Hello everyone,
I have finally finished my Taig CNC conversion. It has taken me about
a year to complete. Originally I had planned to build my own gantry
machine from scratch. I purchased the Camtronics 5amp driver kit, 3
Nema 34 surplus steppers, and misc. parts. I got to the point where I
needed access to a machine shop and everything came to a halt. I then
decided to buy the "CNC ready" Taig mill. I figured that I could make
the parts I needed with the taig then swap all the electronics and
motors over to my gantry. I had to make adapters to convert the
taig's nema 23 mounts to my nema 34 motors. Now I have a system that
is quite nice. I have only cut a couple of things so far. I come from
a design background and I now realize that the drawing/design and
cutting of the part is so much easier than the setup. I am still
trying to learn the secrets. Thanks for everyone's help on this
list.
