Hi folks!

Yes! My bearing houses/holders have arived! Now i should be able to build every thing up!? I hope! First i need to drill some holes on the top. This should be done with the cnc, its a bit tricky to fasten it on my bed. But ill give it a try!

The 2 small ones wont be used for the faceting machine, one im going to use as a 4th axis and the other, uhm dont know yet :) but the big ones are almost the same as the small ones. I only put the bearings in it and the harmonic drive.

Hmmzz, Made my first drawing for the first rotor... Im not shure im going to place the spindle on the first table. At this way i loose too mutch from my Z axis. Mayby its better to place the Z on the second table at the motor hight.

I'f made a test plate from wood, need to change some things on it but the drawing works! I think i will make the build first from mdf wood so that i can change some things that dont work. I also broke one end mill... didnt look good :( but we go on :D

I need to change the width and depth of the linear guide cars for the rest is it all thankfully oke! Need to keep my mind with the milling!

Hi There,

No one watching/interrested anymore?!

Drawed the second plate today, mayby i mill it tomorrow. I first need to check if the sizes are all correct before i will mill in aluminium. A plate with this size 400x160x20mm costs around 25 euro's (+/- 30 AUD). So i first try it in wood. This is 100 times cheaper. And i can directly check if i done all my measurements correct. On the second plate i can fasten my linear guide cars, z-spindle and for future mount my linear encoder.

I already did the sides of the guide cars.

Oke! Please tell me if i need to make changes or if i dont see something an you are! Help is always needed! :- ) Ask Questions!?

I'd mill the plate and added it to the construction, now it is waiting on my Nema 34 motor... Adding a another 3.5Kg to the machine :- ) I also need to mill the bottem plate again. The linear guide cant go through... And had some trouble with the spindle mount. I have made it a bit larger dan i have drawed... it fits now and i have changed directly my drawing. Hope the motor will come next week. If thats all oke i can begin with the first 4 plates milling out of aluminium or i first go on with wood.

Here's a photo!
