You've probably never seen a robot move like THIS before.
Go to www.pcbway.com for all your parallel axis tripteron component machining needs.
It's shiny, and it moves on it's own, but what is it even good for?
Thanks to Dan Rudman (www.youtube.com/@Rudmin) for allowing the use of his footage, and for sparking me on this adventure.

I made a precision gearbox - with NO GEARS.

If you want to build your own Cyloidal drive, let www.pcbway.com take care of the machining. This was one heck of a project, but I made it in the end. A (nearly) zero-backlash 4th axis for my home made milling machine. If you want to follow the projects a little closer, head over to www.patreon.com/NotAnEngineer. @InheritanceMachining had to build a bigger box of shame because of me, go watch t...

I made a steady rest because I suck at planning
Переглядів 123 тис.7 місяців тому
A failure to plan, is a plan to fail, that is, unless you're like me and won't let anything stand between you and a bad idea. I designed a part that's too big for the machines I have access too; the sensible option would've been to scale back my hopes and dreams, but instead I cobbled together a brand-spankin' new steady rest. With a little help from the home-made milling machine. If you want t...
I "fixed" this cheap Chinese tool
Переглядів 287 тис.9 місяців тому
I was sick of manual tool changes on my DIY CNC Milling machine, so I bought this cheap BT30 spindle with automatic tool change capability from AliExpress on impulse. It wasn't long before I started to regret it. Watch me stumble my way through two (2) attempts at taper grinding, and finally settle for a barbaric final solution. If it wasn't clear from the video, you should NOT buy this spindle...

    I am "actually" an engineer and I must say I am really impressed by your skillset. I absolutely love the fact that people can learn anything these days if they want to. Lucky for me, I come from a place where degrees cost more or less nothing, just need to pass the exams or you get locked out forever.

    By definition of the word engineer, you are an engineer... what you mean is you don't have university qualifications .... got news for you, the guy that invented the wheel didn't either man! I have no qualifications in computer science or software engineering... just that I've been coding since 1980! From Fortran and Z80 and Basic to Rust and Python and MoJo is my latest... Am I a coder? Or a wannabe coder?

    Maybe annealing the welded assembly before starting the flatening process would have helped with the temperature differencial deformations you got? I mean, it would still deform with temperature but that deformation would theoretically be more uniform if there wasn't residual stresses within the part due to weld contractions.
