Hi everyone,

I'm looking into building a 8' x 6' cnc plasma/router table for producing my own automotive and motorcycle parts, furniture, and random art pieces. For plasma cutting, I would like to be able cut through 1/2 mild steel with high resolution at a relatively fast rate with as clean a cut as possible. I have a pretty good idea about how I will build the table. The features I am still researching and considering include the following:

- Nema 34 stepper motors
- linear motion rails/slides and carriages
- rack and pinion systems
- Hypertherm 65
- Gecko 540 motor driver
- Mach 3
