Gave the spindle a cool hat today. The fan turns on whenever the VFD runs and should hopefully increases the airflow through the spindle - keeping it cool, especially for lower rpm speeds. I also changed how I wired up some of the front panel buttons and selector switch a little. I tired to use a signal generator but the frequency was oscillating a little too much, so I bla bla bla. Basically it means I have to redraw a few diagrams, which I should do while I can vaguely remember what I have done. I also more or less finished the next video, which is setting up the VFD so no hat in that one. Will upload that later in the week when I have time and energy. #DoYouLikeMyHat #CoolHat #Spindle #VFD #RouterSpindle #CNC #DIYcnc #Buttons #Frequency #CNCrouter #CNCmachine #Blablabla

Got an interesting new tool for the CNC machine at work. It's a pizza wheel style cutter, which is useful for difficult to process or delicate materials. Unlike the typical scoring action which can lift or roll the material, the round wheel blade rotates while cutting and provides more even slicing pressure. I'm still waiting on my own DIY tangential knife - the tool itself is more or less ready but still trying to find time or a brain to work on the duet kinematic profile which will need to be made specifically for this style of action. #PizzaWheel #WheelCutter #CNC #AXYZ #TangentialKnife #Automation #Tools #NewTools

No this isn't some new fangled crypto currency coin - well I don't think it is anyway. It's the first test cut after rebuilding the CNC router controller. The high accuracy squareness between the X & Y axes was achieves by cutting 100mm squares and measuring between the diagonals, and then micro adjusting one of the dual y axis offset homing distances a little more than the other - which worked out to 0.4mm. Seems like nothing but error become amplified over larger distances. #MootOne #CNC #DesktopCNC #MDF #DIYcnc #vCarveDesktop #ProfileCut #AreaClear #Duet2wifi #Workshop

Just put a serious shift in today. The CNC carriage is looking a bit intense. Like some shaman warrior transformer beast. I'm going to have to limit its internet time so it doesn't get hooked on any mad conspiracy theories. I also got to film some fiddly enclosure shots with the external monitor today, and it's a bloody dream. I could actually see what I was doing - which made filming enjoyable. The final thing I started doing was drawing up illustration of the wiring connections. That stuff is long overdue. Overall it was a good day. #CNC #CNCrouter #DIYcnc #MootOne #MootZero #Spindle #Duet #Duet2 #3Dprinting #Studio #Making

Making maintenance fun. 😂 #Workshop # Maintenance #Dust #WoodDust #PillarDrill

I had a file... Awww... A dreadnought file... Yeay. Made a handle... Awww... A double handle... Yeay.
