$1000 is just way to much for me to put into something like this (that I may never finish!)

What do you guys feel an honest cost on the solsyva machines are? Tiny they look to be about the same as the crankorgan designs. It's been about a year since I looked at either site... but lat I remember they seems just about the same?

At this point I am can't see paying for the plans only to find out I really can't afford to buy the parts.

Bean,
The Solyslva design is 25 X 37 while the crankorgan is 15 X 25. I am leaning towards the crank organ design for that reason. That of course is predicated by my ability to learn CAD, then CAM.

Ohh I like the bigger table.. but then again where would I put either of them.

I have played with mastercam a few times. KInda of steep learning curve to say the least.

[Bill Wann]

lower baffel for a six inch reactor .
Iam working on calcium reactors but not ready to show them yet .

 

[Bill Wann]

its not hard to build one , you could make one out of extruded aluminum , I made mine a little over kill , I love to weld so it pays off.
The stepper motor and controller came from stepperworld for like 300 bones .

 

[Bill Wann]

I used to make my chezy flanges on a router with a template and carpet tape , I love this thing . The auto took abit to get figured out but afert that sommoth going .

 

[Bill Wann]

I read a book on how to build one . got it from amazon . ill find it a get the name . It works great for everything I want to do . The dust enclouse is amust , this thing make ahuge mess . The only draw back is the aliminum for the sheild cost 1200 bucks.ouch

 

[thesaent14]

[Bill Wann]

I thinks I spent around 5k on it .
