- I use my shop computer for drawing and to control my CNC router. So far, it had no good place and was sitting on "temporary" desks. I wanted a better solution and built this height-adjustable arm to mount it. Controlling the CNC at standing height is finally comfortable now.

Homemade PC Arm with Special Features - Jak na to + styl
This was a fun and challenging build. It's crazy how much better this is compared to little desk before.

MEGA. Ich würde am Scharnier der den arm hält, Unterlagscheiben aus Teflon verwenden. Das verhindert Abrieb und erhöht die Beweglichkeit.
Kannst du ganz einfach nachrüsten, weil das Material nicht dick ist.
Hi little confused are you telling me I responded quickly or that I won something thank you Marius
Hallo,leider funktioniert Paypal nicht. mich würde der PC arm interessieren sowie dein werkzeugwechsler.
I would love to see how you set up the power/control board for the tools!
5:40: "If anybody comments about how weak wooden threads are ... There's 0 load on the threads and you totally missed the point"
Thanks Marius!
I used machine screws in wood for my whole CNC build. All the linear guide rails, the bearing blocks, the stepper motors etc. are mounted that way. It holds up remarkably well, so even with some heavy load I can highly recommend wooden threads.
@@Mike-Tango-Alpha Thats true. I only wrote down what Marius shows at 5:40 for a very short time. Without any personal information.
But wooden threads are so weak! 😂
(They really aren't bad lol)
@@johannesb.911 It took me some tries to pause at the message, and started smiling. Would I've known that you already made the work ... Anyway, thank you:)
Here's just a minor little theory, definitely a conspiracy theory that has absolutely nothing to do with our previous commentator, here! Threads, i.e. the type and dimensions, are selected according to the requirements such as shearing and tensile forces (Because of "fun" ... surely not!). The purpose of use, the material constants and the required holding force then flow into the selection of the right thread. A certain safety reserve has also to be planned for this purpose. Supporting frame constructions and housings always have to be able to withstand the maximum forces that can occur in the event of an accident, misuse or a defect in the internal structure/machinery(for example that a tool goes airborne or a moving part is blocked, like a ball-screw). Such incidents can and DO happen. Up to a certain degree, care has to be taken and they have to be considered in the design of the machine.
Small example: 1. We accidentally programmed something wrong: The wooden router falls apart... Great! (Most of the time it is a chain of events, that lead to DESASTER! One the hobbyist never thought of) 2. You stumble and fall on the X axis: In addition to your ankle fracture, the spindle guide also breaks off and cuts off your neck... Very Nice. Then you "no longer" have to get upset about your own stupidity:P
The cruel example was of course just a satirical joke. Or should we rather ask the health insurance companies about the idiot accident statistics? hehe.
Gruß und 3 Finger hoch: Fünf Bier fürs Sägewerk!;)
That was a hard pause to nail.
Wooden threads are pretty weak. I know there's 0 load on the threads but I probably missed the point. 😛
Love when you pulled the finished part out of your monitor. Excellent editing!
Your editing skills rock. The vids are amazing.
Off topic, but please bring back the outtakes at the end, they were really fun. Wonderfully made project. Thanks for always sharing
You might find it nice to add a knob of some sort on that nut that locks the angle of the parallelogram mechanism. Something that allows you to grip it easily and know which orientation is correct for when it is locked in place. I feel like fiddling with the small wing nut will get old eventually.
Yet another neat project!
Given the limited space on your "desktop" you might consider swapping out your mouse for a trackball. A trackball would probably also better cope with sawdust.
There's always that wireless logitech keyboard/trackpad thing.
They are pretty dirt sensitive, at least for me.
A wooden parallelogram mechanism with considerable force and parallelism requirements. Well done, Marius!
This is the typical Midwest dad response when he is excited about a project.
Great build! I have struggled a lot with a parallelogram in the past and I have never completed the project, so I appreciate this video even more.
Awesome project as always. I love how quickly you go through the time consuming parts. Viewing these videos its a pleasure
I can't tell you how much I missed your content. I'm really glad you're posting again. Great stuff.
Awesome as always. I'm probably not going to buy a cnc in the near future, but it's so satisfying to see good and smart design built.
The tool changer was a work of art, and I love seeing you continue to make cool projects with it. Amazing!
Great build. Love the tool changer on your CNC. Just recently watched the camera swing arm you built. Excellent! Your name is frequently mentioned on many other maker channels so you have quickly become a CZcams legend.
Marius ,I gotta say I’m 100 percent impressed!Not only are you talented but your smart as hell! Love your content and thanks for taking the time to show us these videos you post! A big thumbs up👍👍👍👍
loved that edit pulling a finished part out of the computer screen!
just getting back into cnc, it used to be my job so anything i needed the company bought. love channels like yours that gives us pointers and then throws in some drawings so we can build our own. great work.
Thanks for inspiration, just when I needed the same stand for my CNC plasma table!
This is the first of your videos that I have watched. Your explanations are clear, you don't have much extra footage, you show your mistakes AND your corrections to them, your speech is clear and concise, and you very obviously know your craft. You have earned another subscriber!
Wow, that's some good build quality there, as i always see from you. Great job, Marius!
Always incredibly inspiring, thanks Marius!
the best part was you pulling the part out of the screen
You do really nice work. Not, just on this project, but on all your projects.
The engravings!!! OMG they are so beautiful and there's no need for dumb dymo labels or marker writings.
And another genius video; which most are interested in. Thank you kind Sir. For sharing your innate talents to us. Awesome!
Hey Marius, great job. Can't wait for the next project. Don't be gone for too long!
Great design and really enjoyed seeing your troubleshooting!
You are a very ingenious young man, Marius!!! Great job again!
unglaublich - super gut desinged und umgesetzt - großes Kompliment Marius
A small suggestion: Most of the Industrial machines come with a trackball instead of a mouse. Might be something for you as well. Takes a bit to get used to, but great for small spaces like your table area. A desktop one will with thumb control will suite, but there are some industrial ones with bigger full hand size balls that are better dust resistant as well.
Excellent work and video! Thanks for all the effort.
The algorithm sent me here because I just posted a video doing a similar build for mounting my camera in my shop. It was nice to see you work out some of the same issues I did. Excellent build and video, now I need to learn about that tool changer.
Very nice add on to your workshop and it looks great
Amazing video. Love your work. Thank for sharing with us!
5:58 when you have to do something like this, use strands from the copper in the core of a power line. Excellent to tie stuff together for installation.
9:53 was very satisfying. I love the edits you throw in your videos
I have now watched a few of your videos, and I realize this is something that an old person says, but wow - you are an impressive young man! Your ingenuity and editing skills are amazing!
I really wanna see that probe in a video! Super interesting!
Great work!
Thanks for sharing those tips and the make!
I like the work you do everything is neat and clean that's a good quality
Excellent video and nice job! 👍
Enjoyed, as always!
Use screws through the top of the arm, put a hole through the screws, Attach the springs within the arm through those screws, this will allow you to tension the system. Good Luck. Hope it helps!
I just finished my cnc table, and you made one much better, I hate you , I have to do it all over again!
The monitor arms I have used have some sort of adjustment screw to make the monitor level. It appears they knew the arm and mount would always have some flex and added functionality to overcome it. You have probably already thought of this. :) Love the video and pulling the piece out of the screen!
Excellent work as usual.
Super Sache, wenn Du als Abschluss Hutmuttern nimmst, wird's fast pefekt !👍
Amazing that it works without a counterweight
Great job! Really looks good! And very practical for your shop. :)
You can consider adding a short depth monitor tilt pivot wall mount bracket and that will allow you to offset any slant on the screen. The typically also allow for a few degrees of tilt and swivel which helps when you reposition the arm or move between sit and stand positions.
Amazing! A work of art.
Another great video Marius .
Amazing work Marius, rubbing a candle along your drawer slides will apply a layer of wax that will reduce friction
Love this project, and really want to build a cnc like yours one day, with all this awesome gear, i love the 0.1 second trash talk to the haters 5:40
incredible as always!
nice build. good thing you constrained the angle of the mechanism to about 35°. First thing i thought was: "Oh no this will snap to the ground eventually." but my concern was unfounded.
Nice logo animation also
Live that you are back!
Fantastic job, as usual.
Instead of metal springs try pneumatic springs.
Have a look at a flexarm, they use the same parallelogram mechanism and use pneumatic springs.
Good idea. I wanted to use stuff I already had
@@MariusHornberger Maybe an inflatable tube that you can inflate to raise and deflate to lower the arm?
@@MariusHornberger Also 5:50 onward "Installing the springs is a little bit tricky".
Ask your mum!!! Hehe. A bit of string from the sewing box to fix the springs during assembly would have helped. (Bavarian cable ties)
(Ein bisschen Bindfaden aus dem Nähkästerl, um die Federn bei der Montage zu Fixieren, hätte geholfen. (Bayrische Kabelbinder)) ... Männer ... pffft **g**
Wonderful project. Thanks for sharing your design, doing the great work and showing it off, Marius!:)
".. the light comes on once and then it smells" and "... this is for shit" -- Real world analysis. Love the developments you have incorporated. I could mention dust and proximity but you'll come around to that when you take off the goggles and mask you'll be using. And .. the noise proximity to your ears ... but IPODS will mask that for a while...
Hiermit erhalten Sie den Lob eines Schwaben Herr Hornberger. Nehmen Sie dieses rare Gut und fahren Sie damit fort so wunderschöne Dinge zu erschaffen.
Ne jetz ma fr. Das is krasses Zeug, was du machst. Ich freue mich auf das nächste Projekt!
Cooles Projekt, jetzt hab ich Lust mir auch sowas, für meine CNC und mein Laptop, zu bauen.
great build and funny video thanks for show it
Great idea and makes work easier or should I write more ergonomic. I might try and make one from metal. I am building a frame for my CNC as it has outgrown my table. Also thumbs up on the auto tool changer.
The only thing i would change is to add a 2 mm braided steel line from the top of the parallelogram through the bottom of the main (table) joint and then through the leg and over (or under it to the floor if you think about it down up) back to a bigger spring.
This is how architectural/engineering tables had various implements back in the day, only difference is the spring would be hidden inside the leg, which is not an option here.
Amazing work...
I could probably build this, but I certainly don't have your ability to to design it. I really enjoy your videos.
Great design.
Nicely done!
FYI. Doubling the springs x2 distance that a single one can hold.
So if one spring holds 1 kg at x distance.
2 springs thats hold 1 kg will move twice the distance. A single spring will be stronger☺️
You re a GENIUS !👍
Very nice Marius
Bravo Marius!!
Wonderful work! I wanted to comment about your threads… mainly about your on screen flash text … hilarious 😂
Dude, you're quite the engineer!
Genius, 🇩🇪 respect to that germany 👍
Well done.............. like your attitude when things fail... Keep it up
nice project as usual
Please make a video about that probe. It looks amazing!
Some rubber bands or silicon straps or similar around the long members of the mechanism would add to the lifting ability and doesn't require any modification.
Excellent work as usual 8-)
the use of machines and tools here is insane - but still a nice project
Nice job 👍🏼
Beautiful!
Richtig klasse konstruiert Marius. :)
Hey Marius, you're awesome. 9:54! ;-)
You should've made your bushing in bronze there is a self lubricating bronze and you could size them exactly to the shop that you could insert since you already have a lathe
Interessante Konstruktion
finde die innen liegenden Federn sehr gut
That drawer beneeth the mouse will come in handy when you actually work for longer periods of time to reduce stress to your harm.
Marius, Sorry to comment so many months late. Thats the best parralelogram table I’ve seen! Matthias couldnt have done as well….haha. Reakky nice engineering and build!
Yes, a seperate video about the DIY-Probe would be great
Em uma Palavra: PROFISSIONAL!
Nice job
Nice gaming rig.
9:53 ROFL! Best edit ever!
very nice !!!
MISSED YOU DUDE
Who's a clever little Hornberger? :) :)
Thank you fir making heavy/beefy plywood joints. so many fail, and have floppy mechanisms, steel is better, but a lot more werk.
Wooden thread strong like ox, no point to miss
