Router project update – Frame done
14/10/2011 | Filed under: CNC routerI have now completely built a new frame for my router. The frame size is 1200x500x600 and I am hoping to be able to have usable area for cutting around 1000×400.
The drive belt
The mount for the rails for my x-axis
Frame all done
Now I am waiting, like a child on chrinstmas for my other parts to be watercutted.

16/04/2011 | Filed under: Open source softwareI have not used it much but it looks really promising. The Heeks CAD/CAM open source software. This is what hobbyist need. At least those who are looking for less expensive or free solutions compered to high end CAD/CAM software that cost about 10.000$. Here are some screenshot taken from the Heeks webpage.
Check this out if this is something you are looking for. It works both for windows and Linux.
