OpenBuilds OX CNC Machine. A strong easy to build shop CNC router that can be sized to suit your needs. Many new features have been incorporated into the OX to make it a great router that is sure to inspire!

A cool little CNC router build that uses the V-Slot belt & pinion drive and stock parts.

This will be an Aluminum OX build. Plates and all design credit goes to Mark from open builds. I may add my own touches but mainly this is to see how Aluminum plates perform

Frog CNC Router. Inspired by OX and "Routy". Models provided in SolidWorks 2010 format. Currently 24" by 36" working area.

Design of a multifunctional CNC machine.

I hope to have a working prototype built soon.

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 :)

This small desktop machine is built inside a 300mm cube of 20mm extrusion. Work area is 14cm by 14cm. I used 400 step nema17 motors all around.

Variant on the OpenBuilds OX CNC Router, enlarged with 1500mm length beams for a cutting area of 48" x 48". Based on the original model, the larger of the two, with the addition of a third 20x60 beam on the gantry for strength. Estimated cost is around $1100, minus the router.

Lead screw based Foam Cutter that can easily be adapted to full belt / pinion drive and to CNC.

My first Build with V-slot

Here is my Project A CNC 3000 mm by 1500 mm, with a 2.2kW spindle collet ER25 and 4 stepper motor nema 23 425oz-in. The purpose being to have a large work surface for a minimum cost.

I have been looking for a good solid kit to build off of for some time and when I saw the Ox buildlog I knew I had to have one. Ordered most of the pieces from Open Builds and started planning. Had a nice gentleman named Chris cut the required plates from 6061 aluminum for me (he sells them on eBay now if you're interested) and got to work.

Yet Another Openbuilds Router, my version :-)

This build is a modified Ox build. The long rails are 1000mm. My build includes a solid clamping table.

This build is the documentation of someone with no experience building the OX cnc machine with a Gecko G540 controller and CNClinux
