i dont have much room here in my garage, but i do have plenty of driveway space, so im trying to figure out how i can make myself a 4x4 table that can fit in MUCH less space inside the garage when not in use
what im considering:
2x4 table
1x4 fold up extension on each side
the x axis rails would then be mounted above the 2x4 table section, like a suspended rollercoaster.
the y axis would be suspended between the x rails and the table, and i would make it swivel 90* by removing some bolts, that way the 60" y axis assembly can be folded away lengthwise with the 2x4 table for storage
Ill be cutting artistic / low tolerance stuff with this, so im not concerned about extreme accuracy. the reason i want to build a table is because i have some quite complicated stuff to cut, and a cnc table would do the work in a fraction of the time
heres some rudimentary plans to better illustrate my idea:
