Ok here goes :). I just started Drawing my first MechMate, first cnc machine or any machine for that matter hehe. Its gonna be a loong journy but hopefully with some help once in a while i hope i will get there :). Im a new member here at the MechmMate forum, found you guys when i was lurking around the nett trying to find some hints on how to build a cnc machine. We got one at my Work, a 3000x2000mm multicam 3000. Since we got it i just been totaly facinated on the posibillitys you have with a machine like that. Well after browsing through allot of sites i landed on this fantastic site :). Gerald D! damn man!!! its just so fantastic the work you have done!. and that you are sharing it with everyone is just unbelivable. so thanks man :).
Ok, like i said i have just started drawing my first MechMate. Atm i am using PEU solidwork files. the way i work is that i use the pdf files from Gerald and Peu`s solidwork files. I got two monitors so i run two solidwork sessions. On one i run Peu`s files and on the other i copy the information from his parts and modify them for my needs. It may sound hard i presume, but i am kinda on the learning face when it comes to solidwork aswell so i see it as a good learning method. At the same time i hope to fully understand every part and its function so that when i one day come to the part where i can start finding people to cut the different things from me i know everything that hass to be cut and bent etc 100%. Cause atm i must say its overwhelming hehe. With time i hope i can get to you guys level.
Well well i just wanted to say hi to all you guys in the forum , keep upp the good work :). I thought i would keep a diary or something like that on this forum as i progress, so im looking forward to get to know you guys :). Atm i have drawn 10.10.123 and 10.10.246 with some modification. thought id post some pictures and measurement so that someone can correct me if im totaly off track in the process hehe. Owell talk to ya ll soon. Pictures to come :).
Sorry for some bad english here and there, but you have to excuse a frosen Norwegian hehe.
