3D model description

Here I go, again...
This is a little bit improved V9 version, but it implied several remixes and changes, so I had to publish it as new project.

It's my latest version of Ooznest OX CNC Machine (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1684109), well designed, very strong and well documented (I advice to go there and here and read all carefully).

You can configurate it as per your need: motor type, blower, vacuum, laser and so on.

UPDATES:
2022-10-02
Added an LCD2004, an SD reader, so you don't need anymore PC and USB cable.
Added Laser support and a blower too, having read this is the best solution to avoid black baffles on wood; not too much effective, but...
This upgrade uses an Arduino Uno to communicate with Arduino Mega.
It took a few of time to realize a simple and versatile software; I gogled around but I found only few codes, working and not working, but no one satisfied my needs.
So, a function there, a function here, I realized my own code, simple and effective.
As you can see, after job ended it resets and asks again for SD; this way you don't need tu shut down and restart.
There's anyway a little limit: on SD card must reside just one file and no directories; no one is perfect, sorry!
For laser I designed a blower too, having read this is the best solution to avoid black baffles on wood; not too much effective, but...
Al necessary items are pre-fixed with "LCD_".
Arduino code and modified library GRBL are into CODESENDER.ZIP.

Remixes:
- X axis moved on up to avoid collisions, dust and so on
- Z operative range now is 90mm
- improved Y axis carriage
- Arduino Mega + RAMPS are now used, due to lack on spare pins on Uno + CNC shield
- added spindle motor variable speed
- added CW-CCW capability (optional, see below) to perform automatic tool changing
- a lightweight Z carriage allowing a 90mm Z height; who is interested to can find it here

Several options are available:
- Cyclone dust collector, see uploaded CYCLONE.ZIP
- a little blower, see uploaded BLOWER.ZIP
- a very simple modular ATC
- an 8-10" tablet support, see here
- support for Makita mill Chinese clone, see MAKITA_SUPPORT.ZIP
- support for cross-hair laser pointer

Included .STEP of all items, see STEP.ZIP.

Instructions
Y Axis
(see picture above)
- at exactly the center of 2060x454mm cut away an 25x20mm (HxV) portion of material
- at exactly the center of 2060x437mm drill an 10mm hole

Feet
Glue circular shape 10mm thick rubber pads into feet bottom.

INSTRUCTIONS LCD+SD
When you've to access Uno or Mega to flash firmware, you must put the switch PC/SD in PC position; this way the RX/TX lines are interrupted. This is necessary because USB and RX/TX are not to be used at same time.
Apply same above when using CNC from PC via USB.
Laser:
When using a Laser, make connections like in second schematic picture.
PWM is from D6 pin in RAMPS; it was necessary because of 5V TTL needed by laser.
In defaults.h/DEFAULTS_RAMPS_BOARD set
#define DEFAULT_LASER_MODE 1 // true

CNC:
In defaults.h/DEFAULTS_RAMPS_BOARD set
#define DEFAULT_LASER_MODE 0 // false

Software
I'd advise to use Gnea GRBL for compatibility with almost all CAM software around Read it carefully
- decompress GRBL-MEGA_5X_1L.ZIP somewhere and copy the resulting grbl_Mega directory into your Arduino IDE libraries directory
- run Arduino IDE and set board tyo Arduino Mega
- load \libraries\grbl_Uno\examples\grblUpload
- flash to board

To manage my CNC I use the friendly UniversalGcodeSender (UGS) .
I uploaded my own GRBL version, ready to be used; you can modify everything there

The optional 5mW cross-hair laser pointer may be dangerous for your eyes.
Take all precautions to avoid hazards

Manufacturing settings

Layer 0.20mm
Infill 35/50%

I'd suggest to print X and Y plates with:
. nozzle 1.00mm (8hrs vs 20hrs)
. layer heigth 0.8000 mm
. infill 35%
. infill type Full Honeycomb
. top solid layers 5
. bottom solid layers 5
. outline/perimeters shells 5
. speed: 1500 mm/min (25 mm/sec)
. bed 60Β°
. extruder 240Β°

all other items:
. nozzle 0.4mm
. layer heigth 0.3000 mm
. infill 50%
. infill type Full Honeycomb
. top solid layers 10
. bottom solid layers 10
. outline/perimeters shells 10
. speed: I work at 3500 mm/min (58 mm/sec), it's up to you to decide...
. bed 60Β°
. extruder 205Β°

This way the items will be enough strong and you'll save much filament.
