Hello everyone, i'm planning to build a milling machine for working on aluminum. I'm trying to decide which type of frame construction is the best, to ensure high precision. I see a lot of machines are built using t slot extrusions, i wonder how stiff they are.
The other option i've thinking about is to make the frame of aluminum plates, bolting them to one another using corner braces. Would that be sturdier than an extrusion frame?
thanks
