About this model

This is the first REAL 3D printed lathe that work. I design it to fit almost every 3d printer. All the precision is control by a custom board arduino with NEMA17 step motor. In other therm, this is a CN lathe that can be convert in full CNC mini lathe. This lathe can turn soft material like wood, plastic, resin and some really soft metal. How to build it : ( PART2 ) Fusion 360 link : ( FINAL ) All the links for the parts are in the vidéo description.
