Ask me what you want to know about the TopsCNC 🇬🇧
In this topic you can ask me what you want to know about TopsCNC. I will add the frequently asked question to the main design page here :
TopsCNC Heavy - Design page
But please, read this topic BEFORE ask a question, maybe someone already ask the same question !
The goal of this topic is to stay clear, so each others can find answers too ;)
J'ai changé pour la makita car elle est beaucoup beaucoup plus performante dans du bois car elle tourne plus vite, je peux avancer plus vite.
La broche 500W je m'en sert toujours pour couper du plexy essentiellement
Hello @Generalbaquedano , oui tu sera obligé d'attendre la version Nema23 car pour cette longueur tu ne trouvera que des vis trapezoidale de minimum T10 ! A part si tu trouve des vis T8 en 1500mm, dans ce cas si tu compte usiné du bois les nema 17 feront le taf
Hello Topsie,
I have your list of screws for the cnc build,but can you provide specs...round head,flat head...
thanks
Hello, you can choose any specs you want :)
Hello Topsie,
I have read all the posts in this topic, I am glad that you wrote that the NEMA 23 version will have 12 mm lead screw, this is a dimension more accesibile for buing in long lenghts. Will you be making a youtube video with the NEMA 23? Will the NEMA 23 work with the same stepper driver?
Thank You and God bless You, Your design was the one who starded me in building my own CNC.
What a wonderful design. I have never thought to build CNC before, but now I in the game too.
Wish you a great paition to complete the build. You have followers all over the world.
One question to you, did you use PLA filament for print?
@Mircea M the nema23 video came out friday, and no Nema23 will dont work with same stepper driver, i will make one video more to explian how to use nema23 and their drivers. Thank you !
@Againof Thanks a lot ! yes i used PLA :)
Hello Topsie,
First of all- what a fine design and what a great effort of sharing it! Your videos are excellent and really professionally made learning material- my great respect!
I've made a little .xls file of Heavy NEMA23 version bill / list of materials with item specs, quantities, link to online purchasing, etc. If there is an interest, please advise where to share it? I guess it's a good idea to have all bits and pieces summarized in one place and to get them revised commonly.
Thanks for your time!

I have definitely started printing parts for the HEAVY model with nema 17 stepper motors.
Actually I have printed two pieces and I have started with the X axis, I have a lot of printing time ahead, I hope that my machine does not break down in the process.
I have 9 Kg of PLA, brand BQ. I hope I don't encounter many problems during printing. I am printing at a layer height of 0.2 and 5 perimeters.
@trgraglia:
Thanks for your advice! After a lot of comparisons with other websites i ordered at ooznest.co.uk. There are about 60 Euros of shipping costs to Germany, but it is cheaper then in other shops at all. I ordered the T8-Lead-Screws there too.
Thank you. Now i have to wait for the postman :-D I hope Corona let him come fast :-D
@izzopetroff hello,
Could I have your XLS files please at godin.rodolphe at orange.fr ?
Thank you
