Description
A set of Cupcake CNC X-stage DXFs converted for cutting on a CNC router with a 3mm (or possibly 1/8") bit. Slots have also been resized for 5.2mm plywood.
A couple of things to note:
1) There are a couple of places on the stage and front that will need corner cleanup with a file to remove the radius left while cutting.
2) The lasercut slots for engaging the timing belt obviously can't be cut with a 3mm bit. My solution was to recess the area of the slots so that a short section of timing belt can be glued in, but if anyone can think of a better solution I'd be happy to hear it. I have included an STL file of the rib.
3) Some of these parts are pretty delicate, so caution is advised.
