Hi there, long time user and little poster. I built my first table about 5-6 years ago and while it works "decent" I have always wanted better. I have learned A LOT about what I want from a machine over the years.

I am currently using the Candcnc bladerunner and just did the full field upgrade to the latest and greatest.

The new machine will consist of a full 80/20 frame with a welded steel water table and aluminum holding taking for a bladder system

I am using lm76 speed demon rails for the sides.

i designed the gantry risers and had them water jeted.

cncrouterparts rack and pinon.

cncrouterparts slides for the Y axis

Velox Z axis ( I had this one the old machine and will bring it over )

optical sensors for home.

ohm sensing for the torch.

here is where I am standing now, the table is not 100% done I am waiting on some more framing to show up later this week.

I hope to have the rack and pinion fully welded up and installed by this weekend with the rest of the table.

Can you give me some idea of cost break down cost of your table extrusion and gantry for this size of build. What brand of extrusion are you using?.

I'm sitting on the fence debating ...extrusion or steel table like yours.
