Learn how to build a huge 4x8 CNC router, the 4x8 PRO 4896 from AVID CNC! I'll go over setting up dust collection for the CNC, getting the machine assembled, setting up Mach4, squaring the table and gantry, and tramming the spindle. In my next video, I'll show the process of setting up the vacuum workholding, as well as a t-track fixturing table, so stay tuned for that next week!

Super jealous of the CNC. Great setup. I had to smile when I saw the clamps get cut. I've had so many of those moments on my smaller CNC that its nice to know I'm not the only one!

Thank you for posting this video. I'm buying the Avid CNC Pro 4896 next month after doing tons of research on buying a cnc machine on the internet, so your video is a Godsend for newbie's like me. I'm very grateful and you are much appreciated.

God bless you guys who actually do the videoing of the build process. I’m the type to be more inclined to just build any project than worry about videoing/editing & posting! 😂 I’m in the process of building my second woodworking shop. We just moved to a 10 acre place on a mountain. So I’m dividing a 36’x40’ 4-car garage in half and adding an additional 10’x20’ room off the back. About 920 sq ft of shop when I’m finished. Where’s my video camera? Not! Good luck with your CNC! LOOKS FABULOUS!

Vacuum tables on CNC machines make a huge difference compared to a regular hold down table. Also calipers instead of a tape measure makes measuring and squaring stuff up on a CNC is a must.

This is an interesting way to setup the geometry of the machine. How about a caliper instead of a measuring tape? For trimming the spindle you usually use a dial gauge.

Thank you for the time you put into this video. I've been reviewing options for when I purchase an AVID CNC and I notice with your vacuum holding system that you can't install a vertical table, or I don't see how you can. Have you thought of installing a vertical table or do you have other tools for that operation? Can you install the vacuum system on the other end of the table so you could put in a vertical table and/or a rotary axis?

@moderntouchfurniture 3 жыл бұрын

Hey Johnny I just purchased your River resin bed frame plans, looking forward to the build. I’m also very curious how your workflows will performe with this new CNC, Avid looks like the biggest bang for the dollar, but with the vacuum, still a good chunk money.

@serdaraytemiz9978 3 жыл бұрын

This is a very high quality kit. Attention to detail is top notch. The only thing I did not like was the cut in half Y axis. I think at this quality level the owners would not mind the extra shipping cost of the longer rails.

Based out of the Metro Detroit area there are 2 places that supply "Rexroth Bosch Group"--their "Aluminum Structural Framing System". Here macho robotics are precisely fabricated in the auto industry using "T"-Slotted Aluminum extrusions. There are an easy 100 companies producing this stuff. I went on line to their site for a few projects. Asked for their one inch thick book catalog, and got a flash drive with the same but also including CAD for everything they have(most people don't have the storage space to download this anyway). Everything can be loaded to SolidWorks enabling anyone to attain exact measurements and all components to make any CNC bridge or gantry milling solutions. Their website will direct to your most conveniently located supply shop that cuts, and packs anything u can dream up.

@craftedworkshop 3 жыл бұрын

Yup, plus I just don’t think I’ll need the 60” capacity 99% of the time. Also, the vacuum works better for a 4x8 system, easier to setup the zones.
