+1 for the previous comments. And I like the table. Nicely machined and ground.

Yes, guys at local CNC workshop did great job on table. For steel structure, I still have to fill it with epoxi concrettent to eliminate high freq vibrations. I will use EPUMENT :

Verry nice Build Verry cool

Progress.. Frame is filled with epoxi concrette.. Next step is filling bridge, and then also filling back side of table with approx 20mm of epoxi, to prevent vibration of table.
My father was very kind to help me with filling frame.. For anybody else planning to do the same thing - leave yourself big holes, as this stuff is very dense and hard to pour.

Progress.. Bottom surface of table is now finished - covered with epoxi granite. I made first cuts today with filled base and covered table, and surface finish looks great. It looks almost like polished. Next step is filling bridge with epoxi.

What is that cylinder for?

It will serve as counter balance for weight on Z axis. There will be additionall servo motor and additional NT30 milling head mounted on Z axis, which will drastically increase driven weight on Z axis to more than 35KG. Such weight would cause harm to Z ballscrew in no time. This is why most of VMCs use pneumatic or hydraulic counter balance cilinder on Z axis.
Nothing more to say but WOWrigid from the looks of it, professionally built, add a watercooled brushless spindle motor then I think you can operate it 24/7, 365 days a year, a workforce of 3 shifts hehe, great build...
Thanks. This 3.2KW ac motor can also work as long as you want, it doesnt get hot. I choosed air cooled due to less potencional problems. For larger tools there will be servo driven NT30 milling head.
Update.. NT30 milling head is now in working state.. Milling with 50mm face mill went very good today, surface finish is also very good..

Some of the cables are already taken care of..

I am curious, what components does your milling head consist of and where would one source these type components from in the US?
