Building the most accurate DIY CNC lathe in the world

Just uplaoded my sklupt case mod that reaplces the top case and enables own designs and materials for that little synthesizer on cults.

Mine is applewood milled version with fictive alien squiggles :D

Front plate for Modal Skulpt VA Synthesizer.

This is a case replcement for the Modal Skulpt. Fits without screws as the poti caps hold everything in place. Clone from: "https://git.raise-uav.com/Hermes/skulpt_case_mod.git"

Status: Happy.

Tried Ondsel assembly today with a project that largely stalled bacause of the Fusion360 exodus.

It' s basically a minimal ressource, part count and weight mill for soft plate material or laser applications. Originally inspired by the MPNC roller system.

I like the Gui tweaks and helpers so far and it was mostly frictionless to assemble this project that has been altered by multiple Freecad Version and came originally from F360.

Sure the sketches and informations are largely lost but its enough to make necessary adjustmens to the generally working design:

-> This means I can finally release it in STEP (single parts) and Ondsel assembly format. \o/

It's already brought to the real world waiting for some soldering and testing.

Side Quest finished

Pushed my touch control to a usable state. Found the awesome gerbil lib by Michael Franzl that sped up the process immensly with gbl buffer handling and callback infos.

Its focusing on the most important stuff and has low dependency and uses very little ressources with that 2d preview.

Designed to run on a OdroidC2 with VU touch screen.

Chela Mill Part 2: The Refininging

I’ve rewhacked the gantry design a bit now that I’ve had a chance to play around with various options. It turns out that the shape of ~every moving gantry out there is a pretty good shape. 🤷 The current placeholder model for the spindle isn’t right as I intend to buy an unpowered head and drive it with a servo. I’ve also started filling out a bill of materials (Chela Mill BOM.fods in the root of the repo) as I think of necessary parts and find sources. Recommendations are, ...
