i am researching building my own cnc router and could use a little help
i would like to see a machine about 4ft by 4ft
i would mainly be cutting 3/4" soft wood
it would be running a 2 or 3 hp router
i would need a repeatability of around 1/32"
speed up to as fast as the router could cut
one of my biggest roadblocks is sizing the moters and ballscrew without being
an engineer
like saw for instance my gantry setup was 50lb?
would i be ok with steppers or should i go with servos
and how much would they cost
i would like to keep this inside of $6000 or $7000 total
i may be dreaming i dont't know?
any and all help would be greatly apreciated
thanks
by the time
