I wonder if anyone with a few minutes to spare could help with material & size queries on the PCNC1100 base stand please?
I'm looking at designing a base for the machine, and want to keep it fairly similar to the OEM item, as this seems to generally be accepted as reasonably satisfactory for what it does..
1st Q - difficult to tell from pictures, but is this built around a box section frame, then 'skinned up' with panels on the outside? Would box section size be around 1" x 1" x 1/8"?
2nd Q - Top cover plate with mounting pads. What thickness is this plate please, and how many x-braces run underneath this to support the machine?
3rd Q - apart from adding slope for coolant drain, what other mods do you think would be worthwhile adding into a stand build? More bracing/more access panels/different support/structural changes?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Peter
