Cheap Drawer Slide CNC Machine

[pfredX1]

Hi pfredX1, show us something you have made with your swap meet 2x4 cnc router looks real good. :O) looks real strong too.

Mostly I use it as a plotter. I am still getting the hang of the software I use to make G Code. Lately I have been trying to isolation route a circuit board with the machine, and I have done some test runs on hardboard. I still do not have the G Code file quite right yet. But here is one trial. http://i.imgur.com/47xFRPY.jpg That one score mark was in the hardboard already. It is just a piece of scrap. I don't think hardboard can hold detail very well. I need to actually try to cut some copper clad circuit board, and see how that goes.

Here's that file plotted with a pen http://i.imgur.com/rBM7NEG.jpg

Look at those tiny circles.
