Thanks again! This is all very new to me, so I'm taking it one step at a time. I think it will all be a lot easier to visualise, measure and understand once I've got the linear rails and the other...

Thanks again! This is all very new to me, so I'm taking it one step at a time. I think it will all be a lot easier to visualise, measure and understand once I've got the linear rails and the other...
Don't have pictures, but I've dry assembled the base and the gantry for now - all measurements are consistent with the HiWin HGR20 rails and HGH-CA / HGH-HA carriages, total space between base sides...
Thanks for the replies! I'm at work right now, I'll take a few pictures when I get home. It's a circa 2012 - 2013 model (life got in the way...), with regular 80x80 profile without a 'lip' on the...
So I'm getting back to assembling bits and pieces, measuring, found the right rails and carriages I need, but it seems I never received my X axis ballscrew (that, or it disappeared during the last...
would you happen to know what size rails were 'standard' for the 48x36" Raptor? I have a kit that he shipped me but never sent the linear motion bits, but I don't have the email correspondence etc....
Hey George,
I have a Raptor kit (32x48) I didn't get around to finishing (life gets in the way), and I either did not receive or lost the linear rails and blocks when I moved a few years back -...

Hey George,
did you receive my last email? Wondering what the status is on my machine...
...that's definitely what I'll be using mine for. Among other things ;)
Aww man, now you've got me thinking how awesome a two-tone black-silver CNC machine would look...
I'm not running a CNC (yet), but 1/2" shaft straight bits for most everything, including hogging out cavities. Sharp cornered cavities (neck pockets, pickup cavities) are cleaned up with a 3/8" or a...
If I can still 'get in', I'm in.
