This video demonstrates the installation process of the CNC's base surface board. This involved drilling and tapping six holes on each of the cross-section pieces to securely fasten the surface board. Additionally, I made minor adjustments to the Z-axis, enhancing the spindle mount position for more flexible mounting options in the future. An issue was addressed where the Z NEMA motor plate protruded approximately 5mm too far, causing the spindle to interfere during upward travel. To resolve this, I cut a 10mm notch into the Z NEMA plate, allowing safe passage for the 2.2kW spindle. Towards the end of the video, I provide an overview of the necessary electronics to operate the machine, setting the stage for next week's video where I'll focus on wiring up all the electronics.
