I have successfully completed the assembly of my DIY CNC machine, and the culmination of various small efforts has resulted in the creation of this beautiful machine. The entire build process took six weeks to complete, preceded by six months of dedicated research and CAD design for the project. Witnessing the transition of this machine from a mere concept on a computer screen to a tangible reality is an immensely gratifying experience.

My next task involves the installation of hardware and the intricate wiring of electronics. Additionally, I plan to enhance the machine by adding a wooden board to its base, exploring ways to securely fasten it to the cross sections of the y-axis frame. I hope you've enjoyed following this series, and I sincerely appreciate your support throughout the journey.
