@Lutin Oui tu as bien compris, si tu as la place tu peux prévoir un peut plus pour être sur d'avoir vraiment la surface de travail don tu as besoin, style profil de 1100mm et T8 de 1000mm
A bientôt on espère te revoir vite sur le forum pour débuter la construction !
It would really be helpful to get clarification on what MAYCHANGE, NOTTESTED, and T8 to T14 indicates in the file names. Since the machine has been built I am confused by NOTTESTED and since there are two versions of the files listed as MAYCHANGE I assume the MAYCHANGE version is Deprecated and replaced by the T8 to T14 versions? Anyone that can clarify/confirm this it would be appreciated?
@jadoglio Yes I will do that tomorrow for sure
Hi @Topsie, I just posted some pics and details of my completed CNC based on your design. Thanks for everything! If you could take a look, I have a question about the collet extension I've see you use in your videos.
Thanks!

Just received some T8 lead screws. One is bend a bit. Does it make sense to try to bend it back or will it never be accurate enough for a CNC? Or does a little bend not matter?
A little bend not matter :)
@shoe Mine bend a little too, but only on the Y axis. They would make right and left feet flex where the motors are attached. I didn't like that, so I switched the rigid coupling to flexible ones on that axis and voilà - flex gone. Didn't lose any precision either.
I'm about to start mine. Do you think the gantry can handle more weight? (Or should it?) I'd like to add a laser head in the future so I'm wondering if I should beef up the gantry/lead screws right off the bat. Thanks. Et merci Topsie!
@Topsie are you planning to make the Y-Axis more sturdy in the future? What other plans do you have? Direct drive for Z-Axis? Will there be a final version of V1 and HEAVY?
@Topsie, Launching my prints tonight! On the heavy version, which "ZAxis_Cart" should we use?
The "Rear_52mm_Spindle_Holder_v1-3" seems to fit "ZAxis_Cart_small_DEPRECATED" but is not long enough for the "ZAxis_Cart_bigger" (4 vs 6 attachment holes). Am I lost? I think I am. Thank you!
