A CNC made from Broken Rules and Spare Parts

What could be better than making 2 CNC machines from 1? That's what I did with the Stepcraft M1000 I had, and this smaller one will be used exclusively for cutting metals and plastic. Breaking rules... what could be more fun? This CNC uses regular 3/8" x 16 threaded rod for the lead screws and reuses the original stepper motors from the M1000. Cut from aluminum bar stock linear bearings because shipping from Europe for original replacements that fit the Bosch Rexroth linear rails is insanely expensive. The leadscrew nuts are just pieces of UHMW plastic I already had (bought 10+ years ago) and tapped with the threaded rod itself. The waterproof bed, spoil board and enclosure made from 1/2" thick plastic, the same stuff I used to build my homemade table saw. 3D printed parts all over the place, including the couplers for the stepper motors. Cordless! I'm using a cordless trim router for the spindle and that's working better than I would have expected. It can't run for hours at a go, but like I said in the video, I can break up the machining into small chunks to change the battery for a fully charged one. The machine is SOLID and works flawlessly. There is zero backlash on the leadscrews and the aluminum on hardened steel "bearing" is holding up just fine. The cutting area is roughly 16" x 16" with a hefty 5" clearance under the gantry for milling larger parts. Total cost was low - I just had to buy the breakout board and the drivers for the stepper. Everything else either came from the original CNC or was stuff I had already (like the plastic for the bed). While it didn't cost much, I did spend a LOT of time designing, building and troubleshooting problems, so this isn't the best way to get a CNC like this... what am I saying?? Of course it's the best way, when you are like me and LOVE building it! ▶️ Project plans for sale: https://ibuildit.ca/plans/ ▶️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=865843... ▶️ Join my Makers Mob for detailed build tutorials: https://go.themakersmob.com/john-heis...
