Here is the scope
I want to build a 5' x 10' cnc router to cut plastics, wood and aluminum, signs in other words, I already have one axyz machine from canada (atwork and have full access to it) and I can precise make the parts, also have tig, mig,plasma, etc tools so building resources are there, I read a book how to build your own cnc shopbot from a guy called william or williams, very interesting butI;m notintereted in making my own pcb boards and electronics, so the questions are:
is ther a kit that contains all the electronics from the pc port to the motors and switches, I mean a simple universal kit? been visiting the sponsors of cnc for a while but I'm a little lost ther,I can buildt the table, legs,with slides, gantry, ball screws, etc
another question: I have been looking for slides, and ball screws but nothing here or ebay is longer than around 50 or 60 inches, but I need longer components.
any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Steve
