My Tool Changer so far.
-
Hi all,
Started designing and building a 3D printer this after the TCT show last year. Was inspired by the E3D Tool Changer.
I decided I wanted a larger print volume than was offered by E3D. I was going to wait for the E3D tool changer heads and mechanism to be available and use theirs. However after I finished the XY and Z I decided to carry on with the heads.
I'm not advocating this as an alternative but just thought it may be of interest.
Here a link to YouTube...

@st-taw Very nice indeed! I'm envious of your home workshop. What equipment you have?

Thanks. I have Myford Super 7 lathe and Myford VMB mill which I converted to CNC. Top frame require a lot of marking out and multiple setups to mill as its range is 320X and 135Y.

@st-taw Lucky man - now I'm even more envious.

Nicely done. Looks like it really zips around.
