A project log for 3D Printed PCB mill

3D Printed components and other hardware to make a PCB routing machine, which inherently can do other things.

So I moved from a pen to installing a drill with a lil' routing bit. There was to much play in the x/y axis due to my lack of the linear bearings, or quality of them, I dont know. Anyways, I made it so theres 2 bearings in all those spots now instead of one, and its at least 300% better.

It's pretty loud routing on wood in my apartment, so I'm going to have to figure out a quieter medium to test with so I dont get noise complaints (maybe some kind of wax?)

Besides the hardware, I'm working on a CAD program where I can make designs that will be sent to the controller software that I'm also working on.

The goings slow, but that is due to my accessibility to more fun things that distract me. I'll post another video when I get the software more complete and start compiling the cost of the project (minus the 3d printer). I dont know. #qwikshowtout2myboikeown
