We had some free time at work and we put together a diy small cnc ;)from available parts from old machines and we use an ancient computer to control everything:p.. Basicly a mate of mine do the most of the work..I just help him to finish it and offer him a rocker cover for testing proposes..:p
I was quite surpriced by the result and the accurancy of the machine.
The program gives accurancy of 0.0002 mm but our structure limit the accurancy to 0.002mm wich is enough for any diy job i think!

Here a low quality video of the machine working and the finished rocker cover..wich will end to a friend as a gift for his trust to me!
Enjoy!

Wow thats insane! Haha i love it. Im really impressed with the durability of the dremel as well tbh, i didnt realise they took that much beating, what kind of bit do you have in it? And how do you deal with in accuracy as far as wearing of the bit is concerned?

Dremmel is modifiyed aswell with double ceramic bearings at both sides of it. The cutters of it are for inox works so very fast cutters to the aluminium.All the accurancy is controled by the program. (same program is used to profesional big cnc machines). The program drives stepper motors and linear bearings and do all the trick.
Video is really very unfair to the actual look of the detail of the writing.
