Printed CNC Brutus (Metric Tubing)

I want to thank you for choosing to embark on this journey! I started this project as an experiment to see how far you can take a mainly 3D printed CNC router with inexpensive components, the result is hopefully what you will soon enjoy!

Without V1 Engineering Ryan's permission and his encouragement, Brutus would have just stayed a personal shop experiment.

In the files download there is a PDF, that is the assembly manual for Brutus. I strongly encourage giving it a read before you dive in. It outlines everything from suggested print settings, things you will need to assemble, and how to put it all together.

This link will also take you to the most recent version of the manual.

Here is a video of it in action doing the V1 CNC race!

Update 11-14-2023: Added 80mm Spindle Holder V1

Update 10-31-2022: Added Top X Carriage Brace Metric, addresses a rigidity issue when pushing the machine in materials like aluminum. Install instructions coming soon, will need 4 M8x45mm Hex Head bolts for install.

Update 4-22-2022: Added a mount for the Dewalt DWP611 router, I do consider it a test part since I have no way to personally test it.

Update 4-21-2022: Added a mount for the Makita RT070x router, I do consider it a test part since I have no way to personally test it.

Modified to use metric tubing instead of inch.
