Building a PrintNC in Nepal

In 2021, I finally started building a proper CNC machine, the PrintNC V3.0. It’s got a cutting area of 1000 mm x 1000 mm, with Z travel of 120 mm. The spindle is a water cooled 800W spindle with ER11 collet. I originally used the standard breakout board for controlling the machine, with LinuxCNC, but I’ve recently upgraded to a Mesa 7i76 board. I post various things I make with this machine on my instagram: @yalacnccrafts

Door signs in hardwood

I do a whole bunch of carvings in hardwood with people’s names. These are used primarily as door signs, or decorations inside the house.

Large multi-layer MDF signs

Some of the pieces span the full cutting area, and require multiple layers for different colors.

On the other end, its accurate enough to make small PCBs with high repeatability.
