Don,
Thanks for the photo and info. I'll keep that in mind. I'm going to resolve the leadscrew and drive pulley, belt, and stepper system issues and then start working on the gantry. Last will be the Z axis construction.
I'm spending too much time on the computer reading about CNC and not enough time working on the CNC router build. I'll be checking here every day but spending more time building.
Please post a photo of your router taken during a parts cutting session if you don't mind. The more wood chip and dust the better. Maybe the jealousy will help speed up my build........
