Quick and Simple V-Slot Gantry System. This example build shows how easy it is to make a linear actuator using a few OpenBuilds Parts. You can mount this system an many ways so be sure to download the example models.

This is a PCB designed to control a laser Engraver CNC

I've made a 3D printer

Here it is my intention to show what was involved in adding a CO2 laser to my existing CNC machine.

The Eggbot is an open-source art robot (drawbot) that can draw on spherical or egg-shaped objects.

Design of a multifunctional CNC machine.

As a 3rd year mechatronic engineer with a plan to print my 4th year thesis project and with no elegant backup plan, I ran into a problem, I'm gonna need a bigger printer. Loving the DeltaPrintr kickstarter, but needing it before the end of next year I have resolved to make my own.

Designed from the ground up as a low cost, highly scalable delta printer. This printer has been built as small as carry on luggage size, up to an 18in wide print surface and is capable of larger. Approximate cost is low to mid $500 range start to finish, including electronics for a basic model.

Dual extruder 3D printer and laser cutter.

A quick and simple saw stop build.

An X-Y Stage created from two self contained acme screw linear actuators. This build was published as an example of how many of the OpenBuilds Parts can be used.

I hope to have a working prototype built soon.

A work in progress. working to refine the print head/carriage to integrate a bed level probe directly into the print head.

The X/Y table system is a great starting point for many CNC projects giving you the ability to move an object on the X and Y axis in a simple compact style.

Converting a ShapeOKO into a 3D printer.

I have wanted a 3D printer for a while. I had thought to convert my ShapeOko machine to a 3D printer BUT after looking at having to replace the electronics with new and the small form factor. I went looking for a kit which would do what I want. Well I found it. It is the MakerFarm i3v printer.
