Hi guys - I have been lurking around the various CNC forums for years and have decided to start investigating the possibility of building a Mechmate in Brisbane. I know a few guys in Oz have built Mechmates and would be interested to talk to anyone who has completed one.
One thing that I am little concerned about is availability of materials / parts and whether the Mechmate plans allow for metric materials etc. I am on the initial phase of this project and only really just getting past the stage of deciding on a model to build. There will be a lot of work ahead !
If anyone can point me to CNCZone members who have built a Mechmate that would be appreciated - also keen to hear from anyone else in Brisbane who has a 2400x1200 CNC machine. Cheers guys.
