I've had some requests to do an enclosure video, and I finally got around to making one. It isn't the most entertaining video out there, however I wanted to show the enclosure construction, as well as talk about some of the things that I've done since the last video I made about the setup.

Nice work man! 🤘 Can you make a sound test with Open and closed doors . Because Im looking to make a soundproof enclosure and want to see how your works 😁

Thank you so much for sharing all of your work. I've been looking at building my own SFFPC and keyboard cases starting with 3d printing and MPCNC and your videos are super helpful and inspiring.

Brian, thank you for keeping the PrintNC videos coming. I've done the metal work for my machine and and part way through the wiring. Can you point me to some guides on how to wire the limit switches? I went with a mechanical switch and I'd like to have one on each axis with auto squaring on the Y-axis. I'm using the standard parallel port BoB and it has limited inputs. I'd also like to add a plate like you have as well as wire in some stop switches. I've tried looking at the Wiki and on Discord but I'm not having much luck.

Thanks for sharing, looks like a fun and capable build! I'm in the process of upgrading my MPCNC from a Burly to Primo, but already eyeing up whether a PrintNC will be the step after that...

Another way to prevent the binding is by making a thin plate that you mount between the nut and bracket. you put some jb weld in between and tight it lightly, let it cure and tight it down.

5:02 depending on that wood height the foam is attached too. You could print out a flashing (apron or eaves) that attaches to door that chips hit amd roll down to the inside of the wood piece.

Another excellent video! Since you had alignment issues after switching from the 3D printed parts to aluminum, would you recommend sticking with 3D printed for those parts? If you go with aluminum, what process can you use to avoid alignment issues?

@75keg75 Жыл бұрын

15:30 Could you put a PLA/ TPU95 pad between plate and breaking to smush down and make things level/ square? In fish tank rigid tube you have to have some sort of flexible house or it messes it up.i likewise on your machine if everything super rigid it has to be super square/ aligned it it will bind up. A flexible “washer” would surely help but not allow things to be loose.

Nice build. Just be a bit careful with Relays and Inductive (motor) loads generally they have two or three ratings so your 16A might actually be 5A in practice.

These videos are super helpful. When I order stuff off your list, it keeps thinking it is a (possibly duplicate) gift. Are you getting credit for these referrals?

Hi, Sorry for the odd question; how much does the enclosure help with the sound? can you give a estimate (how much you feel) it has decreased? assuming it's normal 100%, would that be something like 60%?

@ProjectsbyBrian 3 жыл бұрын

I would say its closer to 30 or 40% as loud. The spindle is barely audible when idling with the doors closed. Wood cutting is very quiet (shop vac is still sort of cloud) but aluminum cutting is kind of loud. Aluminum cutting in general is going to be kind of loud though. It will be hard to contain those sounds. I hope that helps!

@sergiomejia6360 3 жыл бұрын

Awesome. I would like a spindle like that. Do you know if i can get it on amazon? I don't know what brand it is.

@ProjectsbyBrian 3 жыл бұрын

Yes you can. If you search 2.2kw spindle then you will get a handful of options from different sellers. I will add the kit I have to my Amazon wish list (link in description). Pick which version you want though (110v or 220v).

@ProjectsbyBrian 3 жыл бұрын

Nice! That is a great question and one that I'm not sure if have a good answer for. It really depends on the complexity of the job, tool changes, cycle time, etc. I would say get the machine up and running, and reliably, before starting to price out jobs. Just my opinion.

instead of caring about flow, why not just add a thermocouple to the spindle? That way a glitch won't kill a job, only high heat would (an actual emergency)
