Hi All,
Here is a PCBMilling. Dave Kush built the machine by just
loking at my website. I did give him some FREE info.

Very cool! I notice that even though he built it on his own, he
still recommends buying your plans.

I love the way he built the spindle!

Here's the link to all his projects, worth a look:

Hi Steve,
Dave is ok in my book! He was honest from the
start. He just needed to know about milling bits and what
programs to use. What is really scary is I also designed
a simple spindle unit. I stopped work on it at the end. It
needs a machined part. An adapter to go from 1/4" shaft to
a 1/8" bit. We think alot alike. He started thinking about
a simple indexer. Then he stopped by my page and found one!
More and more people are milling circuit boards.
Dave is using round pads. They look nice but the cause
lots of lines of code. This can come back to bite you if
you have to rework the code. Almost one hundred lines of code for
each pad. I use an eight sided pad. Daves machine is very tight
with the use of the antibacklash nut-spindle and machined guides.

BTW, I see that Enco has what appears to be the same thin air die
grinder that Harbor Freight Tools has. The difference for me is
that HFT is within a few minutes drive of me, and Enco is about 45
minutes away. So I can try the HFT's one and if it has too much
play I can return it easily.

I'm gonna have to replace my Dremel eventually, anyway, and I've
got a decent compressor already. So even if it isn't quite good
enough for a mill/engraver, I can still use it.

The hose on it is -very- flexible. I think it just blows the
exhaust out around the head, though. I'd prefer a more controlled
output so I could use it as a venturi vacuum to remove chips.
