Understanding the Cronos Arduino-based grbl cnc controller After a time with a multimeter and scope, the othewise-undocumented Cronos board for home-build cnc machines has revealed some of its secrets ...

Control is thanks to an Arduino Mega fitted with a RAMPS board, running the Marlin firmware. The plan is to use the machine to test out a variety of CNC machining techniques.

He collected scrap from nearby electronic shops to try out new things.“I shortlisted a few projects and finally decided to design the cheapest four-axis CNC machine. It cost me just Rs 1,500.

To controller this CNC machine we need a microcontroller board called arduino Nano and we need motor driver IC for each stepper motor that is L293D IC. All the electronics components are solder on ...

Young maker and Arduino enthusiast Nikodem Bartnik has created a fantastic Arduino CNC machine by converting a Dremel cutting tool and using a selection of 3D printed parts and aluminium profiles.

And gosh darn it, did they ever succeed! The build makes use of an Arduino Mega, broken Playstation 3 drives, a few spare L293D ICs, some hot glue, and wood.

Art student Dan Henriksson built this gorgeous representation of a time machine using arduino circuit boards and a CNC milling machine. This is geek DiY ingenuity mixed with science fiction art.

For a certain kind of handy geek, the journey is way more fun than the destination. That’s why Patrick Hood-Daniel, founder of buildyourcnc.com and author of the DIY CNC bible Build Your CNC ...
