Is there a reason you chose gantry style, is it more rigid?
Ive seen people retro fitting mills but i never thought of actually making the frame/chassis from scratch, just awesome.
So InventIt, are you working off plans you bought or did you design the plans your self?
Ive been looking at retro fitting a big old mill or even retro fitting a new mill but im curious if the CNC mill you're building would be more cost affective than retro fitting. Because retro fitting requires a good base mill to start with obviously and adapting the motors etc where you are making the mill as you intend from go.
If you bought the plans can you tell me where to get them?
Keep up the great work mate
