oh shit for second i though it was 3d printer
my bad
look at
i just looked at it
"mostly printed cnc"
but it's not exactly a desktop size
i have two 3d printers and enough experience printing practical parts to know how 3d printed cnc frames will go
it's gotta be all metal
also, for anyone who wants an actual good chinese 3d printers, fuck anet, get wanhao
have you printed a gun?
why would i print a gun
it's not a 3d printed frame
when i can print tooling for making nsfw-lewds
just the connections for the rods
yeah that will delaminate and fall apart under the stresses of a router
unless you have an SLS/SLA printer, which i don't and until the wanhao d7 is a bit more developed can't afford
what about
shapeoko
solid, not too expensive
i've considered it
it's a pretty good option
but then i've seen how some of the chinese routers in the $400-$600 range perform after simply replacing the spindle, and it's pretty impressive
isn't it the price range of shapeoko
shapeoko is $1100
the big ones a few hundred more
thought it was cheaper
maybe I was thinking of something else
$1100 is cheap for cnc stuff
it was fkn groundbreaking honestly, cnc machining went from six figure price tags and diy and no middle ground to an off the shelf western router for a bit over a thousand bucks
the real cost is still the tooling though
even chinese tooling worth bothering with is expensive
there's cheap "high speed steel" tooling, but it will break and ruin your day
also
what are the printers you own?
i have a heeeeavily modified wanhao duplicator i3 and i have a kossel
would not recommend the kossel, i have yet to really get it dialed in, was fun to build but cartesian robot is just better
no effector tilt or anything, no ultra-precise measurements with calipers i can't afford required
trivial to add another extruder if you want and don't mind sacrificing some x axis for it
who bought ifive 4s tablet here
