Hey guys, today Im gonna share with you my progress on my 2nd homemade cnc router. This machine will have the same capabilities and mechanical parts as my first one this one will just be a smaller version and more easy to assemble since I used cross dowels it can be assemble and taken apart very easy. This machine will be mainly for making custom xbox 360 cases and ps3 and custom pc also custom water cooling blocks. I tried to made this machine the cheapest price possible so I decided to go with bushing bearing and the work awesome, I also plan to add a 2000mw laser cutter capable of cutting 1/8 plywood per pass so I can switch between my router and laser. Well enough chit chat and on to the pictures.

All of the parts and how cross dowels work

The Z-Axis parts and assembly, I made two slots on the z axis so it can slide giving me more axis travel.


The X-Axis parts and assembly I really liked the bushing bearings they are cheap and very precise.



The Y-Axis Gantry parts and assembly



Completed Gantry
