Stinger V Micro Mill
While building my OX AI I found myself with left over v slot and thought to myself, what do I need that I can build using them? Well since I make a lot of my own PCB boards for projects I figured a micro PCB mill would fit the bill ;) With inspiration from the OX and OX AI I give you the Stinger V :)

Laser V
With such great success/attention my laser got, I ended up with a good friend that would like to dabble in stencil art and so I have decided to share my build with him and you here :) I will be using all the same electronics as in my previous build except the driver boards I will be using are the famous reprap 4988's they are more easy to come by and cost less. I will also be using open builds mini v wheels/v groove extrusion just so I can get a feel for their versatile products

3D Printer
It took me 18 long nights to build it
Delta-Six
Super rigid Delta printer, using 20X40 V-Slot
Software speed control of a brushless dc (Bldc) motor from Mach3.
Although this build is typically Mach3 related there is no reason it cannot be adapted for use with any machine control software which provides a PWM spindle control output. As an addition, an option has now been added which will enable the interface to manually control outrunner speed without the need for a PWM signal.
Dual Extruder 3D Printer and Laser Cutter combo
Dual extruder 3D printer and laser cutter.
CO2 laser.
Here it is my intention to show what was involved in adding a CO2 laser to my existing CNC machine.
Tool position setting Part I
The method used for tool position setting is a matter of personal choice but this is what I do.
Tool position setting Part II.
The method used for tool position setting is a matter of personal choice but this is what I do.
Flexible Axis Revolving Tool-holder
