Re: How to build a Custom CNC
I just retrofitted my knee mill Bridgeport copy and it is amazing what is out there these days to do this! Mine is based on the Logitrol 3 axis large servo system sold by "lowcostcncretrofits.com of Australia...great package and well worth the $2,500. (I got mine on an eBay auction for $2,000). I use Mach 3 from Artsoft to program and control it...another fantastic value at $159.00 Some pictures are below...
