DIY Dremel CNC #3 electronics, software and firmware (Arduino, aluminium profiles, 3D printed parts)

Would have been nice to see it work with a dremel. That's what the video is about.

Congratulations for your work.where i can found the 3d parts?
Thank you

I ordered the 10A Power Supply because my dremel is powered on it own AC cord and I did not think I needed 20A to run the three Axis, Did i mess up or will 10 A run the three motors. I am powering one Z, One X and One Y (not 2 Y). Appreciate your input. I posted My adaptor for this Dremel Drill Press conversion to CNC, I know its light weight but my work is small light metal model trains, Thank You, Dennis

Update Nov 27 2023 I have completed the conversion of my Dremel Drill Press with Micro Mark Mini X Y Table into a version of your DIY CNC Mini Milling Machine. So far I used the Dremel Carriage with a unique Adaptor to the Dremel Drill Press Stand. All your recommended Digital stuff. I have only the Z axis operational and yesterday I machined a test part to verify the manual job of Z would work with manual operation of the X Y Tables. It was evident I need to continue to convert the mini XY table to CNC ASAP. I have ordered the Couplers and the CNC Shield of course has the Sockets and I also have the required A4988 drivers. I want to share the CNC Shield is a marvelous tool for us. Spindle control is a little messy but boy does this Shield Save a Bunch of time. I was so happy to see the Stepper motor take on in my first test. Now we are thinking about a load unload robot and some other tools we can use on our train layout. Thank You So much young man.

Hi! how do you tell the software the build plate volume mine just keeps on hitting against the rails

How do you connect dremel to the board and power supply? I don't see instruction in vid #4

hello, would you please tell me what is the online software you used to convert the sag to gcode ?

Cześć, fajnie że mamy takich lub przyszłych kreatywnych inżynierów. Nikodem dwa pytania? Jakie dokladnie silniki krokowe użyłeś? A drugie to masz dwg? Wymiary platformy roboczej z tej sklejki?. Nie znalazlem w żadnym z Twoich udostępnionych plików. POLISH POWER. ! PROJEKT SWIETNY.

Excellent video shooting and editing skills! Respect.

super

I have built the machine but my Z axis just vibrates. I have changed the Stepper motor driver and cnc shield by issue remains unresoved

YOUNG MAN, WELL DONE.

Hola amigo gran trabajo ....

Awesome! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

How did u convert image into gcode?

I want buy from you. How much?

how to set dimension x,y,z axis on firmware?
are we can change dimension or expand it .
thanks,,

Would be possible to run NEMA 23 with your setup? Same drivers/arduino and everything else

hello my friend, nice video that you made, i made my self a arduino cnc router, and your instruction helped me a lot, thanks and a big hug from BRAZIL

Am building my own CNC , using nikodem video . It's awesome 😍 . I want to know why did he put the jumper on all the CNC shield ? For X y z and A . Anyone?

Awesome work

Hi whats up?
i was woundering about how microcontroler(arduino ) undrestand g-code which sent to it from pc .
For example when i press the top arrow of my keybord in computer it goes one step toward and vice versa

The idea is to keep all of that white smoke inside the wires and boards. If you let it out then you have to replace them.

very nice dear

Wich vref did you used on the A4988 driver?

Ardiuno codes??

I appreciate your dedication of the CNC router

It gives error 20 error. Can you help with this?

What parts are specifically for the Z axis? I'm looking to build just an X and Y axis model.

fajnie

great great build. I want to build one and wonder if i can make one which has a longer Z axis. How do i do this?

I did the exact same thing, but after letting my program run for about 2-3minutes the drivers with coolblox become extremely hot. What am I doing wrong?

Nice Project, but the music sucks.... :)

Grate job
Thanks You. From Greece with love.
Keep working.

somehow I can't download the CNC.js programma. Would anyone mind to help me out? Might sounds a bit silly, but I can't find the download button

Grate job
Thanks a lot
Keep uploading..
Keep educating..
Keep growing.....

Nice project. Hugs from Brazil.

Could you please make a video similar to this, but, for a homemade 3d Printer using Marlin?

Did you make any changes to the grbl marlin codes? You need to configure two motors for X-axis, right?

Pls help. i can't use my cnc machine, i used timing belts for x and y axis

I know that this video is a little old now, did you ever get an error when putting the code onto your arduino? Like the file was too big?

Byś tabele w invenor zmienił..,

Hi brother, could you pls share the circuit diagram with me???

can i use grbl with arduino pro micro ?
because that's the only one I have and have no use for it

Saya Indonesia. Ingin sekali buat cnc dengan Arduino uno, cnc shield, drv 8825, dan 4 nema 17, bisakah Anda membantuku, Terima kasih

I have finished with the physical DIY CNC machine and now I am trying to hook up the electronics. I have been trying for over a week and am getting frustrated. I have an Arduino Uno with a CNC shield and this is connected to my computer.
I have downloaded Grbl to the arduino and that went well. I am using Universal Gcode Sender and when I bring it up on the computer, I checked that it has the same port as the Arduino. I downloaded a simple Easel project, and generated Gcode. I know the Gcode is good, since it came from an Easel project. When I bring up the UGS window, and then open the connection, everything is fine. But when I upload the Gcode from the Easel file the UGS, I get a message that the 'machine status' is disconnected. I do have the 4 cables from the stepper motors plugged into the CNC shield, but still get the error message that the status is disconnected. Could I have a bad CNC shield? Is there a way of testing the CNC shield? Any help?
