Welcome to Science Fun Innovations, LLC
Make your own CNC parts out of wood, plastic, or even aluminum. In this video I show you step-by-step how I build a large CNC router for under $600. This router is controlled by an Arduino using GBRL (G-Code) delivered by the free Universal G-Code Sender application. This project does not require a lot of tools and is very fun to build. CNC routers this size normally cost several times more. Below are the links to most of the parts used in this video. Note that some of these are affiliate links, meaning no extra cost to you, but my channel might make a little extra to put towards the next video. Thank you for your support! (Note: Some of these items may be cheaper on AliExpress)

Thanks! I've got some good mentors. :-)
That's interesting building a CNC router, looks possibly more cost effective than buying one cause you can make exactly what you need. Great video

I am enjoying it, and because it is so modular I can modify it any time I want.
Thanks for your informative and helpful video👍🏼

Glad you liked it!
gr8 project, i think leaning toward more user friendly interface and maybe intergrating some 3D printed vacum nozzles and this will be a hit

Excellent, just what I was looking for 🎉 now if you could just add a 10w pwm diode laser and show how and show us how it all works together on the cnc that would be amazing.

Down the road a year or two. Too many projects going on right now. :-)
I have 3 nema 17 60mm for x and y. Will this do or should i buy nema23's. I have exactly same planed dimensions 1000mm x 500mm. Plan to use rack and pinion with spring foy y and common lead screw for x and z for now. Any thoughts? Will mainly use on wood designs. Will use hgr15 linear rails.

My Z axis is NEMA 17 and it does fine. 17's would probably work for this, but you might want 23's if you ever want to upgrade. Thanks for watching! Good luck!

You are describing almost identical situation as I am trying to solve, so please give me a few answers... 1. Is there good enough alternative to Fusion 360? 2. Can it be done with sketchup? 3. What flavour of Fusion do you use? Free or payed version? Thanks in advance
@ScienceFunInnovations

Fusion 360 is free for hobbyists. Sketchup cannot do CAM that I am aware.
Hi, I am doing CNC machine using servo motor. Can you plz guide me little bit??? How to use for servo motor based CNC? How to configure Universal G-Code Sender for servo motors?

Did you watch both videos? A servo should work very similar to steppers, you will have different number of steps per rotation.

@@ScienceFunInnovations Yup. I am only confused with 4:40 (Calibrate). How will I find these values for my machine. As I am using Yamamoto ydk ya-010-1 servo motors.
I built one many years ago, since then i bought one better built. You should always do the outside cut last.

Where did you download fusion 360?

From Autodesk. They have free versions for hobbyists.
