m'écrire un courriel au design57@outlook.com
@vinyb57 You're from Canada...? Then why are you using the crazy measurement system?
Great CNC project Viny...what was your $$ investment on parts and materials?
I putted a detailed list at 15:15 in this video and it s aboit 2k$
ideal power have 90V but normal home diy used 36-60V no matter what motor have, motors have important only max ampere my many factory i has build cnc old bridgeport has used 45V and 5A nema 24 or 34 motors. each axis need own power better than one big power.
Hello Vinny, my name is Vic and I have a situation that I hope you can help me with. I have a friend that moved away and left his 5x10 foot woodworking CNC machine in my shop for storage. It’s been 2 years since I heard anything from him and has not responded to any form of communication with me about possibly coming to pick it up. I have the computers and the table. It is fully functional and assembled. What he did not leave here with me was the control box or operating system to run it with. I know the video I just watched is 3 years old and I would like to know what I would need to buy to get this machine to run again, since it looks like I just inherited it for keeps. Please let me know what I need to buy and if any newer more modern and user friendly components are available. I have never used a cnc but I’m also a woodworker and would love to step up my crafting potential. Thank you so much. Vic
thanks my friend, you are a hero and grateful for your help to mankind...i would like to have your email am trying to develop a 130cm by 300cm cnc and would need your help...thanks again
Hi Alieu, you can reach me at : design57@outlook.com
@@VinyB57 Hi again ...please check your email thanks
GREAT VIDEO - it is slightly misleading to call it a DIY machine - what you have developed is . . .
a Professional-Level, Multi-Purpose CNC Machine ---- this is normally beyond the scope of a DIY machine!
Thanks for the very helpful insights
Not really. It's large but it's still DIY.
@@MattJonesYT but "cheap", not really.
I need 1/2 size of yours. How much is total parts cost? ( disability income).
I put a build cost sheet at 15:20
11:27 I saw what you did there
old table computer were have paraller port need first, cost 20-30$ then instal linux cnc software and can run. paraller port need cable and breakout board cost 10$ then need ewery axle and motor own stepper driver board, signal need, step,dir,enaple and limit switch, stepper motors best have nema 34 or biggest but nema 23 have minimium motors to mill, plasma can use nema 17 and 3D printer etc, laser, but mill need more power torgue motors, optimal BEST motors have closed loop nema 43 stepper motors whit own drivers, then need only ball screws and linear rails can start build frame. ready.
Please send me software dittel to work
Mach 3 cnc router wood work home diy
Hi I am very interested cnc please my help you sir
Ok, how can I help?
brealout normal need 5volt drivers need 24V or better 36V to drivers, drivers need be more than stepper motors ampere, if max ampere have motor 4,5A driver need be 5A model. power to drivers need add big can capasitor about bottle size 10 000uf or more.no weak and lose steps,mach3 found FREE to torrent, but linux cnc FREE have lot better, windows computer have lot problem because windows not handle good interrups. linux cnc have better sure realtime controller. windows not have.
I haven't watched the video yet but I am noticing that all of the DIY builds demands all sorts of exotic tools to build and by exotic I mean tools most people do not have and are expensive unto themselves and/or demand proper training to use. Simple device that only requires simple tools to make would be a winner.
Is a welder and a grinder to exotic? Because, that's all you need!
Grinder no but a welder would be a huge yes.
@@thebeststooge cant you get a cheap welder for like 100 dollars?
@Di Pf Yet even more money AND you need the proper setup to weld so even more money. I am lucky I was trained how to stick weld 40 years ago so I know what is involved. Bench vise, the welder. Real welders helmet (I take at least a #10 if not darker) and welders gloves (thick leather and if you think you don't need them just wait until a ball of iron flies back on you). A welders smock (also of thick leather) to protect you for the same reason as the gloves. I am sure someone will chime in and say they don't use any of that and use flip flops (like this guy in India was doing) but if you have any intelligence to you then you discount those idiots and make safety a number one priority. Basically that 100 for a cheap ass welder is now about 500 dollars.
@@thebeststooge You want it easy? Here it is: czcams.com/video/mJ-TZvFpY58/video.html But you get what you're pay for! If you only have imprecise tools you would end up with a imprecise machine.
If the motion control software on your PC screws up then you are using a lousy OS and motion control program. Better known as Windows and Mach 3. My LinuxCNC never skips a beat because Linux.
Doesn't Look like you Included the Price of MACH 3 Software in your breakdown. So just add $200 for MACH 4.
Good point! ...and the you can add also the cost fot the Sheetcam software (for plasma cutting)
You may know that there's a free version (only 180 code lines) but otherwise it's about 120$ to 150$
Is this a music video. Lol

What country are you located. Are you out of harms way if the Putin move on to the Ukraine
Yes, should be ok....
Until Putin starts a war against Canada, Viny B and family should be OK. They are French Canadian. 🍁
