Easy build CNC - Low Price - 2838 - $375
by GrabCAD
Last crawled date: 1 year, 11 months ago
Here's my 3D CAD design of the new CNC.
All the brackets can be milled on the 3018 CNC (even the original) with a few tricks. The new machine is bigger, more sturdy, heavy duty, faster and more precise.
All the rails on the 3 axis are fully supported, SBR20, very sturdy.
The stepper motors are NEMA 23
At the end of the video, I showed how smoothly it cut Aluminum. Everything went really smoothly, from preparing all the parts, assembling the machine and milling at the end.
The cost at the end of this build is about 375USD (to be generous).
Here is the list of the parts and the cost in details (with the link to buy - Price might be different from what I bought before the COVID-19 Pandemic):

In the end, this build is much better alternative to upgrade your 3018 CNC. With the larger working area, more powerful and more precise, this machine will give you a lot more potential to make stuffs.
I hope you will consider this design for your next build.
