Hello :rainfro:
This is to be my first attempt at building a cnc wood router, Ive been looking to buy a router for a couple of years now but I decided it would be more fun to build one.
Budget is around £2000 with £1000 in reserve.
Not sure if I should use extruded alu for the chassis or go for an all welded steel structure.
Linear bearings will be linear profile rails or supported round rail. Linear profile rails are going to be a good bit more expensive. What are the benefits over supported round rails?
Single drive rods for x,y and z
