Or you could just drive the gate of the MOSFET with a PWM signal.

Watch his second video (which I can't post) for more details.

The controller needs a PWM signal not an analog voltage output from potentiometer. There are a host of ways to supply this signal starting with a 555 timer circuit or any small DC motor...

So, so tempting....

Any chance you could post a video of the Monster machining one of the smaller plaques?

Great to hear that you're getting a lot of use out of the monster. What all are you making on it now?

If I may offer some advice I would suggest get the router up and running for a little while before sending it off for power coating. This gives you the ability to weld on an additional mounting tab,...

Further detail on the remaining raptor machines? I checked your forum but couldn't find any info.

Any plans for lighting inside the enclosure? LED perhaps?

I love these build threads. Keep up the great work widgitmaster! This is going to be a beast of a machine.

On a side note, reading through this thread I saw the pic you posted of your small...

jakemestre - Do you have any other info pertaining to your 9x20 cnc conversion? Hopefully a build thread?

And here is a link to a great thread on the Zone that used the B&D Tools kit to convert a G0602.

After being properly assembled and fitted this router base is looking much better. I do have a question. Why does the tabletop rest on 2 small pieces of extrusion? Why isn't it mounted directly to...

Any update on the G0704 or Briefcase CNC builds?

I was scanning my local classifieds and happened across this ad. My initial thought was that his $12K price was far out in left field? What would this machine retail brand new for?

Should be a nice router. Be sure to post of pics of it when you get it and continue with a build log. It will be interesting to follow.

IIRC Mach can only utilize a single pulse.

Do you have any pictures of your router?

I'm excited to follow this build! Take lots of pics.

Also, nice score on the lathe purchase at the tent sale.

Nice looking kit. Do you have any pictures of it installed? What size of ballscrews does it have?

Good reason to buy an engine hoist/crane if you don't already have one.

Seems to have everything. VFD, Linear ways, ac servos... they mention a price of $12,000 but add that it will...

Always down for a road trip! Let me know.

Are you in Winnipeg by chance? I wouldn't mind seeing a MD001 in person if your willing to show it when it arrives.

Whenever I'm in the need of some inspiration for O' s$&t projects I head to http://www.ldrider.ca/cnc/cnc-index.htm.

A couple samples of his projects. Simply amazing!

Wow I'm going to follow this thread closely as this is the identical setup I would like to go with. Thanks for the awesome documentation so far! If you don't mind me asking what part of Canada are...

Another nice thing about the "IH" clone mills from Machine Tool Warehous is that they offer factory ISO 30 spindle upgrades as well as 1 Phase 3 Hp and 3 Phase 2 Hp motor upgrades.

Just a heads up. Novakon is currently offering free shipping in North American for the smaller units it offers.

Predator CNC Editor.... What a piece of garbage. I've spent hours trying to get version 8 to work. When I first started where I currently work, they were using version 7. I wasn't very impressed...

Beta 7 is no longer available?
