This is me !

This is where we don't want anything but evidence of your finest wood butchering in all its glorious, and photograph laden glory. Bring your finished products or WIP's, we love them all, so long as there's pictures, and plenty of 'em!

This is me !

OK .. so I haven't posted any pics yet .. this is the sort of thing I do all day every day ...


Photo Frame with initials

Home made CNC machine ...


(there is a you tube link in the middle .. but I don't know why the thumb doesn't show ? )

MOD EDIT : I've fixed the youtube link for you. When you want to add a youtube link there's a button above the text window, press that and it inserts the youtube tags, then you look at your URL and copy the apparently random set of characters that appears after the = and paste them between the tags, et voila.

The blanks look really good.

But I bet I'm not the only one who'd like to see how the machine was made!

OK. I'll be patient!!

I'm not sure whether it's my machine (Mac Mini) or my connection or the file, but it played for about 3 seconds and then I got the grey circle of perpetual waiting! I kept nudging forward and kept getting another couple of seconds. Never had that before.

I believe that Frank Howarth did a video series on the building of his CNC machine too, if that's any interest.

My Build was based on skip diving ! lol ..
My Dad was working at a machining place and saw these in a skip ..

so my design and size was based on what I had to hand ..
made for a cheap build ! lol ..
and surprisingly .. this "prototype" is still running all day every day 3 or4 yrs later ..
I cant remember now .. time just passes without letting me know ! lol

I did! Read your original message, there's a full explanation, in great detail, at the bottom…

If I were being picky about it I could point you here, or suggest you hover your mouse over the youtube button where the full instructions would pop up in a little yellow box. But I'm not being picky, so I won't. :eusa-whistle:

It never ceases to amaze me the way you guys find solutions to problems.

It really is better than watching Masterchef!!
