As some may be aware, my new LR4 is getting very close to being ready to tackle a “real” project.
After fixing a loose grub screw, results are looking promising.
“Cookin’ with gas”
And, here’s the project:
Trying to get it done for the RMRRF in May! 
Clever place for the screen, I think I’ll do that too
Yeah, I never got used to it riding on the backside of the gantry, and the machine is too long to put it at the end. I tend to sit at the side as that also allows me to make sure that the cables and vacuum are behaving.
This happens to be the SKR 1.3 control board with the TFT35 V3 LCD. If you happen to be doing the same thing, I can provide some more details and even the STL files. The white plate needs to be offset so that the cables can enter the LCD case from behind. I designed that part so that it follows the contour of the end and actually attached to the holes where the fenders would go.
Hell yeah!
I love it!
Cool chair. Looks like quite a project.
Perfect for the LR4, i think.
Looks good. Gave a subscribe to your channel just to see more.
Using a control board and LCD I had laying around, so I think I’ll need to roll my own - appreciate that though 
Thanks. It has been around for quite a while so there’s all kinds of stuff there, but i do intend to capture some of this chair building process. (But don’t expect phenomenal cinematography… 
)
Well, we are off to the races. The first 2’x2’ panel of this chair is now complete. It took 50 minutes using the Badger bit with 3.1mm DOC and 1500mm/minute.
Here’s the short video:
And the complete panel:
Finally, I just have to say that this capability is just so freakin’ cool!!! If this project turns out to be successful, it will surpass even my carvings in terms of “cool factor”. (Thanks Ryan!)
Man, the chair is nice, but his CNC leaves an awful finish on those cuts…
Lots of issues, of course. Quality of the plywood, quality of the bit, feeds and speeds, etc. The good news is that it may not matter too much since the pieces will be glued up and then sanded thoroughly and finished.
I was worried about this, but decided to see how the Badger does since a careful finishing pass increases the time substantially.
Here’s a closeup of one of the cuts just completed. IMO, it looks pretty promising. There’s a little “fuzz” on one side, but shouldn’t be a big deal.
Wasn’t talking about your cuts but the ones in the video. Yours look great. 
Agreed.
Honey badger don’t give a f!@$
Heck yeah!
Here we are completing the second of 4 panels for the chair using the LR4.
That’s probably enough “show and tell” for a while, unless there are questions or comments.
Next stop: Assembling the chair, probably over in the “Things You’ve Made” topic.
Way better looking cut sheets than the original
Did I miss the finished chair in “Things you’ve made?”
