My 3D printed CNC cuts steel!! I made a couple of modifications to my 3D printed CNC and now I have a way more capable machine. The original design can cut wood quite fast and reliably but with aluminium I found its limits so I decided to make it a bit slower but way more capable of cutting metals. I swapped the Nema 17 for ones with a 1:19 planetary gear ratio and swapped the GT2 belts for HTD 5M belts and now it can push the bit agains the material really hard. I tried to cut aluminium at very high speeds with flawless results which gave me the courage to try and cut steel and surprise! It cuts 1.5 mm steel like butter!!
