Beech wine bottle racks #32 - Bucharest, Romania
Hello everybody
As all new comers on this site first I just sit and read A LOT. Starting from yesterday I began to cut metal and now its time time to present myself, so my name is Marius and I’m from Romania – Bucharest. This machine it’s a fresh start for my business. At the beginning I was looking for the “professional” model but the prices... The local dealer for Mastercam ask for 99.000 EUR + VAT and software 7.000 EUR + VAT!!! Let’s say the price it’s not a big issue, but EVERYBODY gives one year guaranty period. NOT GOOD! For an industrial machine it’s not good. But the most important it’s the spirit of this site. Sharing of all this information’s gives me a new sense to look at peoples around me . Well done Gerald and everybody! Marius |

Welcome Avo. I am sure you will build the machine of your dreams. What does AVO stands for. I still have an AVO analog meter to measure volts, current and resistance

My nickname
It’s my nickname gave by my friends. My hobby is to ride motorcycles and as you perhaps know every rider has a nickname. It comes from my other principal job: I’m a lawyer

Water jet parts finally arrived !
YES ! Today I get from the water jet company my order.

Part M1 30 332 is either too thick or too many?

Too many
Yes, the guy from water jet company cut 4 pieces but I paid only one.
Now I'm waiting for the motors... Here in Bucharest I found a small company who can provide the electronic parts similar with the Ghecko and PMDX but I don't have the motors to verify their components. Their site is http://www.hi-end.ro. They said the drivers are similar with Gecko. Marius |

Starting a new MM in Romania
Today I made a test when I discovered a "SMALL" problem with the Main Longitudinal Beam.
IT IS NOT STRAIGHT! ![]() So brute force was necessary... At the end on both ends I measured 255,4mm and in the middle 255mm. And the cherry on the cake : I didn't leave 5mm extra for the rack ![]() ![]() |

AVO, your choices are:
1. New beams, which may also be bent . . . . . not a good choice 2. Bend your beams in a hydraulic press 3. Bend the beams by welding inside them, at the correct position. For this you will have to explain carefully which direction the beams are bent, so we can shrink the metal in the right place. |

At the end using force the table is in one piece and it looks like this but the measurements are as I said. You are right, I will check first where is the bend because is not normal to put toghether the table like this even if at the end will come in the right dimension. |

Back from vacation
The ski holidays are over and now I’m back on the project.
Finally the motors arrived ![]() |
#16

Problem solved
I finally solved the problem by borrowing a 10 T press used in car services.
The main beam was bend in several places. Incredible… Sometimes aluminum profile is better than construction steel. I guess… It was a hard lesson because I didn’t check the steel and I just presume that everything is OK. ![]() Marius |

I like to see that Marius - good work with the hydraulic pressing!

Nice!...how mauch did you pay for those babies?
|
#19
|
|||
|
|||
1200 Euro !!! It was a real investment... But I want to keep as much as I can to the best configuration sugested by Gerald.

Hey, I only started suggesting them after a lot of volunteers tried them and said they were good. That was also the first time I started to use them. Together, as a group, we learnt a lot about motors over the last 2 years - my job is only to summarise the facts and throw away the misleading rumours.

Thats the ideea: to get the best from others experience
![]() Gerald, looking at Z axis built by Vladimir I was wondering if these motors are good for that kind of Z axis... Just thinking. Thank you. |
#22
|
|||
|
|||
If you mean to drive a screw axis with a 7.2 geared motor . . . .
That will work, but it will be a very slow z-axis. |
#23

|||
|

How long did you had to wait for these PK 296AE - SG 7.2 motors ?
I just received a price of 270 euros per motor. Waiting time is about 3 weeks. These should be especially made. They are not in stock. Is that normal? |
#24
|
|||
|
|||
I guess is normal because I wait much longer than you. OM has offices in Germany, Italy, UK and I have to buy from local office wich is under supervision of the German... And the price... This is the price because we live in Europe comparing with US where you pay the same but in dolars.
But after all I understand this is the best choice for quality. Best of all, Marius |

It’s been a while since I don’t write but most of my time was wasted because of the material used to build the MM. The steel was bended, twisted in different ways… The rails (from a local supplier who’s doing business with an Italian company) arrived after 2 MONTHS and the bearings (ordered from another company) arrived after 3 WEEKS. I hope the BOB and Gheckos will come faster than that.
Next time I’ll change the suppliers… Here are some pictures with my progress. P.S. And of course I manage to damage the pointer finger with the grinder ![]() But the perspective to be close to finish the table make me to forget all these ![]() Marius |

Good to see some progress again Marius. Sorry about the damage to the digitus secundus - hope it will make a full recovery.

how is possible to weld inside the tube?
|
#28
|
|||
|
|||
The nuts are welded to a strap then it's ends are welded to the tube.
|
#29
|
|||
|
|||
On the exterior of the tube I drill some holes till the strap was reached and inside the holes I weld together the strap and the tube in order to stay with no screws tight on each other.

are you going to use Gecko or hi-end drivers?
