Ooznest, a UK-based supplier known for RepRap 3D printer components, has launched the Ooznest OX, a high-quality CNC router kit designed for hobbyists.
Building on its origins in 3D printing at Cambridge, Ooznest is expanding into the wider maker community with the Ooznest OX. This new CNC machine allows users to create functional parts from materials such as wood, plastic, and aluminum.
The Ooznest OX is a comprehensive kit aimed at the hobbyist CNC market. It employs the widely favored V-Slot extrusion system, providing the machine with exceptionally smooth and precise linear motion. The machine features NEMA23 stepper motors driving all axes, with GT3 belt motion on the X and Y axes, and an ACME lead screw system for the Z axis. It uses the CNC xPro for motion control and includes cable carriers to ensure safe operation.
The fully assembled Ooznest OX is available now at different price points and sizes to meet various needs. Options include a 500x750mm model priced at £969 and a 1500x1500mm model for £1202.50. For more adventurous makers, a mechanical kit version starts at £570, offering a base platform to customize with different electronics and motors.
