I do not share Jake’s concern and think this would be a fantastic tool. I’ll get it working and also set up attachments for lasers and such.
But right now I’m in no position to move heavy things until my back heals. Would you be able to bring it to west Oakland?
I wasn’t really expecting there to be room at sudo, I just know there are a lot of like minds there and maybe someone wants it for themselves. :)
Hi Jack! I think I remember using this back at Sudoroom in 2012 at the
original space on 22nd street!
Thank you so much for letting us use it. It's a generous offer, but I'm a
little concerned that the Z-axis is limited to just a couple of inches of
travel, and there's no way to machine parts greater than a couple of inches
thick? Is that right?
While i'm very grateful for your support of sudoroom and your offer, i'm
hesitant to say that I think we have the space for it.
Full disclosure though, I brought our Yaskawa K10S robot which works as a very
large CNC! I look forward to firing it up again and showing people how to use
it.
