CNC Mini Mill Made From HDPE, Steel, Aluminum & Cast Iron

Here are a bunch of good pictures of my latest CNC Mini Mill concoction. It is made using HDPE board material from the Home Depot, steel tubing, aluminum and a cast iron angle plate from Enco. It ended up being a heavy (more than 40 lbs) and solid little machine. I built this for around $100 not including the 25,000 rpm spindle motor. Take a look at the pictures.

  2. Great job. CNC, or computer numerical control, allows a computer to dictate the moves a machine makes to perform cutting function. CNC machine are also helpful in to speed up production at large manufacturing plants . Thanks for sharing this post.

  4. Milling, as well as other machining process, is for purpose of making a precise component out of a raw material. The precision is mostly demanded in the dimension of the components (length, width, height, depth, 3D surface profile etc.), also in the surface finishing quality.cnc mill
