TWOTREES TTC450 CNC – Great First CNC!

1. The wires rubbing against the frame is because the drag chain is too far forward on the Y axis (go to 3:02 and zoom in). The rubbing cable that comes out of the end needs to bend back to connect. It can't bend back with enough slack to keep it out of the way of the fame when tied to the side of the upright. Unsnap a couple of bars (not the entire link) from the top of the Y drag chain to release a little more cable. This will let you wire tie it to the back of the upright instead of the side. The video on the SD card shows the cable tied to the back not the side. The cable doesn't get in the way of the limit switch when tied this way (tested).

2. Looks like you may want to get a flat faced endmill and a ball nose end mill to clean up the operations with a finishing passes (meaning set up your main cut just short of the final pass finishing depth and take a shallow clean final pass). The ball nose will smooth out the rounded areas and the flat end mill and a finishing pass (maybe a .10 or .25mm) will clean up the rough flat zones. Fusion 360 free hobbiest version is still the best CNC software. But there's a learning curve. At least until they make it a paid software.

3. I purchased this because of your video!

4. Hi, I'm also a total rookie. In Carveco, what did you select for your Machine File Format? There are plenty of different printers, but nothing I can find related to the TTC450. Thanks!

5. That sign took 10hrs? 😅

6. Hello and great video , i have been researching hobby cnc(do not own one ) . Another option is painters tape on spoil board ,and piece on underneath of work piece with super glue betwen them .

7. Just found you tonight, but good video. The left side cover ! I removed about 10mm along that opening and the cable is no longer rubbing. Also the new upgrade kit is here just waiting for TwoTrees to give me the "go ahead" and show off the new 500watt motor etc…

8. Thanks for the video. Very informative.mine is still in the box I haven't had time to put it together.

9. So dope! Greatly appreciate my friend, Tripods. We are honored that you enjoyed our product! Thanks for sharing your experience with your followers! and welcome all friends to follow Tripods and TwoTrees, we hope we can grow together and become better

10. The only thing you didn't cover is what materials it can cut. Ok it can do wood. What about plastics and metals?

11. Looks like a good machine fro the price. I only have one workspace and my 4 3D printers fill it, plus they make a big enough mess already.

12. since you're also evaluating carve software, you might also try Kiri:Moto (web based) and CNCweb (local, also has gcode sender) – both open source.

13. Cool. Almost affordable.

14. Nice content!!!

15. Fantastic vid! Always enjoy watching your reviews.
