The boxed unassembled CNC from the recent bulk donation is a Genmitsu 3020 PRO MAX. The V2 comes with the controller and PSU pre-mounted and mostly pre-wired with a cable chain for the X carriage, so (based on what we saw when we checked and re-packed the box) it looks like we have the original model, now discontinued. Last price: £341 + VAT.

The original assembly instructions and user guide should be on the USB stick that we have seen in the box.

Specifications

  • Overall dimensions 391 x 461 x 357 mm
  • Effective work volume (X Y Z) 300 x 200 x 72 mm
  • 48V 300W spindle with ER11 collet chuck and 3.175mm (1/8") collet
  • Controller - ATmega328P running Grbl 1.1f
  • Aluminium bed with 6 x 5 grid of M6 tapped holes for workholding

ToDo (on hold)

  • Build & Test
  • Design and laser cut a thin MDF spoilboard
  • Enclosure and chip tray
  • get a 1/4" ER11 collet so we can use many of our existing bits

Reviews give the build time as approx. one hour, so it should be viable to get it up and running in a couple of evenings. However it isn't enclosed, CNC mills are notoriously messy to run, throwing fine chips and dust everywhere, and we don't have a good place to put it in Little House, so its staying in storage till we've moved in to the new building.
