http://www.instructables.com/id/20-CNC-Machine/
Image Notes
1. The victim
Image Notes
1. So much fun
Image Notes
1. Harden steel rod Could be used for axis if you can locate 2 alike
2. Cold cathode Could be used for a light box
Image Notes
1. Parts
http://www.instructables.com/id/20-CNC-Machine/
Image Notes
1. Stepper motor or aka the holy grail
2. Bushings
step 2: Tools
Now I tried to build this with the bare necessities so I could show you that it is possible to
make a cnc machine with very little.
Required Tools:
Drill
Screw drivers
Tap and Die set
Rotary tool
Hack saw
Vise or some form of clamping device
Pliers
Drill bits
File
Center punch
Recommended Tools:
Band saw
Table saw
Lathe
Bench grinder
Bolt cutters

Image Notes
1. Hack saw
2. Drill
3. Vise
4. 3ft aluminum rod
http://www.instructables.com/id/20-CNC-Machine/
Image Notes
1. Expanded PVC
Image Notes

2. Hole for motor
Image Notes
1. Z axis
http://www.instructables.com/id/20-CNC-Machine/
Image Notes
1. 1 1/2"x1 3/4"x1/2" Square blocks
Image Notes
1. Square blocks with the rods through them
Image Notes
1. Acrylic Sheet flipped over and aligned straight
2. Square block ready to be glued
3. Use acrylic glue for maximum strength and clean look
Image Notes
1. You should end up with something like this. Repeat this step to make all three
axis.

Image Notes
1. Grid paper is a good way to get your holes in parallel.
Image Notes
1. Pretty
Image Notes
1. Recycled Printer stepper motor attached
http://www.instructables.com/id/20-CNC-Machine/
Image Notes
1. Screw that attaches stepper motor
2. Aluminum coupler I made The one I made use's a set screw but you can glue it

If you attach the proper tip, couldn't you also use this for metal part fabrication?

Hey guys I dont have any stepper motors but will the small $6 ones from adafruit industries work?

you don't need a five pin, the place the coils connect in the middle, just chop it off.

Fortunately, in TurboCNC terms, SHAREWARE means that you don't get the sources. No limitations at all.
But, if you want a software with sources (not EMC and working in MS-DOS), then look for http://moriscanet.blogspot.com/2008/11/cncpro-pdsoftware.html
dagenius says:
You should make one of a 3D printer, not a mill, sort of like the reprap/repstrap.
dylanwinn says:
What exactly is the workable area for this? It looks like it couldn't be much more than 6 x 6 inches.
countable says:
Surely if you need an area larger than that, you could scale it up. These are just dimensions the author used.

I am having a hard time finding the controllers (e.g. like servo II) Were are they in this instructable?
nightcreep20 says:
you should build this and sell them for 50 for a $30 profit
060537 says:
I don't think I can build this within $50.The tools are so expensive.
buryo says:
Congratulation! Nice project, but can you post the electronics for stepper motors?
randhee says:
What kind of glue?

hinow41 says:
you needn't use acrylic. steel, al, wood, pvc, would all make do
