G0704 Home Switches in Action

Here is a short video of my Home Switches in action on the G0704 mill.

I will get some better switches soon and post an update, one thing to note is how far the machine moves off the switches before they are "un made", I attribute this to the cheap switches I bought when I ordered the cnc electronics. At that point I didnt realize the value of a good home switch and it will be well noted in the future.

G0704 CNC Milling Machine In action

Here is a short video of my first test program after finishing up the CNC conversion of my G0704 Milling Machine, it is running a cicular pocket in the air.



G0704 CNC Milling Machine

I have made an addition to my shop which should greatly aid in the design and building process of my cnc routers. I bought a G0704 milling machine from Grizzly Machine Tools and I am converting it over to CNC control.


 

 The Mill will be controlled by a desktop PC and run by a software called Mach3, it is from a company called Artsoft.

This will be a great addition to my shop and I will soon be offering CNC machining services as well, drop me a line and let me know what you think or ask any questions you might have
