I just purchased the SainSmart Genmitsu 3018-PROVer with the Genmitsu Air-Cooled 300W Brush DC Spindle Motor upgrade kit. Can anyone give me some advice in making this more sturdy for cutting soft aluminum and engraving? Like Liquid cooling air etc. I would like to upgrade the linear rails plus the Ball screw. Any help would be very appreciated.
Thank You.
After watching and reading the suggestions that were left, I decided to send back the 3018 and just build one myself. I guess I will start with the spindle and design the CNC around that. I'm not going to do any industrial cutting with this, just using to cutting various types of Aluminum and wood. But I will need it to do very detailed engraving on aluminum for the model Kitbashing hobby of mine. If anyone can give me a good reliable air-cooled spindle motor under the $350 range I would truly appreciate it. Also what about a number of axis 2,3,4? One more thing thank you for your answers and suggestions, After joining a few groups on Facebook I get mainly get arrogant replies from some of the members. I'm truly a newbie still learning how to stand.
