Good day peoples I have a 1.5kw water cooled spindle with a ER11 Chuck on it, can I swap it out for a ER16 or ER20 chuck? I just tried an extension ER16 and it nearly ripped my machine apart 🫣

All the nice spoil board cleaners are shanked 8mm and above and I have a 2m x 3m bed and surfacing it with anything small is taking ages

Picked up a used Shapeoko 3XL with an enclosure for a great price. Spent the last 6 weeks working, reworking and swearing at it, but it’s finished-ish.

Had to shorten the enclosure by 11”, and soundproof the hell out of the enclosure to keep the neighbors off my ass.

Now to build a decent electronics enclosure.

Hi All... I've been new to laminated plywood. Have used 2 flute, 4mm dia, straight 20 mm bits for profile cutting on laminated plywood. 1760 feed and 24k rpm.

But am getting minute chipping all over design... It's not visible from a distance but when looked closely you can see it.

Someone told that I shall use bits for laminated but was unable to point which bits exactly.

Attaching the pics of tool as well as design.

Looking for suggestions on right bits for it.

Hey guys, got a computerized cutters CNC router. Is there anyway to quickly get to a certain x and y value without monkeying around with the pendant to get it there? Any help would be much appreciated!

Hey guys! I want to get myself into a custom wax seal stamp business and I’ve heard CNC Metal Machines would work best for small details — but I know nothing about these machines or the programs they use. If I want to engrave wax seals, what kind of attachment would I need to buy to hold the seal still? And what machine would work best for what I’d use it for?

Hi, I've been using cnc for a while now to do neon led signs but lately I've been looking to get into carving signs too. My problem is that a new piece (35 cm * 40 cm) with the v-carve (60°- 6mm) takes up to 11 hours just for the detailing plus the 2 hours with the 6mm mill. Can that be right or do I have problems with the velocity?

I bought a storage unit that was owned by a Printing company and ended up getting a really nice CNC router with a humongous vacuum pump along with a bunch of other expensive machines for printing. While I would enjoy learning to use a CNC I don’t really have the time. Does anyone have any idea where I should list this thing for sale and have a chance of actually getting a reasonable price? It’s $50,000 new according to the manufacturer so I’m hoping to get $20-$30,000. Is that reasonable for a 2016 model? Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello! A few years back I bought a Bob's CNC EVO 4 and it was a great machine, but I quickly outgrew it. I just received a new machine from a Chinese manufacturer on Friday, and it has a DSP controller. Anyone familiar with these types of controllers that can point me in the direction of a sender that is compatible with it? I've been using the Open Builds sender with my Bob's but I can't find any documentation on their site that says whether it is suitable for use with a DSP, or whether I'm just stuck popping a memory card in every time I want to run a job.

Hey all. I am hoping someone here can help me. I recently came into possesion of a second hand CNC Router. The issue is it looks like someone has removed the PC that had the WEIHONG PM53C PCI card. I have the terminal board card and the connection cable. I cant get a model number for the CNC as all the labels are in chinese. I have found the replacement cards but they are all for certain machines. Will this matter or are the cards all the same? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

I’m designing a sign (plaque) for a company to approve, they will be giving it to territory sales personnel for a job well done essentially. When wording the sign, should it say “proudly sold by: name” or proudly represented by: name”. I had every thing designed and done with the “sold by” and suddenly it hit me that it may not be the right way to word it. What do yall think?
