1Details from the Build Process
This is not the complete build instructions, perhaps I will add that in the future. This is more to show some of the details of the project.
The plywood xwas cut using a CNC router to make a 1/16" deep pocket for the Plexiglas. The CNC makes a rounded corner (1/8" when using a 1/4" bit). So I cut the Plexiglas on a laser cutter to get a nice fit.
When mounting the CoreXY components onto the plywood I needed to make sure the guide rods where parallel. So I 3D printed a gauge to make sure the first rod was parallel to the edge of the plywood.
For the 2nd rod I took a scrap of plywood and put a screw into it so I could make precise spacing between the 1st and 2nd rods and to make sure they were parallel.
Next came the timing belts.
I had difficulty sourcing a large sheet of 36ga sheet metal so I used a bunch of 10" x 4" pieces which I attached with 3M double sided tape.
The numbers are all 3d printed and I used Super Glue to attach the 6mmX3mm magnets
