Makerslide 1Meter Rostock Max V2
Posted: Fri Dec 16, 2016 2:22 pm
Hey everyone. I am stoked to post this Rostock Max that I modified to use Inventable"s aluminum Makerslide. I few years back I got the Shapeoko CNC kit. Since then I have upgrade to bigger router and was looking for a good use of the linear slides. I found SeeMeCNC's opensource files and modeled it up in Vcarve Pro to fit the Makerslides. These are 1 meter length and glad to say that the stiffer Makerslides work good for the extra build height. This has been a long build for me but I wanted to test out and confirm everything works okay before sharing files. I used .25 mdf and its working fine. Other changes Ive made from original V2 is this effector ( http://www.thingiverse.com/make:234327 ) and a flying extruder mount. Attached is one dxf of all parts. These drawings are dogboned for a .25 bit. Sorry to say that the flying extruder mounts for the slides I cant find. This I modeled custom to fit the stock Rostock carriage parts and had these printed up at my library. Also made custom fit spacers for top/bottom belt pulleys with wood dowels. Last upgrade was to the Smoothie Board and still in process of figuring out a good mount for it.
But I hope someone finds this useful if you have makerslide pieces lying around.
Cheers
