CNC mill built from a 3D Printer!

1. So do you run this with that PSU laying there catching chips in the fan opening? 😀 😀

2. I would subscribe but that would mean that this channel never shows up in my suggested videos again.

3. I cannot believe you used a vernier calliper as a scribe

4. estlcam cant start the job at, for example: 10mm height, it can only move below zero on the z axis, but you cant move the head of de 3d printer below zero, so how did you make this work?

5. Also ich bin da ja kein Fachmann.. Aber steckt man wirklich Litzen so unbehandelt in ein Powersupply?

6. will a creality ender 3 board be use for cnc with the same firmware for 3d printing? which will m5 trigger?

7. i would have used a small router for the cutter head

8. 5:05 wut where do you get those v grooved wheel and rail ?

9. As always, you are an excellent source of technical knowledge ?

10. do you think anyone could make an MPCNC mill using hardware from an ender 3 printer? a hybrid!

11. Just make a DIY CNC from parts , remodeling a 3d printer to cnc is tooooo weak and in time you will replace most if not all parts

12. holy shoot
    thanks for the explanation

13. how to make Auto bed leveling on CNC mode ?

14. Yo how do you convert the .nc file (output form EstlCAM) to gcode file? I can't find any solution on the internet either

15. I had
    anxiety watching you without eye protection goggles, nice video

16. nice! Do you think that a simple motherboard, as a arduino uno could make this job done?

17. Hi Guys, I just had an Idea about using Cura slicer for CNC routers, what if we inverted the G-Code created by the slicer, i.e. the G-code starts from the end of the file, of course the stl file should be modified to accommodate this, instead of having the design on cura one will have to draw the contours and change the layer and nozzle and fan settings, would this work? My 3D printer is infected with Covid 19 confinement and I can't touch it for the moment.

18. What is the best 3D printer for Cnc conversion and under 700

19. Can I do this on a creality and cut thin metal

20. So if i were to size this up, add some linear rails, nema 23s, ball screws,etc… i could still use marlin as a firmware for a cnc? Would i be limited in any way if i used marlin?

21. use a flex shaft for the motor maybe! lighterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

22. It isn’t a mill it’s a router. the subtle differences basically add up to a mill is bigger and more stable… i’m not trying to hate on your video just trying to let you know

23. any update to this video ??

24. Rather than wd40 give paraffin a try for lubing aluminium one of the best cheap readily available lubes I've ever used on ali

25. Even getting it to cut aluminium is an achievement I have a bit of milling and turning experience and even multi ton machines aren't truly solid take to big or to fast a cut and get a lot of chatter and vibration

26. Any idea how to get around the fact that the stock top becomes Z0 when you place your bit on it and the printer won't move into -Z space?

27. Your feeds look crazy for milling, no wonder you wrecked the bearings. Any cutter will have a maximum amount of material it can cut away in one revolution, if you exceed that it causes tearing instead of cutting. That's where all the extra stress was coming from.

28. Does the power supply just drive the spindle? What about the electronics? They usually take 12/24v, so I wonder if you are running two power supplies or stepping down the current for the controller board?

29. whats the easiest software to create the g-code for cnc .i use cura for 3d printing

30. Thanks a ton for this information! Would love to hear about any future developments you do with respect to building a machine like this.

31. how you set firm from 3d to cnc???

32. What is the software for generate GCode?

33. suck out the wast 🙂

34. an extractor next to the nozzle reduce hoover pipe with smaller pipe 10mm you can 3d print an adaptor from 30mm to 10 🙂

35. are u play overwatch? XD

36. long way for me ..yet to make my own 3d printer

37. Hi Tom can I convert my Tevo Tarantula in the same way, I have already converted it to laser engraving, with your help, many thanks

38. heyy man
    im planning one of this i need some suggestion

39. We were impressed by the video, looking forward to the next. We are a small 3D modeling software startup completely bootstrapped and tooks us 5 years to develop our real-time collaborative CAD.? Would be great if our channels could collaborate.

40. is this cnc can machine steel ??with right bits ?

41. Hmmm maybe more a cnc router

42. Paksi glass plates

43. XD equals "do not lube while milling" ?

44. $1100 for the printer $100 conversion price. $1200 ish. You can get some really nice desktop CNC for that price.

45. do you know a software to generate gcode for milling with our 3d printer? is it possible with cura?
