Parts List?
Posted: Thu Apr 26, 2012 9:56 am
While eagerly anticipating the arrival of my CNC building blocks, I've started securing the various parts I believe I'll need to create something great (basic CNC machine):
Thanks in advance,

- 3/4" MDF + Screws, nuts, bolts, etc
NEMA23 Motors + Electronics
Computer + Software (CAD + CAM + CNC Control)
E-Stop Button
Limit Switches
Couplers (for between the motors and the screws)
Router Mount
3/8" Bearings to support the ACME Screws
3/4" Shafts for the X and Y axis
3/8" ACME Screws for the X and Y axis
- 1. Do I need a shaft for the Z axis and if so what size?
2. Do I need an ACME Screw for the Z axis and if so what size?
3. Is there anything else obvious I'm missing?
Thanks in advance,
