Compact CNC/3D Printer

CNC and 3D printer test with Repetier-Host

Hi friend’s I'm coming with new project was A Compact CNC/3D

printer that was build using waste parts.

First of all personally thanks to Gelstronic who help me for technical support .

This printer totally open source and made using waste parts from CD/DVD writer, Arduino, L293D motor shield and some other tools.

Hardware’s/Components:-

CD/DVD drives

Aluminum Sheet

Arduino Mega 2560

L293D stepper shield

And some other parts:-

-Some nuts, screws and washers

-Thermocol sheets

-Some jumper wires

-Pic of fiber glass

Dimension and Blue Print for Metal Sheet

This Photo gives you size and dimension of my metal sheet that used for attached CD/DVD drive for configure or make correct axis plane. And its also give the pinout of CD/DVD drive stepper motor for connect right pin with shield.

Make Model:-

Take metal sheet and mark all dimension and cut it with
right dimension and drill the holes to connect CD/DVD drives[make sore that dimension that I give it follow my hardware so take your drives and make right measurement on metal sheet before cutting/drilling].

Now Assemble All Axis X, Y and Z Axis on Metal Sheet.

Micro CNC (second test)

First check that your all printer axis correctly work or not, after than go for next all steps.

Now Connect With #~#Arduino and Upload #

Now make all that things with Arduino Mega-2560. for fully automated CNC/3D Printer, here circuit diagram given for the connection between arduino and all steppers. And its source code file also given that's based on tonokip firmware.
