that machine still makes me laugh ! What the hell is this ? Sander bearings ? Never seen a so noisy thing before ! Hopefuly the spindle was off. Well, I'm affraid this thing is suitable for nothing serious, and certainly not 3D printing either. But that made my day.

Marinus, I'm convinced you have some skills in hobby 3D printing. I would not discuss design and city staging with you too, that's not my job, it will be yours soon I guess. As living, I work in a mechanical studdies office, and my job is to engineer production lines. Every body at the office have seen it, we share the same feeling and the same smile. That "thing" have too small motors to stand any serious milling job, those unsupported rails on that 4 pillars will vibrate like hell milling any hard surface. Through, it's a 24000 rpm spindle, it's weight is about 5kg. The overall gantry+Z element weights too much for that rails. Trust me or not, but this thing is poorly engineered, even a student should do better. Don't be impress by aluminium plates and leadscrews. Through, it's exactly that traditionnal russian tank engineering : oversize overall parts, except weakpoints especialy where you shouldn't. See for example that M5 screews, it jumps to the eye like an apple. If the gantry hits a pillar, they will broke quickly. This thing is far away to make a proper milling machine. I think about machines everyday, and that's my opinion. If you want to think it's a good machine, I don't mind. No problem

Machine for engraving as well as milling materials such as modeling wax, wood, plastic, PCB, bronze, duralumin, etc.
